Come Home Safely: Whether you support the war in Iraq or not, I'm sure you'll join me in wishing them a speedy and safe return back home.
More Ultrasounds!: We just had a couple more ultrasounds taken. The baby looks right on target for everything right now and is currently 7.5 cm. Julianne is also starting to feel better and says that she feels a boy. We'll find out in a couple of weeks. Click on the smaller picture to enlarge.
Blizzard of '03: Well we finally dug out from the Blizzard of 2003. We got around 1.5 - 2 feet of snow here in Norwalk. Here are some pics. Click on the picture to see the larger image.
Number 2 On the Way! Many of you have asked when we were planning on having a second child, and I am happy to announce that we finally have an answer! Julianne is pregnant with our second child, and while it's still too early to tell the sex of the child, we do have some ultrasounds with a first look at the fetus. Click on the picture below to enlarge. We are expecting an August delivery. Mommy has been hit with a bit of morning sickness (all-day long), but otherwise is doing fine.


Server Upgrade: Well, in between watching the Super Bowl and the commercials, I was upgrading some faulty hardware on my web server at home. Hopefully, this server will stay up and running for more than 20 minutes at a time. Thanks to my brother for donating a motherboard :) . I'm also working on a way so that people who can't access the site from work will be able to do so.
Happy New Year! Hope you all have a Happy New Year. I plan on updating the stuff on this site more often (yes, more than twice a year! ;) ) I should be putting up more pics of Annalise and will be playing around with some videos as well.
And here's a little 1 minute video Christmas Card with Annalise. There are two versions, one for those with high-speed Internet connections (i.e. Cable Modem, DSL, etc.) and those with poky Internet connections. If you have Windows Media Player installed, you should be able to play whichever version you want right in the web page. Otherwise, you can click on the words "Christmas Video" and Media Player will open in a new window.

R.I.P., Dad: After a short bout with cancer, my dad died on Thursday, July 25. He passed peacefully surrounded by several family members. He was originally diagnosed with the cancer on March 17, when a tumor was found in his brain. On March 28, they performed surgery to remove the tumor. From then on, he gradually declined, as the cancer, which originated in his lungs, continued to spread. Less than four months later, he took his last breath in front of his wife, two sons, and other members of the family.
