Seeing the sights in South Bend
We have had a pretty eventful week this week. Amy's friend from high school, Michelle, came up from Houston for the weekend. To celebrate, we started with a dinner at "Fondue!", where we enjoyed melted cheese and chocolate on various breads / fruits. We also went to the Amish Acres Arts & Crafts fair, which (despite its name) has little to do with either the Amish or the Acres. We also exposed Michelle to her first dinner of East Indian cuisine; she really enjoyed it.
Also, Ryan Patrick has passed his month-old birthday. We, ever the new parents, got a small birthday cake for the occasion. We also have updated stats for the tot: Height - 23.5 inches. Weight - 11.5 lbs. Eyes - blue.
Orientation for the law school is next Friday, with classes starting the following week. I'm starting to get a little nervous (more about the change in routine than anything else), but I'm eager to get to work. Depending on the amount homework they assign, I may turn over the upkeep of the blog to Amy - we'll see how it goes.
Finally, best of wishes and good luck to Monte and Christine (37 weeks into their pregnancy with Ryan Patrick's cousin - http://grossobaby.blogspot.com/ ). Hope all is well, and will post again soon.

We're Gettin' There...
Well, we've moved in (mostly). All of the furniture is finally set up, and all of the clothes are finally put away. All that's left now is to put the "finishing touches" on the house to make it a home. We need to hang pictures, we need to file our misc papers, things like that. Still no new phone numbers, so keep calling our cells. By the way, I noticed we never posted our new address:
1722 Hoover Ave.
South Bend, IN 46615
Ryan Patrick is doing well, and has had a number of firsts - first bath in the sink, first trip to the zoo, first trip to the mall, and first time rolling over (okay, it was more of an accident than an intentional roll, but it's a start). Also, the three of us went to Notre Dame campus and walked around; Ryan Patrick was excited the whole time! The nights are getting better, as far as the baby goes - he's into a routine, eating every three hours, crying every night at 6pm (I call it the nightly "re-boot"), and going through more diapers than I thought existed in the world!
I have posted some photos from the day after the movers dumped piles of our things all over the house ("unpacked"). Thankfully, we have made a lot of progress since then. Also, I have posted some pics of the boy taking a bath, preparing for dinner, and pouting.
