Meet Jack

Jack Nathan MacFarlane made his roaring entrance at 5:48 pm, August 12th. He's a big, beautiful boy weighing 8 lbs. 9 oz and 21 inches long.

By himself, he looks normal sized to me. Next to other babies, he's a big one!

Justin and I are doing great - learning lots and lots of new things every hour - from swaddling and feeding to changing and burping. We're definitely on a steep learning curve!

We head home from the hospital today which is the next big adventure! Justin's parents are also driving down from Massachusetts. Jack will meet another set of Grandparents - let the spoiling begin!!!

I've posted some pictures at this link:

Thanks for all the Congratulations!! We're so happy that he's here!

Called up

This weekend, the t-ball team was short a few players. Spencer was called up from the practice team to fill in. He was one of the smallest on the field, but played well, even teaming up with Jack for an out!

Veritable Dutch Wonderland

Mother's Day weekend, we planned a little trip out of NYC. We headed to Lancaster, PA - close enough for a night away, but far enough away to feel very different than NYC. The weekend was a lot of fun (and honestly a lot of work). All in all, the boys did well. Highlights below: Dutch Wonderland Lancaster is home to several tourist things. We picked one: Dutch Wonderland family amusement park. My cynical self really doubted that we'd enjoy this experience. I was worried that it would be cheesy. But I was wrong. Well yes, it was kind of cheesy because it was a family amusement park. But it was so fun. The place was very geared to families with young children. The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail. He even drove a car! He had a really good time. Spence was a good sport as there wasn't much for him to do. Maybe next year. Justin felt right ...

Good Morning

What is my big brother doing to me? Brothers hanging in Mommy and Daddy's bed.
