Early spring photo album
Spring is starting here (although it's still possible we'll get snow tonight...). Here's a recent album showing the kids out in the yard, more shots of Timothy (some rather goofy looking) , Claire at Gymnastics Village, and the recent table, chairs, and coat rack we bought at the Oak Store.
Thanks for the pictures Scott - I enjoyed seeing them especially since I won't be able to be there for the Baptism. Also, thanks for the picture of Suzy - it's a great picture of her. Hope you can get some good pictures at the Baptism. Keep up the good work.

Hi Dad,
Glad you liked them. I laugh every time I see the pictures of Timothy. He has some of the funniest facial expressions!
We plan to let mom take care of getting pictures at the Baptism. I'm debating on whether to have her use the digital camera or the 35mm SLR. The SLR has better optics and (more importantly) a stronger flash. I can always get digital images from the film, as I've done before.
I feel a bit bad for mom, Chris, and Katie. The weather forecasts for the end of this week are not looking good thus far. We were hoping to let the boys run around on the grounds of Merrimack's A-B brewery (aka your Mecca) while Chris takes a tour.

Scott-
Got your phone message last night and I wanted to let you know that I did have a chance to look at the pictures yesterday morning. Seeing Timothy makes me want to have my baby! Michelle, you look great- I'm jealous, but I have to say that I am not jealous of all the working out you have done- not my thing. We went shopping last nite and got the kids Easter outfits, just in case the baby is born early, I want to know they all have something nice to wear that fits. Everybody found something except TJ, he wants a suit, and I am not going to discourage that- how often do you hear of a 12 year old boy asking to wear a suit? Usually he is in a t-shirt and rugged jeans! Now, I am going to get ready to vote- we have a public school referendum that will make my taxes go up. Fortunately, it is supposed to be in the 70s today, so William and I should have a nice walk on our way to vote. Take care! Alyssa
I am so jealous!! I want to come down for the baptism, too. Like you couldn't just afford one more plane ticket for ME between all of you!! (just kidding :)
Hey Alyssa, atleast you can say you dont look like Michelle right now because you ARE pregnant. I just have to say I'm lazy.
Scott, do you ever get homesick still? Whats my deal?
Hi Suzy,
I get less homesick than I used to. It's primarily when
1) I'm flying back home to NH
2) I'm dropping mom off at the airport or
3) I see dad's Accord driving away
that I feel homesick. It was a lot worse when we had no children and were alone in Dayton. But now I get so overwhelmed with my own homefront that I just wish they were around to babysit even for a short spell.
