Beach Ball (36 Weeks)

Today we went for a walk to the mystery bookstore in Noe Valley. It's been around since 1974, just like me. I think this photo is great--Amy pretty much looks like she is smuggling a beach ball!

I also couldn't resist buying a baby pop-over for our baby bjorn (used of course). It is kind of like a snowsuit made of fleece, but it has a big elastic hole on the back, so it just pulls 'around' the baby.

Golf with Lyle yesterday was fantastic. We walked 27 holes in 60 degree sunshine. Meanwhile, Amy is now officially on maternity leave.

Swabbing the Poop Deck

Jack's dirty diapers will be trashed in high style, thanks to Matt and Maria. They got Jack this incredible Vipp diaper pail, all the way from Denmark (via the world wide web). The Vipp was designed in 1939 and hasn't changed since. Thanks!

Amy's co-workers took her out for lunch today to the world famous Koi Palace in Daly City. I've never been there, but I hear its strangely yummy.

Tomorrow is Amy's last day at work before maternity leave, four weeks to go! It's cold and rainy, but I have tomorrow off, so I'm going to play golf with Lyle.

Jack's Room

Well, we finally finished Jack's room (for the most part). It's still missing the rocker, but the main elements are all set--the changing table, the crib, and of course the grandparents trundle bed. For those of you unfamiliar with the saga of the bed, you're better off not knowing. Several enormous fedex boxes and several rebuilds later, the proper beds with correct colors are installed and looking great.

Also, we went over to Jon and Michelle's last night for dinner and a movie. Baby Zoe is about 3 weeks old now and she is soooo cute! And amazingly well-behaved, I might add (not like her old man).

Flower Shirt Shot (33 Weeks)

Amy wore my favorite shirt to StarMine's holiday party at a Tequila bar. This is our friend Jen, who's due in February.
