Keegan's

Abby,

You are sitting with your mom on the patio of Keegan's Irish Pub in Minneapolis, MN.  It was on this very patio that I met your poppi.  And because I met him there, I met your mom.  And because I met her, I fell in love with her and we got married.  And after we got married?  Well then it was time to have wonderful babies like you and Benjamin!  And by the time you know how to read, I'll bet that you have more brothers or sisters.  I sure hope so, because we love you soooo much!!!

Teeth

Abby,

If you look closely there you'll see two teeth!  I'm not sure if we've got a picture when you had just one.  So much the better because you are so pretty in this picture!!  You suffered a bit each time a tooth came in.  Putting on Orajel helped, but you hated it!  You screamed like the dickens every time I put it on. But in the long run it always worked out better that way.

Dad
