delayed reaction

Title translation: it's been a little too long since the last post. And, you know, that seems to be a growing theme on the other blogs we follow. There have been lots of, "I promise to be better"s and "Sorry--no excuse"s ... Here we are saying the same. But we're back with a promise of at least three posts this week, starting with Baby G, born New Year's Day! Welcome to the world, little man; sorry it's so cold here in St. Louis -- Promise it's not always like this :)
