Family Portraits

So Grandma and Grandpa Uhl decided that they would like to have a portrait of them with C&G. I was happy to oblige:

Though this reminded Lea that we still didn't have a picture of the four of us all together, so we got Grandpa Frank to take one:

PSU Defeats Ohio State (with Help from Colin and Gillian)

So, there was a BIG Penn State Football game on Saturday night... maybe you read about it. And though they were only about 26 hours old, Colin and Gillian wanted to do their part to cheer on the Lions. It was a good thing that they had their Penn State hats with them at the hospital so that they could show their Lion Pride.


Uncle David and (soon-to-be) Aunt Mercedes stopped by to meet their new niece and nephew (and as it turned out to admire their PSU apparel).

Lastly, since people have mentioned that there are no shots of the new dad with any of his progeny, here's one from before the game:

Michael's dream

So, Michael had a dream to share this morning. Those of you that know Michael well will realize this was truly momentous. In the seven years we've been married, he's had about 4-5 dreams that he's remembered. In his whole life I bet he has remembered less than 20 dreams. I, on the other hand, can remember about 20 dreams a week. I think he's just too sound a sleeper to remember when he dreams.

Anyway, this morning Michael tells me he had a dream that HE was pregnant with Alpha and was ready to deliver. Apparently, I was still carrying Omega, but somehow Michael was blessed with the other twin. He was in the hospital, I think, but he was in some sort of empty bathtub. I asked if the doctors were concerned that a man was about to give birth. He said they were. I asked him how it felt to be pregnant and ready to deliver. He said it was scary. Take whatever lesson you want from this dream. Personally, I think it reveals some anxiety on Daddy's part. Although, Mommy doesn't have any less, so we're probably even!

Alternately, it may have had something to do with the level of beer ingested during the Penn State game last night. You decide.
