Veterans Day.

For those who served so that we may live free.  Thank you for the gift of our freedom, and our children's freedom.  That's you Daddy and Grandpa and Great Grandpa Berner, Karen and Frank Sartiano and many other members of our family.  God Bless you all!

My little Olive.

 Your little embryo has now officially graduated to fetus-hood. Adding to the excitement, a Doppler ultrasound device might be able to pick up the beating heart. With basic physical structures in place and increasingly distinct facial features, baby is kind of starting to look like... well... a baby!
