My Little Lamb and Me

In the spirit of Halloween, here’s our boy in his little costume (with me).

More Halloween pics are here.

If you’re looking for the latest pictures of Callum they can be found here.

A new video from Michael.

At long last, after three+ years of marriage, Michael and I got a letter from Immigration asking us to come in for what is called the AOS (for adjustment of status) interview. You wouldn’t believe the pile of paperwork we are expected to bring with us. All going well, Michael will get the all- important green card in less than two weeks!

It’s been a few weeks but I keep thinking back to this NPR story that really made me laugh. So very clever!

I am pleased to announce that our genius son Callum has rolled from front to back for the first time (so far as I know). We are so proud.

A divine confluence of events — the Harrison Street exit being closed for Bay Bridge construction, the joys of being able to get the carpool lane (thanks to Callum making 3 in the car), and the exact time of year we find ourselves in — has been making for some beautiful drives into the city. We come over the bridge just as the sun is coming up and turning the water shades of magenta and orange. Sometimes, the fog is rolling in, giving the whole scene an otherworldly feel. We can usually see Alcatraz, with its flashing lights, and often the Golden Gate Bridge (when it’s not covered completely by fog.) I took these pictures with my cameraphone yesterday morning. Not the greatest quality but hopefully they can serve to share what have been some lovely early-morning moments.

UPDATE: More SF at dawn pix here.

Callum sleeps like an angel in his car seat on the way home one recent day.
