So our days are jam-packed now pretty much 24 x 7. Megan is into the throws of Kindergarten and homework.  Yeah, homework.  They don’t mess around too much around here.  They know what it takes to build a good educated Democrat here in California – that’s blue state humor.  Well, all in all, Megan’s activities are under control and structured and doesn’t really take up too much time out of the day. The other 20 hours of the day are taken up by housework, work work, and taking care of Julian.  He is growing rather quickly into a happy joyful little baby boy and we are grateful.

The day finally arrived – it was a bit earlier than originally expected, but welcome nonetheless.  The day was last Wednesday, June 18, 2008 and events started with a phone call – (just like in the movies).  It was pretty exciting.  And, with the usage of web2.0 socialization technologies Flickr and Twitter, I was able to blog events in near real-time with my BlackBerry.  (I know.. I know.. it’s sooo “Jimmy Olsen” of me):
