Easter (hopefully more Weifenbach than Geddes)

A New Girl

Frances Ray, born March 8 at 1:08 pm.

Two winners for the contest: Sara for getting the date closest (March 7th), and Morgan for guessing a girl. We can work out the details soon for a print.

Everyone up to the last minute was convinced that it would be a boy. Even the doctor and all the nurses thought it would be a boy.

We started panicking about names. Our best idea for a boy was Rosco. In retrospect Rosco was maybe not such a great idea, So we are happy and excited to introduce Frances to the world.

Still Waiting

Guessing Game

Tomorrow, Mar 1st, Sonya will be one week past due. I know I should have done this sooner to give everyone a chance, but I only have 3 readers of this blog anyway, so here goes:

Send me your guess as to the date, time of birth, and whether it'll be a boy or girl, and the person who is closest will win 1 free 11"x14" print. Your choice if you want, or mine if you are open. You can post in the comments or send me an email.

Ephemera

Postcard Luck

Some postcards are too good to give up. Yesterday i drove to richmond and stopped in to Chop Suey Books, bought "Our Band Could Be Your Life" and then saw an article on John Whiting. He owns a paper ephemera booth in Hanover Antique Village near Mechanicsville. I found a lot of good finds.
