Blue skies, shining on me

I think this post will finally catch us up with the last set of pictures we've taken. This past weekend we stayed home on Saturday. One of Loren's classmates (actually on-again, off-again classmate -- he aged out of her class a couple months ago) and his younger sister came over for a playdate. They live several blocks north of us so we frequently walk home together. Once the kids had all gotten their fill of Loren's toys and looking for the cats hiding under the bed, we went up on the roof to enjoy the gorgeous weather.


On Sunday, we decided to take a drive out on Long Island to Robert Moses State Park. Curt and I had been there once before, but he had a hard time remembering it because it was in the pre-digital camera days (by a month or so). We hiked on the boardwalk through the dunes to the Fire Island lighthouse. Loren walked a good bit of the way there by herself, but hitched a ride back on Curt's shoulders.




Yes, I am looking a little chunky these days. If all goes according to schedule, Loren is going to be a big sister in mid-to-late January!

Whoa! Huge news (no pun intended with the huge). Why does it always seem I'm the last to find out these things. :-)

Major congratulations and I hope everything goes smooth.

Cheryl (and Curt and Loren),

Congratulations. Hope everything goes well.

And clearly, James, you are not the last to find out. I found out after you.

We had not done a big announcement yet : ). Pretty much just our families knew, and anyone who has seen me in person in the last 6 weeks or so.

Great news guys. I'm sure all 3 of you are excited, and Maxine and I couldn't be happier for you. ;-)

Congrats on the new addition!!! It's good to see that you're still a proud father who's strong enough to carry his daughter on his shoulders, .... and keeping smiles on your family's faces.... Way to go Curt and God Bless you Maxine.
