Celebrity photo opps

A smattering of big-whigs in the family industry who sought opportunities to show off with Simon.

Cracking jokes...

"So....mom, dad -- did you ever hear the joke about the baby who came after 26 hrs of labor? NO! Oh, it's a great one. Haha. It goes like this...."

Unless I'm mistaken, this is called cute.


Well, there are just too many pictures to not share a couple more. Here he is charming his Aunt Ellen with those big blue-gray eyes.

And of course mom and dad are no match for them either. Next thing we know, he'll be asking to borrow the car -- with no fuss from us.

And here is Simon with his old friend Patrick "Patch" Connolly.

Thanks everyone!


Annie and I want to thank you all for your help and prayers. Simon Paul does too, and is returning the favor as you can see. He's doing very well with his mommy -- they're big fans of each other.

Please keep the prayers coming!

Uncle Andrew's Big Day

Happy Birthday, Uncle Andrew. What a big day. And it's a Friday! School's out for the weekend. You can party-hearty.

It's also the eve of Patrick "Patch" Connolly's big baptism day. He's on his way.
Who knows? Maybe someday he'll grow up to look like this guy.
This house is where it's at!
Congrat's to Uncle Andrew and to Patch!
