Cats are officially girls -- now about 2 pounds.  We have named them Mickey and Monty (Madison references.)

cats!



We are officially pet owners!  I upgraded Elizabeth's fathers day gift to me of a cat to two cats -- as the two siblings were inseperable at the shelter.  Initally billed as sister (Daisy)/ brother (Gatsby), they were later identified as two brothers, and, most recently, but still not definitively, two sisters.  Their names are also in flux.  Theyre both about 1.5 pounds, and the living room has proven quite expansive to explore.  First nap pictured above.

springfield - 4th of july



Enjoyed a long weekend with Gramma Sam and Pop-Pop - along with Uncle Nate/Aunt Kelli/Max/Lucy in Springfield. This is just a taste of the weekend, but misses out on some other highlights: Alden put his face in the water for the first time, Max's first grown-up basketball game, jumping rope, fishing (casting) with Pop-Pop, meltdown at the family picture, late night "date" at dinner table with Nate/Kelli/E/C and star war toys/GI Joes, Ice Delis, etc etc.  Not a bad visit.  ..
