Bad Guys!


Okay so seriously...I mean well. I honestly do, but I can't seem to get this updated as much as I would like. Anyway, I have a bunch of pics now so that should help.


Life in Delaware is good. CJ is as always growing and changing. He is so smart and we are constantly proud of his day-to-day accomplishments. Sometimes we worry that he is too smart for his own good like Friday when he used a magnet to make people on his MagnaDoodle. He made Mama, Daddy, and CJ, but then made two more figures that he informed me where the bad guys! I was so suprised. He didn't seem scared of them, but just matter of factly stated we need to get them and then laughed histerically when he erased them.


This weekend we went up to Lancaster, PA, a family favorite. We had a quiet weekend enjoying the countryside and exploring some of the history. We stopped in at Bube's Brewery, which began in the early 1800s for lunch. It was quite an experience. CJ was thrilled with indoor playground at the hotel and just informed me this morning that we need to head back there.


Casey has done extremely well this semester in school. He is enjoying his classes and I am enjoying his success in them. I think he has definitely found his calling and is excited to finish up.

We are preparing for my graduation in a few weeks and are excited that the family will be in town. I can't believe it really is over. I just heard the I passed the MPRE, which is a portion of the bar exam on ethics that you take separately, which was encouraging to say the least!


The pic is from a lazy Saturday at the park.

Hello from Philly

Hello and Happy Holidays from the City of Brotherly Love! Its almost New Year's resolution time and one of mine is to maintain a blog for all our of friends and family who don't get to see our little guy on a daily basis (and for those of you that do too). CJ is ready for Christmas- although Santa is not his favorite as you can see. I'm not sure who is worse at peeking at packages though, CJ or Casey. We were too excited to wait so we've had a Christmas tree up since the weekend after Thanksgiving. We kept the unbreakable ornaments on the lower part of the tree, which has been good since he likes to take them off and throw them to his daddy. He's so smart and observant. I'm just amazed by him. He loves to learn and seems (to me) to be very mechanically minded since he can unscrew or take apart anything you put in front of him. He has an infectious grin and a laugh that reminds you what living is about. He likes to talk all time and he LOVES to dance. He's ju...

Mystic, CT

We had a great time in Mystic, CT last weekend for Father's Day. We spent Saturday at the Mystic Seaport, a little reanactment community right on the water. We even got to see a replica of the Amistad (the original was either scrapped or sunk). That part was neat, but very sad to see the conditions those men endured. CJ loved the water and kept trying to walk onto all the boats he saw (even the yachts that had just docked for lunch). He really enjoyed driving the ship. We then had lunch at a great little inn right on the water- Seaman's Inn. It was wonderful. On Sunday we went to Mystic Aquarium. CJ really loved it. His favorite was the buluga whales as you can see from the picture. He laughed and oohed and ahhed. It was a great weekend. Now we are just gearing up for our trip to Kansas City and for his birthday in a few weeks. Daddy is going on a guy's camp weekend next weekend with Uncle Sami so CJ and I are planning a trip to the zoo. We'll put up more pics then.

Ceirnan Update and Other

Here is a picture of the kids at the zoo on Saturday. We had beautiful weather in the 70s. CJ and Ceirnan had a great time- although I wish I had taken this picture when we got there instead of as we started to leave. CJ liked the monkey's the best this trip and we all enjoyed a great picnic lunch. Here is the update on Ceirnan's hand. I'm not sure how much everyone actually knows so I'm kind of summarizing it a bit. Ceirnan was born with a few issues on her right arm and hand. The doctors assume that she got her arm stuck above her head and couldn't get it out of that position. It created some pressure wounds that have mostly healed up and it also caused a radial dislocation. At this point, there is no way to fix the radial dislocation, but it doesn't cause her any pain and she's lucky enough to have full range of motion. It also limited or destroyed (not sure yet) the growth of the nerve and muscle on the top of her arm. Therefore , she can't...
