Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!

I put some changes on the site, it archives sooner so your computers don't have to work so hard in loading the initial page. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT PLEASE TELL ME. I will change it if you don't.

Diversity is my middle name

I hope you like the pics below, I think they are the best ones yet! In other news, I have a site that "tracks" this site, which I check into every so often to see how many people are coming to the site. It gives me statistics on who visits from where, how long they stay, what they look at, and other miscellaneous privacy violating stuff. Anyway, the reason I mention it is that this little site seems to have attracted a lot of people to it. I've had about 1,200 "hits" to the site in about a month; and just yesterday, in which I had 150 people visit, 20% of those persons were Mexican (Que?) and I have had visitors from Iceland (I get visitors pretty regularly from Iceland, as a matter of fact), Germany, Denmark, Brazil, Spain, Canada, the UK, and almost every state in the nation. Wierd, huh? About 80% of all my visitors are from Tulsa. The other 20% divides up from Wisconsin and Florida. But yesterday I had 11 visitors from West Boylston, Massachussetts. Hello Massachussetts! I think most of these people are lost, because around 60% of the visitors leave after 30 seconds, 20% stay from 30 seconds to five minutes and 20% stay from more than 20 minutes to an hour. Neat, huh?

That light is bright.

She looks like she is about to cry here. But she didn't.

What? Oh. I'm not supposed to be giggling this early?

Ha! That must have been funny!

Looking right at you

She is looking at me

Good lighting here

She also likes to stick her tongue out at me.

I'm getting sleepy dad.

Closer. She is so wide-eyed!

Same picture

What a great picture! She almost looks scared of me.

Last night shot.

Another night shot

here she is again. See the piglet hat?

Look at those big eyes! That hat and shirt is from my mom.

This is her talking to me.

She is smiling here if you can see it

Some of these pictures are really dark. Sorry about that. I am working on it.

Great news

Well, the doctor called me this morning and said that the long-term brain test that Savannah had yesterday came back and she is perfectly fine. She doesn't have PVL, which would have put her in line for cerebral palsy, and he said her brain looks very good. This is a huge relief, as we were sort of sweating this test. So, super-good news! In fact, the doctor sort of "yipped", which was pretty funny, I get the feeling that our doctor gets sort of wrapped up in the outcome of his babies, which, I have to say, is extremely refreshing. Somtimes you come in there and a nurse treats your very precious daughter as a piece of machinery that isn't functioning right. Most of the nurses are great but there are a few that make us really nervous and never should have chosen to take that nursing major. Should have stuck with art or computer science, cause their bedside manner sucks. Yet I digress. Savannah is doing great and we are very happy!
