Grandpa finally got to hold his grandson. Steve had to go to London before Blake came home and never got to hold him. Here they are together…Steve straight from the airport after an overnight flight, so he looks a little tired. Blake, as you can see, is more concerned with the size of that nose!
Give Him a Moustache…
…and he looks just like Grandpa! Unfortunately Blake is not coming home with Dawn tonight. She should be discharged about 8 PM, but they want to keep Blake a little longer. The good news is that the respirator was removed yesterday and the IV today. He’s still in the Special Care Unit and is only hooked up to heart, pulse and temperature monitors. Yesterday he had trouble keeping down food, but that seems OK today.
We’ll keep you all posted!

Ring Around the…
Sun! Have you ever seen a rainbow like this? We experienced a circular rainbow while on vacation in Cancun this past week. I haven’t done any research yet…anyone know why, how or when this occurs? It was unbelievably fascinating!!!
Not a bad shot from my little digital camera either, huh? Of course, I was blind for the next few minutes!
Elliot’s Cross-Country Trek
What a great visit with Elliot and friends Joe and Adam! I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time! They were very interested in learning the dynamics of the Fall family…and engaging themselves in every competition we could dream up (from the proper way to speak to pool and air hockey)! I’m so sorry we had to go away on Saturday. I understand Steve and I missed out on a great day in Chicago.
Gary – you should have a blast on Wednesday!
Do you dream?
I woke up this morning after one of my typical nights of dreaming. The “star” of this dream was Gary. He had just gotten a review at work and wasn’t too happy about it. So he came to the family for advice. We were living in Chalfont. Mommy, Kenny and Ronnie were in the dream. Mommy and I intervened…kind of like attending a “parent-teacher” conference with Gary’s boss. Kenny & Ronnie were “background” constants; Kenny complaining that he was having similar problems at work and Ronnie just standing there laughing (we were all current age except Ronnie who was a teenager)!
Weird. Do any of you dream? Steve says he doesn’t, or at least never remembers them. I dream nightly. Maybe it’s just a female thing??????
