A New Addition to the Family

We are pregnant!!  Sara is 12 weeks along and her due date is somewhere between December 30th and January 4th.  As you can imagine we are very excited.  So far Sara has been very very tired, but luckily she's had very little sickness.

We will find out the gender in our 20 week check-up which will be in August.  We've included a couple shots of the little one below.

This is at about week 8.  Sara sees a smiling whale while Anthony's first thought was a duck swimming to the left (with a tiny beak).  If this were an ink blot test what would our guesses say about us?  What do you see?

This is at about week 10.  This is less animal and more human like.  Whew.  

The Fire Win!

Our neighbor, Francis, his little girl, Madeline, Sara and I all went to the Chicago Fire vs. New York Red Bulls MLS match this afternoon.  It was great fun!  And while the video below may suggest otherwise, Madeline was really into the match and cheering (and dancing) along with the crowd for most of the time.  The Fire won 3-1. This was the celebration of the third goal:

(Sara wouldn't allow me to get her on video - you may notice an abrupt stop as I started panning to the right).  :)

Here are some photos from the match.

Taking Off and Landing

Spent some time around O'Hare last night.  Here is the whole set.  It was a beautiful night for a flight.

I tried some post processing by layering multiple photos on top of each other...
