Life
This is our life. The nitty-gritty, day-to-day story of what we’re doing and our adventures as a family. Sometimes detailed, often mostly a photo journal, filled with lots of pictures of cute little people and occasional longer reflections on Hinds family happenings.

Great-Grandparent Visit
Mim and Papa stopped in for a quick visit with Nora Wednesday (in that night and out the next morning). I think they had a great time with her and we really enjoyed seeing them! Both Nora and Pip really took to Papa, and we were all sad that they couldn’t stay longer. Here’s a…

Bard
Interesting news: I’m not working at Marist anymore.. I was offered a job by Bard College about three weeks ago, and after working out the details, I accepted and gave my notice at Marist.

Dad’s Visit
Well, my dad left Friday and we had a great (busy!) visit. He helped me out with quite a few house things I’d never gotten around to doing, like pianting, getting a second garage door opener, and putting our towel bars on right. We also went to eat a Chris’ resturant and visited the Walkway…

Nora is one month old today! Grandpa Rik, my dad, came for a visit yesterday and we’re having a great time – and keeping very busy! Today, we ran all kinds of errands, including getting the Toyota washed, going to the grocery store, and to Home Depot for painting supplies (dad offered to help me…

Welcome Home
We’ve had Nora home for a week now and have been having a great time with her. She is very easy going (with the exception of the first time Chris and I tried to bathe her – it was too cold) and has been letting us sleep 4-5 hours at a time at night. She…

41 Weeks & 1 Day
Well, we had an interesting doctors appointment today. Chris picked me up from work at 1:00 and we headed, first, to Northern Dutchess for a sonogram and a peek at baby. Baby scored 8/8 on the biophysical profile and looks great. We could even see him or her practicing breathing the amniotic fluid in and…

The 10th Month
Still hanging in there and hanging out. I worked all week this week. It was slowing down a bit since the semester starts Monday, but still relatively busy (I had to finalize my goals for 2009-2010). It wasn’t bad, though, that baby decided to give me this week, because it let me do that and…
