Getting back to normal...
Last night was our first night with mom, dad, Augie, and the dogs all sleeping in one room. We tried it the first night Augie was home, but the first time he "complained" with a noise, Shadow got a bit energetic. :-)

The Leica D-LUX 3 I have has a 4x zoom, so I couldn't get a close-up, but if you click on either image you will get a larger version.

This picture is of mom and Augie in mom's car outside the hospital--preparing to have daddy chauffeur them home.
Well, grandma has cooked up some tacos for the family, so time to head into the kitchen...

Being born is tiring...
At the same time that dad is about to have time free up by finishing college, a little bundle of joy has arrived to make sure he doesn't get bored. Augustine joined the Fahrner clan yesterday at 8AM (8/15). There are no words that can fully express the blessing from God a child is...
