Benjamin At Two - Pictures!

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Proofs from Benjamin’s 2-year birthday pictures! Since they’re just proofs, they’re not large nor very high-resolution. You can click them to get slightly larger sizes.

Zachary (roughly 5 months old here) is naturally in some of them. We went to a Target photo studio near us; the woman there was rumored to be terrific…and she was. We were very impressed with her ability to capture great facial expressions and the natural look and feel of Benjamin.

We didn’t order all of these poses, of course. If you see one you really like, though, let us know!

Party postponed, everyone sick as dogs

Friday, February 15th, 2008

That really says it all. Everyone’s sick with cold or flu or both, who knows. It’s terrible. Had a rash scare with Zachary that turned out not to be what they thought it might be (ITP). Birthday pics for Benjamin were rescheduled, too.

Rough week. Looking to reschedule party to a date a couple weeks from now. More on that when we figure it out…

Sick Kids!

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

For now, Benjamin’s party this weekend is still a ‘go’, but neither of the little ones are feeling well at all.

Croup for Benjamin for sure, and a cold for Zachary as well (along with Zachary’s ‘mystery rash’). They both seem pretty miserable, and Dad’s not much better. Not much the pediatrician could do for them, either.

We had planned to get some pictures done this week, but that’s been rescheduled for now.

If the party date/time changes, we’ll certainly let you know, but for now, that, at least, is still on schedule. Hopefully they’ll be cleared up by then.

Party for Benjamin

Monday, February 11th, 2008

We’re having an informal get-together at home for Benjamin, on Saturday at 2pm, to celebrate his 2-years-oldness, which happens formally in about a week. If you’d like to stop by, please do! but we’d love it if you’d leave us a note and let us know so we can plan a little ahead. :)

We know it’s late notice already, so if you show up, you show up, and we’ll all be happy to see you. :)

Can’t believe it’s been two years already!

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

Mommy is one year older! I turn one more year older soon, too!

She’s still a lot younger than Daddy, though. Daddy’s REALLY old!

OK, gotta go… I hear someone coming, and I can’t let them see that I know how to use the computer properly! Bye-bye!

A Few Pictures

Friday, October 12th, 2007

Most of you should have received Zachary’s birth announcement moocards by now, and are here looking for more of the pictures we promised. We’re happy to report that they’re here.

It’s not a ton of pictures, but it’s a start, and we hope to keep the pictures coming, of both Zachary and Benjamin. Please keep checking back for more!

And remember, you can always contact us anytime, or register with us here and leave us comments on these pictures, or any pictures or anything else we post here…and basically keep in touch with us. We hope to hear from you!
