Drew called this morning to let me know that he was pulled aside at work when he got in today and told that he has been nominated for UVA’s New Nurse of the Year award!! UVA is a huge health system with hundreds of nurses, so this is really special. I am absurdly proud of [...]

A few moments of silence…
It’s a flat, foggy, rainy day here in Charlottesville, so we’re bundled in the nest and thinking about a nicer day to start exploring the outdoors. Drew was on call today, his first day back at work after 2 weeks of paternity leave, and the phone startled us at 5 in the morning calling [...]

video!
Well, we’re into week number 2 and everything is rolling right along. Asher is continuing to gain weight, eat well, and above all surprise and amaze us. We’re starting to get into a little bit more of a daily groove and I think that all three of us are getting more comfortable with all the [...]

Asher is continuing to [...]

his room.
Well team, taking pictures of a room is kind of a tricky thing. I mean simple enough, but tricky to capture the sense of the space. I’m giving that disclaimer as part of the reason that it’s taken me so long to get any pictures up of the baby’s room, and also because it’s been [...]

It’s in the can.
Labor on labor day? Sounded good to me, but so far, no dice. Drew’s working in the hospital today and I’m taking care of some work things and house things and thought I would share some pictures from the weekend.
On Saturday, we converted about 15 lbs of tomatoes from the garden into salsa and canned [...]
