I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve got a diaper to change so I&#8217;ll make this quick&#8230;

		<title>4D Ultrasound at 31 weeks, 2 days&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Just two months to go!  She currently weighs in at (roughly) three pounds, seven ounces&#8230;just a tad bigger than she was the last time you saw her.  Here are a few images from the 4D ultrasound yesterday (and perhaps it&#8217;s just a proud dad talking here, but isn&#8217;t she absolutely beautiful?):

		<title>Harrison grew up!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, at least physically&#8230;and we think he&#8217;s got a lot more growing to do.
You might remember little Harrison from my earlier post, &#8220;New Kitten&#8221;, but it&#8217;s been almost a year since then so I figured you might want to see what he looks like now&#8230;

		<title>Predatory lending pisses me off.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I was reading an article on CNN regarding the lending crunch resulting from the current subprime mortgage mess&#8230;you know the scenario: A greedy lender offers their customer a toxic ARM without making clear the risks of such a loan.  The customer could afford a better (fixed) loan, but jumps out of his/her seat [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuff and the Fins&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

My boy Tuff Harris has already gotten his first taste of the NFL a couple weeks into the preseason.  What makes this even better, however, is that he signed on as a free agent with my team of choice, the Dolphins, and he&#8217;s so far survived the first round of cuts. Best of luck [...]]]></description>

She currently measures about 12 to 14 inches tall, weighs in around 13 ounces, seems to like sucking her thumb, and can kick like a mule.  As such, I&#8217;m proudly displaying [...]]]></description>

		<title>Expecting!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been awhile since my last post, but I needed some worthy news to motivate me.  What, you ask, could be so worthy? I like to think our first baby is big enough news.  This was taken when my wife was 7.5 weeks along (she&#8217;s now just over 3 months)&#8230;the baby was about [...]]]></description>
