For the second time in a year, we’re packing up. This downtown apartment served us well for 11 months and we’ll miss the convenience & neighbors, but it’s on to the farmhouse. Russert is really excited about the backyard and wild turkeys.

I’ve been quite behind on any blog updates, but this has been one busy stretch of life between weddings, work, baby coming and the new house. I still haven’t uploaded any pictures of the new place, but below is a look at the entrance with new slate tile being installed & kilim beige paint (yes, I know many paint colors by name now). Great choice cousin Mike. Thanks Matt & Dad for the painting help, and our families for all their ongoing support and advice. I don’t think we’ll be moving again for a little while.

And all this time, I thought I was killing the life expectancy of my joints. This article from NY Times Magazine sites a 10 year study of marathon runners and the impact on their joints over that time. According to this study, running can actually help maintain the health of your knee. Pretty interesting…I guess it’s time to sign up for another marathon. Read here.
Here’s a picture of Rachel with 3 months until the scheduled arrival of Baby Ash.
We were up in the Lake Placid area last weekend for our good friends’ wedding. It was the most beautiful wedding we’ve been to (other than our own of course). They were married on a very small island in Upper Saranac Lake & then had the reception at an open air building overlooking the Adirondacks. You really pulled it off, Rob & Maureen….Congratulations!
