In a story that’s raging across the blogosphere, Amy’s first cousin Miriam Celedonia and husband Steve Golus welcomed their twins Chella and Grey, born one minute apart and both weighing in at an uncanny 6lbs 3ozs each, into this world! Mom is doing fine and is surely relieved after weeks of bedrest, first at home then at St. Vincent’s hospital. Boy are these two cute! Details:

A big mazel tov to the parents, grandparents, cousins, coworkers et. al.!
A few weeks ago Amy found an old recorder for Sam to play with. He immediately took to blowing through it, and in this video plays along with mom’s French horn. When he first began to get sounds out of it, he’d crack up every time he heard a noise come out. He’s a natural, I tell ya!
About a month ago, Sam began to show us the hand motions to the itsy-bitsy spider song. Here, he’s accompanied by our resident musician. Click on ‘play’ triangle to start video on the page.
I’ve spent some time this weekend working on digitizing and editing videos we’ve taken of Sam over the last six months. The big result of that project was a DVD with all the clips, but I’m slowly working on short outtakes for the blog. I’m using YouTube.com, one of many Web 2.0 sites allowing user-generated content like this to have a (free!) home on the web. This should make it easier for everyone to see these clips. Up first – Sam’s very first visit to the beach when we were in Sarasota in March, visiting Amy’s mom and dad.
