Z. and baby -- and general update

Introducing Samuel... a week old as of yesterday. Went to see Mom and babe yesterday, after a hectic week at school. He's beautiful and Mom is healing nicely, too...

As for life in my world, all is well, though I am hellishly behind in my school work. Feeling better about the gym stuff, now that I am back on the bike and eliptical machine for 15 minutes at a time... It's not much, but it's better than I have been doing... baby steps.

Also, I'm not feeling overtrained any more. I started being relentless about getting enough sleep and that helps immensely.

Anyway, off to have dinner with my friend, Wei and her husband, Ming. Ming arrived from China last September and has been taking English classes over the past several months. Tonight will be the first chance for the three of us to socialize together... Yaay!

What a precious little baby. Not to be mean or anything, but I am glad that I am not the only one who is behind on school work. I got sick kids and a running habit.

Gosh, it's giving me pangs! I'm so glad everything worked out for them. And you. I'm glad you're getting militant about sleep!

Samuel and Z look just... right. A beautiful moment.

Sweet dreams, my Sarah... as your blurry-eyed Turtle turns in for the night... dream deep.

Hi Sarah,

How sweet! What a warm and tender moment between mom and baby. I'm glad mom and baby are doing so well.

Have a nice dinner out!

Later Janice~

That picture says it all. And, "Samuel" is a good strong name...my third son is named Samuel...though he answers to Sam and Sammy.

Sounds like your spirits are bright. That's good!

Very precious! makes me want to have another one now! heehee..ok actually maybe next year..

great picture!

makes three of us slacking on school stuff now! made up for it by being lone Acer on the last exam though! I was thinking "ok, who's the lucky bastard that got an A??" until he handed me my exam and saw the score! I almost jumped out of my seat right there in class...but I was kind enough and kept my behind planted in my seat.
