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!

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.

Sunday Afternoon in the Park

Could be a well known play, but in this case, it's the new Yankee Stadium. I picked up tickets Thursday afternoon for today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is the first game we've been to at the new stadium. The new stadium is very nice - much more in line with other new stadiums. There is a lot more space in the walkways - more food options - and much better bathrooms! The latter being most important to me right now. Our tickets were in left field in the upper deck. All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
