Welcome to Newbie's first blog...

Who is Newbie? The surprise growing in my belly, of course. We chose to leave the sex of the baby a surprise until delivery, in order to rejoice in the thrill of "It's a ....!!!!"


We're open to guesses, tricks and old wives tales, tarot readings, anything but the sonogram that reveals the secrets of Newbie's nether regions.

An artist's view

Our Long Beach, CA friends Cari and Eric were visiting the weekend after Thanksgiving, and we took them to the Nasher Sculpture Center in the Dallas Arts District. It's my favorite museum space in Dallas, with its open space and natural lighting, as well as the garden walk behind the museum. Cari was actually the first person to tell me about the Nasher when I moved here five years ago, but she hadn't been able to visit it yet. So it was fun to go there with her.
She took this picture next to a Picasso sculpture. Not an exact likeness (thankfully), but I can definitely appreciate the emphasis placed on the belly as well as the bosom! Yeah...that's kinda what it feels like!
