My brother-in-law would be very proud of me right now if he knew I were typing this on a Mac...But, I know he has much better things to do, like study for final exams for law school. GO JOHN! We're praying for you to do well. Lauren really needs a rich uncle, because we all know that life is much better when there's one of those around.

My sincerest apologies for not writing sooner, but as you can well imagine the last few months have been hectic beyond belief. A new house, a new job, a new baby on the way...it just doesn't stop. But we're finally getting to the point where we feel a little more settled.

Beth's tummy is making all kinds of crazy motion as Noah's room to move keeps getting a little more cramped by the day. Last week, Beth had an ultrasound and the baby's heartbeat sounded great. Beth only gained a pound since her last visit and the doctor said everything was shaping up really nicely.

We've just about got the house ready for visitors. We have some lights in the front and in the back, but we didn't go Chevy-Chase on anyone this year. Last night was a lot of fun--even though Lauren is a bit under the weather we were still able to drive downtown to Kidde Park and see the drive-through trail of lights. Bartlesville is a small town, but I think there's a lot of money here as evidenced by some of the really nice holiday decorations the city is able to maintain. Anyway, Lauren has been a trooper through this whole ear infection ordeal, and sometime I think it's harder on the parent than it is on the kid.

Work is going fairly well--I have really enjoyed the change of pace and the change in scenery. I think I'm getting ready to be a lot busier, however, as the new year rolls around.

Photography has really taken a back seat as of late. I just haven't had enough time to do much. I have been taking a little more video, though. My new video camera is a lot easier to download to the computer, so hopefully, that will translate to more clips online. We'll see. I have to figure out how to use this Mac, first.

I suppose that's it for now.

Later, Gators.
