Reagan and I have been working all year long to gain guaranteed entry to next year’s New York City Marathon. We have been doing the NYRR 9+1 program. We have had all of our races (plus a few extra) finished for quite some time now. But when we got online to sign up to volunteer, … Continue reading Busy Weekend→
We found out this morning that Piper will be going back to NJ on Tuesday. We knew that she was next on the list, for a couple of weeks now. But I was secretly hoping that she wouldn’t go back until after the holidays, and everything. She has been at Blythedale for a long time … Continue reading Deep Breath→
I had some surplus vacation time to use up before the end of the year. As a part of it, I’m taking a vacation at the end of every week this month (for those weeks that don’t already end in holidays), starting last Friday. It was really fun to be able to go up and … Continue reading Work Free-Fridays for the Month of December→
I know it is only the first week of December. But it is already that time of year, where everyone starts publishing the “best of” lists etc.. So, the other night I sat down and put together a less-than-comprehensive little photo book of our 2009 activities. There are 118 images all together. Depending on which … Continue reading 2009 in retrospect→
Once again, hopefully I won’t get in trouble for posting these. I was ordering the prints for our Christmas cards, yesterday, and decided to get a couple of additional prints made. I had a really hard time deciding. I ended up not going with either of these ones, but I liked them enough to post. … Continue reading A couple of more faves from 2 weekends ago→
Piper had her fancy pants on, and was dancing around pretty much all weekend. It was really fun being able to see Piper for so many days, this week. It is really amazing how quickly standing has become one of her favorite things to do. She would probably sleep standing up, if she could figure … Continue reading Mo’ PJ from the long weekend→
This is the first year, since Piper has been around, that we have been in town for Thanksgiving weekend. In the past we have spent it in New England with our Boston friends. It was kind of nice, not to be traveling, this year. It was extra nice to be able to see Piper on … Continue reading Turkey Day→
We have been trying, for the last 2 days, to get a decent family pic for our Christmas cards. This has involved dressing up nice, dressing Piper up nice, and lugging numerous props etc. to and from the hospital. Piper has been an extremely good sport about all of it. I really hope that we … Continue reading Piper, looooovvvveeeeesssss her mom→
Reagan and I were both kind of sad to leave Buzios. We are now back in Rio, this time staying on Ipanema Beach. It is really nice here. It is a good spot to wind down and get ready to go home. It is going to be tough to go back to the grind, after … Continue reading Back in Rio→
