Banal Minutiae

This is a place for Grant, Gretchen, Claire and Charles to keep track of what's going on in our lives and keep our friends and family updated as well.

So....how are the kids?

Claire just weighed in at 45 lbs at the doctor. She's apparently full of urine and red-wine vinegar. At least that's the official reading. To her mother and father, she's known as "She-who-shall-not-be-satisfied." Pretty much everything leads to pouting lately, but I'm thinking it's on the wane.

Charlie is up to 25 lbs and is sprouting like four new teeth. That's really pissing him off apparently. He screams a lot. He screams for food. He screams for love. He screams when he sees a dog...did I mention he screams?

Life is loud and hectic around the house. I don't envy my beautiful wife who gets to stay home all day with the kids. Soon she'll be back at work and missing that time (yeah right).

I hope your nipples fall off



Aargh... I've been posting too many stupid videos and not enough family junk. I promise I'll do better. In the meantime, concentrate on the interpreter in this video.
