Quality Time with Dad

A Silly Bean

Rockin' & Rollin'

November

We had fantastic visits last month with Cyndi & Van, Gran & Granddad, the FWs, and the Ahrens clan. Here you can see some advanced tummy time!

John William Ahrens

Jack is here! Sorry it's taken us a month to write a new post! Jack was born on June 25, 2009. He weighed 7lbs. 15 oz and measured 20.5 inches long. Priscilla helped us settle in after Sarah had an unplanned c-section, and we just spent a wonderful week with both FW grandparents. Here are some pics of Jack over the last month. There are many more pics on our flickr page (see the link on the left side of this page).

Baby Shower Video

Thanks to Marlon for putting together a fantastic video of our shower! We embedded the video here in in this blog for a few weeks, but for some reason it messed up the layout for those of you using Firefox.

Baby Shower, May 10

Hello Everyone! We're having a "long distance" baby shower on May 10, 2009 (Sarah's birthday & Mother's Day). We'll celebrate the upcoming arrival of the Bean, open presents, and eat cake. Soon after the shower, we'll post pictures (and perhaps a short video) from the day here.

For now, here is a picture of Sarah's 7 month belly and an ultrasound of the Bean looking right at you! Click on the photos to enlarge them. Oh, and we'll also post the Baby Pool here--send your guesses for birthday and sex to fergus2@fas.harvard.edu. Sarah's due date is June 23, 2009.
