Baby

Finally

I am now an Uncle to a small baby boy. Beth and I are going to California next weekend (after valentine's) for a few days to visit the petit bijou. Took some doing to avoid flying from San Francisco to San Jose via seattle. A search on orbitz says the cheapest itinerary was Alaska SEA-PDX-SJC, returning United SJC-SBA-SFO-SEA. The only reason to do this is if you want the extra segments toward premier. It's worth $20 to get eight hours of your life back

Photos will arrive once I have them.

Spent the week in Allentown for a meeting at work. Lots of time spent drinking and eating. The nicest thing is the all day coffee pot. I passed through Ohare last night. There was a black bird in the B gates in terminal 1. And sailors, young, with fresh Great Lakes haircuts, on their way to Bremerton and the adventures that wait for them in the fleet.

Hello Everyone!!!

So, the little Uber is loving life in the womb..... still! So, in
about three hours, Richard and I are going to the hospital to induce
the labor.

He should be here by late tonight/tomorrow.

I will be sure to send you all a picture of the (8-10 pounder)
"little" guy. :)

I am so super excited to be a mommy and to make Richard a daddy!!!!!!!

Well, that is all I have for now.

Kristi :)

Arrived this morning at 1:07a.m.by C-Section. He weighs in at 8lbs
12oz. (Opa was too groggy at 3:30 when the call came in to get his
length).

Thank you for your prayers for a safe delivery. Carson, Mom, and Dad
are all well, tired, but well. We thank God for this new blessing in
our lives!

Love,
Oma Uber (Tam)

Hello everyone!
Kristi and I are going to go into the hospital tonight to force out a
squatter. A 8-10 pound midget has taken up residence inside my wife, and he
is no longer welcome in there. If he's cute, we might let him stay with us
for a while...we'll see.
Wish us luck!
Richard

Winter

The snow is gone. It stayed for a little over a week. There were a lot of slowdowns a few weeks back, but all is back to fifty degree normalcy.

The moss in the front yard is getting long again. The first spring clipping last year, I cut as much moss back as I did grass. It effects the north side of the house more than the back/south facing yard. Some of the grass has turned brown, and sits in dried tufts as though I lived on the tundra. I am enjoying a few days of sunshine, last weekend was also fine, and Beth and I went to American Lake.

I will be in Sacramento all next week, and then I will be in Allentown for a meeting. My sister in law is great with child, and should burst any day now. I saw my brother and her last week on Tuesday, we went into Monterey and had Vindaloo beside a fireplace. Ah, the life!
