When we moved into our new home on May 17th, things were a bit chaotic to say the least. (more…)

We will be dividing up the blog into two concurrent stories, Michael’s and Melanie’s. We were both seeing the events unroll from two drastically different points of view and you would not have a full perspective if you just [...]
Long time, no blog

Obviously, I’m not quite the blogger Michael was (is/will be). I noticed there had been 3 blogs by me in March, while Michael sent 13 in the shorter month of February. This one may be worth the wait. (more…)
Registry Addendum
Posted in Family, tagged baby, registry on Thursday, 20 March, 2008 | No Comments »
I just noticed last night that the Safety 1st Vineland high chair we registered for on Amazon.com shows “not available”. If you wish, you may order the same chair from either proudmommey.com (sku# 03536VLD) or babygift.com (item# DJG029). If anyone decides on this item from one of these or another source, just let [...]

Let me make it easy for everyone. The baby’s name is Shepherd James Lawson. No real reason. He will NOT go by a nickname.

Dental Coverage Advice
Posted in Family, tagged advice, coverage, dental, insurance on Friday, 1 February, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Since we have a somewhat captive audience, I felt I might ask for opinions on dental coverage. We have medical insurance, but not dental. We have gotten some information from a few sources, but the cost for a family is like $900+ per year (that does not include deductibles or copays). Without coverage, [...]

Out of Commission
Posted in Family, tagged flu, sick on Wednesday, 16 January, 2008 | No Comments »
Photos and blogs will be out of commission for a few days. You might have noticed the previous blog is very brief. Melanie has not felt well since Sunday and has some chest congestion and is coughing a lot. Tuesday afternoon I started going down hill and felt awful by the evening. My temperature shot [...]
