Here's the first family posting. We are trying out the format to share our happenings with everyone. Hopefully you'll excuse our failings as we work on this and please feel free to laugh at us whenever. We certainly are often laughing at ourselves!

The big news, of course, is the new addition, Noah. He arrived early on August 4th at 10:49pm. He's healthy and thriving through the first week of life and we couldn't be more pleased! Here's a pic of him and his mom chilling out on the couch. Lyza's Picasa album already has lots of pictures up of the little man. Please check it out and we'll keep adding more as we get a second here and there. It's impossible to ever keep up with the shear volume of photos taken in our house, but we'll get up most of them eventually.
