I’m excited to say that today I’m on my way to San Francisco to visit family and friends. My sister-in-law, Hai Nhu, just had a baby last week. Little Evelyn was born on August 23rd 2006 at 8:42AM weighing in at 8 pounds 5 ounces and measuring 20". She was a bit jaundiced for some reason, but a few extra days in the hospital cleared that up.

In addition to seeing the new addition to the family, I get to see my sister, Paula, who is also pregnant. She’s due in December. 000_0720_1
As you can see from the picture, she’s settling into this pretty well! My other sister, Mary, also just moved to San Francisco about a week or two ago. So I’ll get to spend time with lots of family.

And, as if that were not enough, nephew Sebastian Alexander was born August 11th at 12:37 am, weighing 8lbs 2oz and measuring 21". Sebastian was born to my brother, Eric, and his wife Allison. Sadly, they are in Massachusetts and I won’t be able to make it out there this time.

It’s a short trip, only about 8 days. But it’ll be fun to see everyone. I haven’t seen these guys for over a year and I’m also missing San Francisco a bit. So forgive me if I don’t get much writing done over the next week.
