People often ask whether I miss my cat (sent to live with my folks due to Margot’s allergies). Nah: now we have another warm little companion who sleeps 20 hours a day, popping up just occasionally to eat & flip out. 🙂 Here he is with his dad & Grandpa Nack. (Watch for his little bicep-kiss!)

Meeting the Nack Grandparents
Finn’s Grandma Nack (!) arrived on Tuesday, and his Grandpa Nack (!) joined us yesterday. So far it’s been great to introduce them to the little dude & to talk a walk, though he’s been somewhat fussy. (Right now Margot is dancing with him, singing a little Nada Surf song (something about Finn having “a party in his diaper”), and that seems to be working.) Here are some photos of the visit so far.
Finny Go Bragh
Hey everyone–Happy St. Paddy’s Day! The wee man has of course gotten into the spirit of the day, thanks especially to a very cute out from our neighbors Kristin and Steve. He actually got a little too into the spirit, pounding drinks last night and then coating himself in puke (too much info, I know, but I couldn’t resist ;-P)).
Update: See also the very funny “Stuff White People Like” post about the holiday.
Walking with Alethea
We’re having fun hanging with our pal Alethea, introducing her to Finn and letting her take on some of the “honeydo” tasks that I’ve been shouldering. (3am shushing remains my gig, however. ;-P) Yesterday we all went for a walk while I put the “papa” back in paparazzo.

I’m honestly trying not to overload the world with shots of this little character but, well, who am I kidding? Here are some recent snaps:
- — Our first night at home (the start of a looooong evening!)
- — Just hanging around the casa
- — Meeting our pals Bryan and Alex
More to come!

Hello, World!
Hello, everyone! Margot and I are just beyond elated that our little Finnmaster General has arrived. 🙂 We thought we’d start this little blog to chronicle some of the goings-on of the little guy and our thoughts about the whole experience. (Hey, dad’s got to have *something* to do while up at 3am, and maybe this way we’ll bore fewer of our friends with in-person stories of BMs, spit-ups, and the like. :-))
To get things started, let me point you to a few photo galleries we’ve posted:
- Finnegan Arrives!
- Finn & fam in the delivery room (don’t worry, it’s nothing too revealing or outlandish). Thanks to our doula Deidre Lorenzo for taking these great shots.
- Finn’s first bath; apparently that eye-cheese isn’t gonna clear itself…)
We’ll no doubt be burning up the camera in the days, weeks, and months ahead, so we’ve set up a Photos category on this blog. You’ll be able to find the latest and greatest sets of pix by pointing your browser to http://www.jnack.com/finnegan/photos/.
Love,
Team JMF
