We Had A Time...

I've only been away at work for a week and I already miss Hannah to pieces!!!! I can't help but reminisce about the good times we had this winter:

Playing at the Park

Taking Daily Strolls

Making Starbucks and Jamba Juice Runs -- thanks Jeff and Lesley ;)

Hangin' With Friends and Family

Reading Magazines Together 

Playing Video Games

I'm so jealous of Mom!

Sibling Rivalry

We tried to formally introduce Hannah and Shady to each other, but as soon as Hannah got in Shady's personal space, Shady hissed at Hannah! Shady, we're cutting you out of our will...

Open Letter to Nikon and/or Canon

Dear Nikon and/or Canon,

I'm writing this letter to thank you for the stellar products you have been offering the average consumer. I use both your cameras for this blog. However, I do think there is room for improvement.

The best ideas are usually the most simple. Take the Nintendo Wii for example -- its motion sensitive controller is an idea that's simple yet this feature is one millions of people didn't know they wanted. I think you know how they turned out. Well, I have an idea that is as equally revolutionary for your cameras and will undoubtedly give one of your companies -- whoever decides to adopt it first -- a clear advantage over the other.

I'm talking, of course, about Booger Reduction.

Think about it. Millions of people purchase your cameras in order to catch the first few months of their child's lives. And let's face it, babies are booger factories. Using our daughter as an example, Hannah cries loudly and stops suddenly several times a day. This is a recipe for mucus. In fact, half the pictures we take of her have boogers in them. Booger Reduction will remove all those unsightly snot bombs from these snapshots and make everyone's photos more family friendly.


Think of how much the user-friendly feature known as Red Eye Reduction made your cameras much more accesible to the American public. No Photoshop skills necessary! Booger Reduction will do the same.

You now have the knowledge to make millions of dollars and obliterate the competition. All I ask is a small donation for this unfallible idea. You can make a donation through Paypal on this blog. All proceeds will go to Hannah's Berkeley Education Fund. Thanks again.

Hannah And Her Sister

Christine's family thinks Hannah looks more like me. My family thinks Hannah looks more like Christine. But I think Hannah looks most like her older sister, Shady. Take a look:

The resemblance is uncanny!

Pop Quiz!

Which one of these ladies does not belong?

Okay, pencils down. The correct answer is C. Nicole Kidman is the only one of the above who has not had a child at the wonderful Cedars-Sinai Medical Center!

You get a bonus ten points if you chose all except E. Conversely, if you guessed just E, you are a racist! Please navigate elsewhere while we make fun of you behind your back.

Busted!

Our daughter's name was supposed to be a secret.

But I wanted to test out the Blogger Waters and put something up, never thinking anyone would see this until Christine and I gave the word. Oooops. Our friend John L found this blog through a link on Oliver's blog. Curses!!!!! So if you've found this blog before Sept. 6th, consider yourself priviledged!

Of course, we've also accidentally spilled the beans to my bro and sis.
So the total number of adults that know our baby's name (excluding us, but including Oliver's parents): 5

Nobody tell us any secrets. Ever.

Welcome to Hannah's Crib!

Welcome to Hannah's Crib! Christine and Neil are new to the world of blogging so please, bear with us! Actually Hannah isn't here yet -- and neither is her crib -- but we're all so excited we couldn't wait for her arrival to start the blog! Well most of us are...
