Waiting for Salem

We're anxiously awaiting the arrival of baby Salem... which should be any time now in the words of the doctor.

While most of you have become accustomed to her unique name, more important is its meaning... Peace.

I received a neat story from a good friend of mine this morning, and wanted to pass it on (no it's not a forward). More than anything, it illustrates peace. Not just peace in the worldly sense, but the peace that only Christ can give... a peace that passes all understanding. [Philippians 4:7 gospelcom.net]

Whoop-ski

A local NBC newscaster was reporting the Olympic medal tally:

Germany has 35 medals... The US is second with 30... and the Russians, crying all the way, have 15.

Immediately he apologized (and continued to apologize throughout the newscast)... still, it was pretty amusing!

Any Day

Chantell has been going to the OB once a week now that we're nearing the finish line. During her vist last Tuesday, the OB said See you next Tuesday, if not before!

Salem could be coming sooner than we even anticipated!

No Beba el Agua

The other day, Chantell came home and saw a couple unloading a truck and moving in upstairs.

Upon seeing Chantell (quite pregnant), the man said "Whoa! It's like baby fever around here. First those twins [newborn, also upstairs], and now you?!?"

"Honey!" he yelled up the stairs, "Don't drink the water!"

Freudian Slide

Chantell and I were discussing the many (lacking) virtues of pop star Brittni Spears. Unbeknowst to us, our cousin, John Morgan (8), was listening in.

"Did you say Brittni Spears? I like those!" he piped from the back seat.
