Planning a Big Project

After the new addition to the families Etheridge and Hinojosa, people start calling that you never really talk to very often.. family members who we should have never lost contact with in the first place.. starting a family of my own makes me realize that family is a very important aspect of my life and I should do more to embrace it.. not only on my side, but Celeste's side as well.. It would also do good to have Obie growing up with a strong sense of Family.. Therefore, I am starting a BIG PROJECT.. a family tree for Obie.. only problem is I can only go back a few generations and it would be nice to go back at least 5.. get in Obie's Great-greats in there.. I'll take all the help I can get on this and any input you have is appreciated.. please post a comment or two below, or just email me at NebsiNsaNe@gmail.com.

It's About Time!

I know it's a bit late, but Obie has his own blog devoted to him! Better late than never I suppose. On December 19th at 1805 hours, scared and overjoyed, Celeste and I became parents. He does nothing but eat, sleep, look cute, and mess diapers, but already we are proud of him. Just after a week he was already attempting to hold his head up straight and now at four weeks, he is smiling, laughing, and showing interest in his surroundings.

Anyway.. enjoy the blog. Idealy, the blog will be updated AT LEAST once a week, but between the two of us, there should be a few posts. Please, don't be shy and leave comments at the end of posts. We will respond to them. There is also the live chat at the bottom left of the blog for whenever we are online. The pictures rotating on the Photo Album can be found on Obie's Picasa Web Album, where you can order prints from either Shutterfly or Photoworks. (Personally we go with Photoworks.) The Picasa Web Album is also constantly updated as well. Links at the bottom of the page. Have fun and enjoy the blog!

Five Weeks and counting

Took us a while to get this started properly, but from here on out there should be at least weekly posts about Obie along with pictures etc. Wednesday he'll be six weeks old and have his first visit with his doctor so we'll be able to post some updated statistics :) From the scale at home and some crude math, he seems to be up to 11lbs and about 25inches long; in other words, he's been growin' like a weed.
Look forward to future updates and stories ;)

Lots o' love,
Celeste
