FEBRUARY 1999


Granddad reads a story to Katie


As February rolled around we were finally adjusting to having the kids at home. They were
almost 5 months old, but developmentally not even 2 months. We had nighttime nursing help
and daytime grandmother care, both of which were godsends. Chris' two hernias had been repaired,
which improved his disposition markedly, and the kids were adapting well to their routine.

Here they are on Dad's birthday - February 9...


...And with Mom a few weeks later!
