Goodbye Kay and Doug!
We are all so sad to see Kay and Doug Godwin leave the neighborhood, but we're excited to see them moving on to a terrific life in Ashland.

The Little Giggler
Sawyer's now 10 weeks old (almost 11!), and he's really getting into the art of laughing.
For some reason, his favorite thing is me saying "Go Bears." It makes him so excited he just giggles and giggles.
Here's about a minute of video: me cracking him up, and him cracking us up!

New Stats!
Sawyer had his 2-month checkup with Dr. Gerwein this week. Everything looks great. He had his first shots, which did NOT go over well.
He screamed immediately, and his entire head turned bright red with anger. After about 10 seconds (or 30, depending on which one of us you ask), the screaming subsided. The pain wasn't long lasting, so a quick bout of nursing made him forget. But we knew that one of the shots was tetanus, and we knew (from recent personal experience) that a tetanus shot hurts more later on than it did originally.
He went home and took a nap...and when he woke up, he screamed. And screamed. AND SCREAMED. We did everything we could, finally giving him a few drops of Tylenol. Wow -- it's hard to see your kid in pain!
His stats at 2 months:
23.5" long (75th percentile) (he's grown 2 inches since birth)
12 lbs., 6 oz. (74th percentile) (he's added 2 pounds, 13 ounces since birth)
40cm head (60th percentile)

Get Yer Sawyer Pics Here!
Because some folks have been asking...here's the latest batch of Sawyer photos!
Sledding in Tahoe
We went spent New Year's week in Truckee with the Cirulis and the Weigels.
Sure, there were the normal problems--kids fighting over the top bunk, and the traditional Weigelette barfathon.
But there were highlights, too: we discovered Dave's cross-dressing side, and Dave and Greg made an awesome sled run on Friday! Here's the video.
By the way, YouTube caught me trying to use some copyrighted music in the background (sorry, Kool and the Gang). So this version has no music. Check my Facebook videos for the original.
Hmmm, can I embed a Facebook video here?

Our little rocker!
In the second one, he/she is clearly seen rocking out. Cindy's been listening to a lot of heavy metal...
Our garden!
Check it out!
Peas, beets, carrots, and greens in one bed.
Sweet peas, peppers, and basil in another.
Corn, tomatoes, beans, and squash in the last...

Europe photos!
Well, it took 8 months, but I finally finished editing our Europe photo slideshow.
Last March we took a 3 week trip with our very good friends Laurent and Celia. We spent three weeks traveling: one week at their apartment in Barcelona, one week with Celia's family in Sicily, and one week in France (Paris, Normandy, and Annecy).
It was an amazing time--seeing Europe with Europeans is the way to go. I rarely felt like a tourist; I felt much more like a "guest." And that's a very, very good thing.
Thanks to everyone who opened their homes to us, and thanks to our guides for showing us such a good time!
This video is LONG! It's about 12 minutes. Watch it if you please!
Hmm, not sure if that worked on Google Video, and it's too big for YouTube.
Here's part 1 on YouTube...
And here's part 2...

Check out the new kitchen!
Here are some kitchen photos.
Note that we've got the Schnitzelbank table up against the bar -- that's not where it normally lives. It was the kids' table during Christmas Eve dinner!
