Our friends, and Meg's godparents, Jonathan and Tracey Van Hook, welcomed their first child today. Andrew Tate Van Hook weighed in at (prepare to wince) 10 pounds 11 ounces. Mom and baby are doing fine after the C-section!
Our little one went mobile the Saturday before Memorial Day, and isn't too far from going to just 2 wheels.
Our daughter is at her first sleep over camp, from yesterday until the 6th. House is oddly quiet. I'm enjoying that, but still miss her.

We're Back!
It's been a hair-raising month and a half! This is actually Meg, on a field trip to the American Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge. For once that mussed hair was useful!
We finally had a service for my mother on January 31st, with a nice group of family and friends in attendance. She was cremated, and her ashes put next to those of my sister Barbie in the Columbarium of the Church of the Ascension, where Hope and I were married.

I'll post some more pictures, just as soon as I find the camera!

Mary Millener Mitchell 1933 - 2008
Mom passed away Sunday evening at 10:15 at Hillcrest West Nursing Home. We had just moved her there Friday, another step on the journey to hopefully getting her home. I had been looking forward to having her so much closer to us and her friends. She did live long enough to see a photograph of her great-grandson Brett, which meant so much to her. We appreciate all the offers of love and support from so many of you. We'll get through the next few days (no memorial service, per her wishes), and try to get a grip back on the "reason for the season". Many of our holiday plans have been side-tracked by the events of the past few weeks and months, but we hope to be back to normal early in the new year.
Matt has continued to get better, and is starting to look like a somebody, losing the baby look! Hope and I are so happy to have him as a reminder of all that's good.
Merry Christmas to you all!

Matthew(bitsy)is the cutest thing ever! I can make him smile!!!!!!!!!!!!! He will giggle for me and get the best look on his face. He is getting soooooooooo big! But, it is still the same thing, he will be all nice and quite and I will want to hold him, I will pick him up, walk into another room, set him down, walk away, and he will start crying. I am so excited, this is Bitsy's first Christmas! His first holiday was Halloween, his first event was the UAB game. He liked it, he came out all red and hot!
