For those interested (and even if you are not, I’m telling you anyway), we will be at Christiana Hospital through Thursday morning.  If you get a chance, stop in and meet Jeremiah for yourself!  We’re in room 3B30.

Celebrate with us as we welcome Jeremiah Steven Jeantet into the world.  He was born on Tuesday, September 23, at 5:31pm.  He was 20.25 inches long and weighed 7 pounds and 9 ounces.  He is very healthy (as is Kim).  It was a long day, but an incredible joy as we welcomed Jeremiah into our family.  Check out all the pics.

Well, I guess that Fox decided to scrap the Jack in Washington and Tony goes evil storyline.  Instead, we get what appears to certainly take 24 in a new direction!  Check out the trailer…

Kim and I are just waiting.  We wake up each morning wondering if today is going to be the day we rush off to the hospital!  Keep praying for us as one day soon we will get to welcome our little boy into the world!

I’ve been reading the Sports Guy at espn.com for the last several years.  One of his regular columns is a mailbag in which he responds to actual emails he receives.  Anyway, the following is from the most recent mailbag

Q: Brady’s injury gave me an idea for your mailbag: “If you had the power, would you take so-and-so’s injury yourself so that he could play? In this case, would you allow your knee to be blown out, have surgery and go through rehab if it meant Brady’s knee never got injured and he played the whole season? Or if you’re a Vikings fan, would you give yourself a sprained knee so Adrian Peterson could have played all 16 games? How severe would an injury have to be before you said “No way I’m taking on that so that (insert star player’s name here) could play.”
– John B., Valley Stream, N.Y.

SG: Excellent idea. I think it depends on your mindset as a sports fan in that specific time, as well as your age. For instance, I wouldn’t absorb Brady’s injury because I wouldn’t want to be on crutches for a few months when I have two young kids, and besides, they won three Super Bowls this decade. But let’s say you’re my friend Mike Tollin, a die-hard Philly fan who’s a little older than me and has older kids. If the Mets and Phillies were tied with a week to go and Ryan Howard’s wrist was broken by a pitch, would Mike do the switcheroo and take the broken wrist? Well, I called him and here was his first response:

“The left one or the right one?”

We talked it out for a few minutes and Mike ultimately decided he would sacrifice the left wrist in any scenario, but he’d sacrifice the right wrist only if he was guaranteed a World Series trip because, and I quote, “That’s my writing hand, my BlackBerry hand and my shaving hand … and I wouldn’t be able to play basketball for six weeks … although I guess I could run …” For all I know, he’s still debating it. I’m going out on a limb and saying Philly needs to win a title soon. For everyone’s sake.

Needless to say, the site is changing!  With less than 2 weeks to the due date, we’re getting ready.  While the site is not yet finished, it is coming along nicely.  Check out our new pictures section, including the newest pictures that will update in our sidebar!
