We want our dedicated blog readers to be among the first to know that Katherine is pregnant. Our second baby girl is due to arrive in mid-February. We had the big 20-week ultrasound today — see below for a picture of her rubbing her eyes!

Claire has asked us to collect applications from aunts, uncles, grandparents, and friends interested in entertaining her early next year. She’s partial to long walks around the neighborhood, swinging in the park, and eating sand. Must be able to multitask efficiently, dice avocados, and wipe dried squished peas off the kitchen floor while her parents adapt to her little sister.
