Noah was Due Today...

...but he decided to come early.  We're glad to have him no matter the arrival date, though.



"Sure, I was early.  Just don't get used to it."


At the Carson City railroad museum.

More Pictures!

"Why yes, I am quite angelic."



Four Generations.


Toughening up little brother's abs.  (Of course, not really).

Noah is One!

...week, that is.  New Picasa link to the left.



"Oh, the indignities one must suffer..."  (First Bath)!


"Darn, we're cute!"

First Stroller Ride

Trying out the new double!

Look Who's Home!

Well, Noah actually came home yesterday, but I didn't get around to blogging.  So, this will be his welcome home blog.



Great Grandma and Noah.


Hank is thinking: "you brought another one home without consulting me..."



Snug as a bug in a rug (or a Boppy).

"What a great brother!"

"My brother, Noah!"

Carter Meets Noah!

Note the new Picasa link to the left.

Carter meets his brother Noah!

Meet Noah John!

Born 9:21 p.m. on March 18th; 7lbs, 4oz; 20". Mom & baby are doing well. More to come later (it's too hard to do much with a tablet).

Carter's Last Blog as an Only

It's almost time for Baby Brother! Given that, chances are this is Carter's last blog as an only. You never know, though. However, the blog is not done: even though it has been all about Carter, it is called "The Michela Family Blog," after all.


Pictures and video below!


"Whadda ya mean I don't just put toys in this basket?"


"Baby brother is going to have his work cut out for him being cuter than me!"



"My new bed is fun!"


Snow day!

Hank Need a Hat!

Alright Already!

I guess people are still following the blog. So much so that when I don't do one for the relatively short period of a month and a half or so, people complain. :-)

So, for Carter's fans, here's one more (hopefully not the last one) before new baby is born. I'll attempt to make them both more accessible after the new one is born, but no promises.


First time at any ocean, Aptos, CA (near Santa Cruz).



"You mean if I could swim, it's just a straight shot to Asia from here?!"



"More family!"



"No oceans around here, just a chilly park."
