Sage Chunkmeister

So our dear boy is now well over 12 pounds. He's been gaining something like an ounce and a half every day he's been alive...isn't that amazing? He's really rounding out well. It's rather funny to see his chubby cheeks and double chin (sometimes triple, depending on how his head is)

Here he is!And finally, here he is leading us in a roaring chorus of Row row row your boat.

In other news, After 2 months of being here, I've finally received my employment authorization, and have now taken up a position as a graphic designer at a small publishing company nearby.

Also, we have a new car...after borrowing an old 1992 Ford Explorer with a manual transmission, we bought a 1998 Saturn for a mere 2,500 dollars. It works great, and here's a photo of both before we returned the Explorer this afternoon.

In order to get a California driver's licence, I have to retake the written and driving tests again. I passed the written test (one answer wrong out of 36 though,) and I have the driving test this Friday. That should be fun. One interesting thing is that there are online help tutorials in studying for the written exam, with pictures and multiple choice questions. This one was pretty funny...police assistance my heiney...there might be terrorists on the other side of the hill!

So that's it for now, time to face the barrage of phone calls saying 'more pictures of Sage...'
Sorry for not writing more, it's been a busy weekend...I will put more pictures up soon though.
