Evie Kay was born yesterday at 7:53am, weighed 7 pounds 12.7 ounces, 20 inches long.
So I made the smallest little “person” in the logo pink, since, as previously mentioned, it’s a girl. Her name will be Evie Kay, if you’re interested.
Also, as of Elise’s last doctor visit, the due date has been bumped up by a couple days, to 10/20. And her doctor said he will probably schedule the C-section for 7-10 days before that. So, realistically, we’re looking at October 10-13 for the final date, but we’re not going to know that for awhile yet. If I had my druthers, I’d go for the 10th, because really, how awesome would it be to have a birthday on 10/10/10?!
So that’s that. It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything, so I figured I probably ought to get with that.
I’ll try to post some new pics of Jhonen here in a few days, as well. He’s growing up so fast. He’s getting quite a vocabulary, lately, with words as well as associated actions/sounds (like, he makes a “trunk” with his arm, and makes a trumpet sound, when you say “elephant”). It’s great. We’re having so much fun with him as he grows up. Here lately, Mom and Dad have also somehow managed to become toys. He grabs our clothes and drags us around, putting us down into chairs or making us get on the floor or whatever. So that’s fun.
Anyway, like I said, I’ll post some pics here in a bit. Just wanted to post a quick update since it’d been awhile.
Here are a few pictures of Jhonen playing with his Easter basket, and playing in the back yard with the Cozy Coupe he got for Easter.
It’s been a minute or two since I’ve posted pics of Jhonen, so here are a handful that we’ve taken over the past few months.
Jhonen is 1 year old today! Hooray!
And of course we have the obligatory chocolate cake pictures. Enjoy. 
And just for kicks and grins, that one there at the end is a reminder of what he looked like this time last year.
*Sniff* My little boy’s growing up so fast!
Here are a few more cleaned up pics. One of them shows a better view of the beautiful pirate treasure chest that Jhonen’s great-grandpa made for him.
When we were up in Kansas City over Halloween, we got some good pictures taken of Jhonen by a semi-pro photographer, who gave us the DVD with all the original high-rez photos. Nice. So I’ve taken a couple of the better ones and retouched them a bit. Jhonen didn’t do much smiling, unfortunately, but he still looked pretty cute anyway.
Finally got a new stick of memory, so I can actually open Premiere without wanting to kill myself. Here’s a video from a couple months ago, just a few days after Jhonen had learned to crawl. He was still a bit unsteady. He’s a lot faster now, of course.
PS. I’m still trying to figure out how to use Premiere/AfterEffects to clean up the video a little bit. I know I just have a crappy consumer-grade DV camcorder, so I’m not expecting Lord of the Rings or anything. But cleaning up the graininess and evening out the lighting just a bit would be nice. If only I could edit video in Photoshop… *sigh*
Let’s get things started with a couple videos. These are a bit old, from a few months ago. We’ve shot a couple newer videos of Jhonen crawling and stuff, but for now they’re still being worked on. One of the memory sticks in my computer died, so for now, opening up Premier is an exercise in futility. Once I get replacement memory ordered and installed, when I can actually edit video without my computer having a coronary, I will get the newer ones uploaded.
But for now, these will have to do. Click the links to view. If you don’t already have it, you will need Adobe Flash Player to watch them.
Here’s a couple pics of Jhonen’s awesome bath hair, because I need to test gallery posting.
I am still doing quite a bit of testing and tweaking on the new site, so please forgive anything that doesn’t look quite right. Once I finalize everything, we’ll try to be a bit more regular with the updates.
