What a baby.


Sleepy little angel, with her baby.


Doing a squat.

Ready to get down.

Descending with grace.

Prayer for Grandma Cook

Glorious St. Rita, patroness of those in need, your intercession with our Lord is most powerful. Through the favors obtained by your prayers you have been called Advocate of hopeless and even impossible cases. St. Rita, humble and pure; patient and compassionate lover of Christ Crucified! We have confidence that everyone who has recourse to you, will find comfort and relief. Listen to our petitions and show your power with God in our behalf. Obtain our petitions for us if they are for the greater honor of God, and for our good. We promise, if our petitions are granted, to make known your favor, and to glorify God for His gift. Relying on your power with the merciful Savior, we ask of you to heal the wounds of Winnie Cook and bring about her recovery.

Francesca Pictures

It is going to be a special treat when we actually see Francesca walking. I love the pictures.

My kudos to Dave and Cara for their green lifestyle. As far as suggestions, it is important that your money be working for you as well. We have had some good advice from Morgan Stanley and others about asset allocation and the like.

Blogging is fun. Jeff - Ludy - Kate - you need to join as contributors.

I like the baby update as well. We look forward to meeting Francesca's little sister.

Jeff and Kate - see you in Chicago.

Love, Dad

Top 7 things the Cooks are doing to conserve money/energy

The rising cost in gas + the increased energy used due to living in a house + trying to be more 'eco-friendly' have led Cara and me to make the following changes in our daily lives:

1. No AC in the car
2. No AC in the house during the day
3. Thermostat set to 75 at night (was at 72 for the longest time)
4. Do better at eating leftovers
5. Use more coupons
6. Dave making his lunch instead of buying lunch each day

Its going pretty well so far... any other suggestions?
