As you can see, there's some new content here, and a brand new look for Kaiserstrasse. I'm newly dedicating myself to, at the end of each week, having posted, on average, at least one new picture per day. If you have comments or concerns, please feel free to use the comments to the post, or, of course, you can email me.

Weekend at Joe's cabin
My friend Joe let us stay at his cabin for the weekend a few weeks ago. It was really nice. Not only did both kids nap at the same time on Saturday, so Bridgette and I got to have a real, unscheduled, adult conversation, but the kids really loved being in the woods. Owen proclaimed "My Joe's cabin" as we went to leave (which, frankly, demonstrates a radically poor understanding of property law). 
An accurate shirt
Not only does it fit in size, but it fits in description! It's a doubly fitting shirt!
Southern Belle
My brother is of the opinion that I live in the South, because I live south of the Mason-Dixon line, even though Maryland was never a conferderate state. Here, as, I suspect, we prepare for a trip to Virginia, Zoe was dressed as a proper Southern girl, hat and all. And, of course, this photo was taken before Labor Day.
B with kids
Here's B with the kids. This was the day of the USC-Nebraska game, so Zoe's in a Husker outfit (though a fat lot of good that did).
Owen is now going to Sunday school
Well, not right this second (this second he's asleep upstairs), but these days he's going to Sunday school. Here, he surveys the room in my arms (my glasses are visible in the far right of the shot), and is not completely resolved in his emotional reaction.
Ascending the stairs to Sunday school
Owen is walking up the stairs to go to his first day of Sunday school.Isn't it amazing how it costs nothing to take a picture with a digital camera?
Owen runs into church for Sunday school
He was really moving. I think he swallowed a bug, which explains the face.
A long look back at toddlerhood
Here, Owen walks out of the house on his way to his first day of Sunday school. Some say the first day of Sunday school is the day after the last day of toddlerhood. Regardless, it marks an indelible line between the past and the present. Owen takes a look back at the house as he goes to the car to go to church. Was he thinking of this life transition as he looked back? I don't know. All I know is that he looked at me shortly after this photo was taken and said "juice."
Nice moment
I don't know what was said shortly before this photo was taken, but it looks like Candice and Kristi were having such a nice moment.
Ladies night
Candice and Kristi introduce Zoe to ladies night. I think they're making fun of Cosmopolitan in this picture. Zoe picked up the basic themes quickly. Owen and I were working on the lawnmower engine and chewing tobacco in the backyard when this photo was taken.
The very first bite
Here, Zoe has her very first bite of solid food. Check out how much she's looking forward to it!
Owen watches Zoe eat
Zoe had her first solid food (see the post below). Owen, here, watches, worried that his developmental superiority will soon be diminished. Happily, he is able to calm himself with the realization that he knows a LOT more about construction equipment than Zoe, who doesn't even speak English.
Zoe's first meal
Zoe has started on solid food! Here, she has her first meal. She's really taken to it much more quickly than Owen did; by now she's a total pro. I think she went from spitting food out to just eating it like nothing in about three weeks (compared to about a month and a half for Owen).
