Six Months Old

Hannah turned one half a few days ago, at least in actual age. Since her due date was supposed to be November 1st, she's only 2 and 1/2 months when compared to other babies. She got a glowing review at her six-month checkup.


Carla crashed as soon as I got home, so Hannah's hanging out here in the study with me, while mom catches up on some sleep.

We got an email from one of Hannah and Steven's NICU nurses the other day. It's gratifying to be able to share her progress with the folks that saved her life. If there are any other NICU nurses or doctors reading this, please drop us a line; we'd love to hear from you.

On an almost completely unrelated topic, my brother Bruce has invented and is selling a cool tooth fairy kit (click here to check it out). If your kids are still at the gullible age, this would be a great way to freak them out. For a couple bucks more, I'll throw in a customized note from the tooth fairy that says "I took the loose tooth this time Timmy, but next time, I'm bringing the pliers! Huahahahahaha!" OK, that was a Far Side joke . . . must credit the master where credit is due.
