Bambino's first picture on the internet

Meet Bambino Becker, the baby inside Jamie. He is kicking and punching Jamie's uterus like you wouldn't believe. Even at an early age in his first trimester Bambino was waving and kicking his wee little limbs. Jamie and I still have not settled on his name, so he will be addressed in the blog as Bambino. In this particular ultrasound picture he is 21 weeks old.

2 More months until baby becker breathes air!

Sorry for not posting faithful followers. I do not really have a legitimate excuse other than busy. Baby is healthy and Jamie is not having any episodes of sickness. We just got a loot of clothes and supplies from a generous friend. I will post a pic later of Jamie opening the box.
For the pictures today we have Curt smelling the baby inside Jamie and us in Big Sur making breakfast. Enjoy and stay tuned

Wonderful and Blessed

This past week has been a blessing. The doctor confirmed that Jamie is super healthy and when we heard the resounding pounding of baby Becker's heartbeat it gave tickles to our ossicles. Such a strong rhythm it is. Bambino has now been growing in Jamie for 24 weeks, and Jamie is looking awesome.
This past weekend Jamie and I drove to San Rafael, CA to see our third guide dog puppy graduate from the program. Curt is a breeder dog and he will be making future generations of guide dogs. We met the family that he lives with and they are immensely lucky and blessed to have him in their home. Visit this page later for some pictures.

Mojave the Lost Puppy

This past Thursday, one of Jamie's pilates client brought a puppy, which she found lost and running around in streets, into Jamie's class. After learning the client couldn't keep the dog at her house until she found the owner, Jamie brought him to our home. So, on Thursday Jamie bathed him, prepared him some rice and cottage cheese to calm his stomach, and brushed off the dead fleas on him. We later found out that this is the second time in a week that this same puppy had been found running around on a busy street. Mojave is the name that we gave him because he had no I.D. or any tags of any kind, not even a microchip implanted. We finally handed him over the SB county animal services and put in an application to keep him if his owner doesn't fetch him. Here is a picture of the little 4 month old German Shepherd in our car.

Exodus 14:14

"The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent"- Exodus 14:14. Jamie shared this verse to me yesterday while I, Ryan, was worrying about our financial situation.
