With my allergies, it is more like "Beware the Eyes of March".

2011-02-25T21:32:00.001-06:00

Mamma and the boys are home!

2011-02-23T14:10:00.001-06:00

She's at 8.5cm...almost there!

2011-02-23T06:23:00.001-06:00

Julie and I are still at the hospital. It looks like we have about an hour before we get her into an OR.

2011-02-23T00:02:00.001-06:00

At the hospital w/Julie because already the twins aren't listening to their mother.

2011-02-22T05:15:00.001-06:00

Power back on. Whew!

2011-02-02T06:54:00.001-06:00

Lost power at 0645. I hope I don't have to fire up the generator. On the + side...our freezer s/b fine, w/this cold weather.

2011-01-03T08:18:00.001-06:00

A big THANK YOU to all the members of the Armed Forces (and those that do not "officially" work for the government) for keeping the U.S. safe!
