Welcome Shelby Claire Norman!
My niece, Shelby Claire Norman, was born at 9:40am EST this morning. 6lbs, 2oz, 19.5 inches. Mother and baby are doing fine. Apparently she looks just like her brother Jake!
Turning One
Well, as most of you know, yesterday was Emily's birthday. I cannot believe that she has been with us for a year already. My how she has grown. We went from lump of baby, to sitting up, to babbling, to crawling, and now walking. She is quite tall these days and hangs with most of the older kids in her daycare class. In honor of her birthday, I took some frosted cookies to her class yesterday afternoon (and no, they weren't home-made). I took pictures of her and her classmates as they devoured the sugary goodness. I am not sure what Emily actually though. The teachers also had the birthday song on repeat on the CD player, so much dancing and eating was to be had. Here are a few snapshots from the "party".
Hope you enjoy them!
We'll write more and post more pictures later.
Emily’s Baptism
Well, it has been a busy week, but I have finally gotten around to uploading pictures from Emily's baptism at Wesley United Methodist Church on Sunday, October 7th, 2007. I also included a few pictures from my parents house after church. Notice her pretty little bracelet, courtesy of Rae's Jewelry. She also had a pretty little necklace on, but you cannot really see for the gown.
Emily in Columbus, Take 2
Well, Ashley and Emily have made it back from the second trip to Columbus. Behold! The baby is huge!
TiVo HD official
While most of our readers will not care, the TiVo HD is now official. From a storage standpoint, the TiVo HD will not store any more hours of HD programming than the Knology DVR that I currently have. However, I would be gaining the nice, shiny TiVo software that I fondly remember in my pre-HD days. While TiVo has had an HD capable DVR (the Series 3) for about a year now, the Series 3 rang in at around $800. The new TiVo HD will retail for a mere $299 — a much more affordable price for those of us with a new baby. Now, I just need to confirm that Knology will provide CableCARDs and I can finally ditch their DVR for TiVo goodness once again.
