Nana T. and Opa came over on Friday night to have dinner and build a gingerbread house with Noah.

While the icing firmed up in the fridge, Noah showed Opa some of his artwork.

Last week I chaperoned Noah’s kindergarten class on a field trip to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Admittedly, it was a little late in the season, and not the best day to visit the garden.

Elijah and Jonathan found cool stuff anyway.

Seeing Leni

Friends 3 Comments »

Last week, while Noah was at school, Kate and I stopped by the Hsiaos because Leni was home and we hadn’t seen her in a while. In August Leni was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia. Right now she’s between chemo treatments, and has a long slow road ahead of her, but she’s impressing everyone with how strong she is.

Kate was holding Leni’s hand. I told her to not say anything offensive, Leni’s so strong she might just take the finger with her.

Getting cleaned up for the holidays.

Just a number, just some photos, and just a blog.

This right here… this is my 1000th post. Pretty cool. In that time I’ve uploaded 11,677 photos, and here are 6 more. Last Saturday the weather was perfect and we met up with a bunch of friends at Underhill Playground. Noah climbing with his friend Milo from school.
