moving

hey you-- i'm putting new posts up at threeyearsindenmark.blogspot.com.

veralouie seems to be going into retirement. maybe she'll come out of it someday. until then!

will they let him in?

it appears someone snuck into this blog on december 3rd to share the news. well, it is true. we are denmark-bound. and this will, presumably, be william's official residency photo. to me i see glimpses of teenaged william, or at least one possible version of him. maybe he won't be such a tough guy in 14 years. i hope not...

danskland

we are moving to denmark! pickled herring? count me in.

henryville

okay, twice now today henry has looked at oliver the dog and i swear, he said "ah-ver"... just saying.

worm bugs

right now william and greg are worm bugs, which eat raspberries, worms, and snakes, but not rattly snakes ("why we can't eat the rattly snakes?") and they're searching the ground for their food.

growing up

couple more

henry likes to sleep, occasionally opens his eyes, rarely cries (yet?).

w update

here are some photos of our mr. will. bigger than ever.


construction worker william, with oliverfriend (not to be confused with his puppy oliverpuppy)

39 weeks

hang in there! someday i aspire to blog once again. it's true! at least... it's true at this moment. so, i am 39 weeks along... that means 1 more week until the crazy life is set to start. i'll try to get information up once it all happens.

law school

i wondered what it was going to take to break the post-less cycle i've been in.

here it is: so you want to go to law school

ahh, law. thanks to my sister-in-law for passing this on.

long time...

sometimes i wonder if and when i'll ever update the blog! this has to be one of the longest stretches to date. my apologies to the three of you still checking this website. but i'll try to update soon. i think i mentioned that greg graduated, so he's officially a post-doc, doing research in the med physics department. i don't think i mentioned that there's a new baby on the way in this household! i think most folks know about that already. due in february. we are excited about that! and w.t. started preschool at a Montessori school. so we're all getting used to the new routine. it's a cool day in the 60's here, blue skies, sunny, so i think we'll go pick some apples down the road and if we get enough, make some applesauce to eat up once all of the apples are gone from wisconsin. i'll try to post some pictures soon. until then, take care!

living the small life

i thought this was neat.

the diss is done

it's been holiday-city over here lately. greg successfully defended his dissertation last week and we threw a big party, tent and keg and cake and all! sunday everyone left and it was very quiet and we couldn't quite remember what our routine was, but we're slowly getting back into it, except that william's bedtime has been pushed back about two hours (not ideal) and the mind requires a reluctant (because it's self-discipline after all) sort of mental push to reluctantly (again) admit that the dishes are still going to be there tomorrow if we don't do them ourselves. bother.
but anyway, it's exciting times with eventfulness on a pretty constant drip these days. more to come later.

6/18

some gifts today...

william slept in until exactly 6:18. wow... good timing little guy.

little brother found the song i'd heard on npr... fake empire by the national... and live versions of some bon iver songs... thanks nunen!

a double rainbow...
