And, as I'm sure you're all more interested in, so is the kid.
Sorry for the sporadic updates, but you almost have to cut me some slack; I've got a two month old kid. On top of that since the last update we've had Holy Week, Pascha, Finals, our first year anniversary, and the past week I've been sickish.
Like you read this blog to hear about my woes. Yeah, yeah, here's the news about our giganto-tron.

No, seriously, he's officially huge. The doctor said so. At his two month checkup he weighed 17lbs, and his doctor sprained his back lifting him onto the examination table.
He got his first shots too. The doctor said that he's functioning at a 4 month level socially and physically. To get all serious for a mo', I don't care much about the physical part. The kid is huge-of course his muscles are all uber developed. I'm slightly concerned he's going to expect me to teach him how to throw a football someday or some such nonsense and I'm going to have to call up Ben, or if he wants to kick a football, I'm going to have to call up his Uncle David, and make him come teach him, after I grill David on why he's infecting my son with his inability to say "soccer."
But the social development, that was a huge relief. They had worried that his brain might have been effected by oxygen deprivation when he didn't breath at birth (that whole, week-in-the-hospital thing after he was born). Apparently not only is he meeting his mental milestones, but he's exceeding them. It was very nice to hear that he seems to be completely normal, from a medical professional.
So here are a few more gratuitous pictures of the face you came to see. Promise to try to update more often. Summer vacation has started, so all I have to worry about is keeping the house clean, and occasionally holding the kid, and changing a few diapers, and I'm making a summer project of Latin and French, and dealing with the uprising of emotions brought on by the 7 Seasons of Boy Meets World we got for our Anniversary.
