Mom pic!

Stef enjoying a well earned beer!

Philosophizing...

Clearly pondering life's great mysteries...

The nursery

Quilt from the Wises, crib and balloons from the Wens.

First Visit to the Pediatrician

Weight on day 4 = 7lbs, 8oz. Still down from his birth weight, but
he's put on a 2oz since hospital discharge, which is reassuring.

Clean Boy

Fresh from his 3am feeding / diaper change, it should read "I'm wild
for my Mom", since she did / is doing all the hard work.

The boys

Calm before the storm, i.e. the boy gets hungry.

With Mom

In his new tyrannosaurus onesie.

Day 3

This blog definitely needs more pics of Jackson with his mom, but this
is what I got for now

Jackson goes online

FaceTime video chatting with his paternal grandparents

The trip home...

More pics of Jackson: putting him in the car seat, putting him in the car, saying goodbye to the hospital, walking through the door at home, and hanging with his maternal grandparents

Happy birthday!

Exactly one day old. Couldn't be happier!

23 hour mark...

Jack and Dad

Change of theme...

The main subject matter of this blog is probably going to change
pretty significantly....

Jackson Ralph Wise, born 01/27/2012.

Lunch 01/27/12

Because this is the most exciting thing happening today (ha ha ha)

The nursery

Pete did such a great job putting the room together. Now all we need is the baby!

Picture Perfect Pastel

Another unique filter on the camera is called watercolor

Golden Globes

After watching the end of the East coast feed, we watched the start of the West coast feed of the Golden Globes.

Generally enjoyable. We decided to rent Midnight in Paris On Demand to see what all the fuss was about. Great movie! No pics from that movie, but here's the desert I put together (from a package):

Sketchy...

More Sketches

I took a bunch of cityscapes with the drawing filter on our new Olympus Tough TG-810. They're supposed to auto-magically upload to the web via our Eye-Fi card (I think this is such a cool idea, pretty excited to be trying it out) but the only pic to come through was this one.




If the rest of the pics come through, you might only sketch photos on this sight for a while.

Draw-ring

Here's a sketch of Stef our new camera produced:

Game Night!

Saturday night, game night! We break open our fancy new Backgammon set with monogrammed stones. (Thanks Pauline!) Note that the typical wine glasses have been exchanged for earl grey in the cast iron teapot. Sigh.

Nursery Prep

This is the before, or more accurately, the in-between (hopefully); and our major goal for the weekend.

Brendan's First New Year

Yay, Brendan's here!
