We went to meet my new nephew Finn on Wednesday. I forgot the memory card for my camera, so instead of posting a photo of him, I have to talk about it. (There's definitely photos of him on my sister-in-law's flickr).

I couln't believe how small he was. He was only 1oz less than Stephen's birth weight, so it was only five months ago when we had a baby that small. He's a cute newborn, and he looked a lot like Stephen as a newborn (although Stephen is turning from red hair to blond now). I was immediately reminded of how helpless a newborn is, even when compared to my five-month-old. It's actually nice now that I can pick Stephen up by his armpits without worrying about him being able to hold his head up. I can even hold him upside down by his legs or toss him into the air a little bit. Can't even come close to that with a newborn.

NPR is doing their "pledge week" and asking for money and talking about how great they are. Through their self-advertising, I found that WAMU FM88.5 has three HD channels, and HD2 is all Bluegrass and American Roots Music. Last time I was in the new car, I tried for a while to switch it over to HD2 or HD3 (more news-related with BBC nightly news and stuff). I can't figure it out and it's killing me!

This house is a wreck. We don't have many goals this weekend:

1. Clean up this house!
2. Feed Stephen some thick cereal on a spoon and record it on the camcorder
3. Buy and carve pumpkins with Martha and Eric

Sounds simple enough, but I'm sure it won't be. Supposed to rain on-and-off until late Sunday morning.
