My nephew is a mini macho man

Even though I've been threatening to introduce him to books and foreign films and tea drinking and all the other sissy things I do, I think my nephew's machismo is already well-established.

Here he is at five months:

And here he is at seven months:

I hear that when he won the push-up contest, he moved on to a Steven Seagal movie and a case of beer.

Great News from Friends

It must be engagement season! We've had lots of good news from friends this week, and congratulations are in order.

On Sunday, we learned via text message that Jeremy's best friend Matt will marry his longtime girlfriend. Congrats, Matt & Carlyn!

Today, I heard from Becky (in an e-mail coyly titled, "Trip to Seattle?") that she and longtime boyfriend are also engaged. Congrats, Becky & James! (See their wedding site here. I highly recommend a trip through the hall of bears.)

Try not to plan your weddings for the same day, guys. It'll be like we as a culture learned nothing from Bride Wars.

Also, this news has been out there for a few weeks now, but since we're on the subject of expanding families, our friends Amanda and TJ are expecting their third child in the fall. Congrats, Stewart family!
