It may not last long, but the rain finally has taken a break! It’s amazing how many people were outside today, walking dogs, playing at the park, and riding their bikes. Vancouver is beautiful when the rain stops (and it drives you nuts when it hasn’t stopped for …

In case you hadn’t heard, Ily is pregnant and due on June 29th. We had The Ultrasound today, and the anatomy was clear, it’s a boy. Isaac has declared that we will name him Jacques. We’re not so sure, but it sounds like a good fetal nickname …

It’s been a long time, but I’ve rewritten this website to make it a whole lot easier to update and maintain. I’ve added new features, like different news topics, the ability for you to comment on news items, and news feeds (The BBC explains these pretty well …
