First, a real quick set of photos from our 2005 Beach Trip to Nags Head, NC. As usual, we had a fantastic time, though it was totally different from any beach trip we've ever been on before...amazing how having an infant affects your schedule in unpredictible and unavoidable ways...

I'll post more details about the trip later. Right now, people are clamoring for pictures, so here they are. :)

We've been busy lately...lunch with co-workers and their babies, movies, vaccinations, and Dominic's first big road trip. Not to mention his first tub baths (which he really seems to enjoy!)

We've had our baby!

At 11:32 pm, on Monday, June 20, 2005, Dominic Andrew Schuetz was born. At birth, he weighed 7 pounds 10 ounces (he's since dropped to 7 lb 4.5 oz), and was 20.5 inches long. He's doing really well, though being born so close to midnight seems to have put him on a schedule counter to ours. He's awake non-stop from midnight through 5 each morning, and we're getting kind of, well, tired. Still, when he's curled up in your arms, opens his eyes, and looks at you, well, it makes it worthwhile. Even if you can't see him clearly because it's 2:00 am.

Well, I finally finished the write up for the England trip. We've been a lot busier over the last six months than I'd expected, and I wasn't really able to spend as much time on it as I probably should have. I've also spent a lot of time working on my other website (for our community), and at least what I'm learning over there I can reapply over here. So hopefully, I'll get some more stuff posted soon. 'Cause there's so much to talk about...
