Baby Franchi

Maureen and I have some news that we are very very exited to share with everyone. Recently we found out that we are expecting the arrival of Baby Franchi!!! Maureen is 9 weeks pregnant, and we couldn't be more excited.

We went to the doctor this weekend, and we got our first pictures, were able to see and hear the heartbeat, and were told our due date...March 1st. Luckily our Doctor is right down the street from the new house.

Maureen is doing well. She has determined she cannot stand vegetables. Also, her sense of smell has surpassed that of world class bloodhounds.

We're overjoyed with the news. I feel like the most blessed man on the planet. We look forward to keeping everyone in the loop during the coming months...

Thank you all for your love and support.
Baby Franchi can't wait to meet you!

Moving Sucks

So we started going through the house and planning out our pack/move........my God. Moving sucks. We only have two beds, a futon, and two couches. We only have a few tvs and other large items. BUT...the thought of moving everything is such a scary one. Just remember this piece of advice my father told me a few years ago. "One day you'll sell this place, and everything you have ever brought in, you'll have to bring out."

The move will be relatively easy compared to packing everything.

Pray for us.

House is Sold!!! WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Well everyone, it looks like the house is sold!!! There are always details to iron out and we still have to make sure we close, but assuming all goes well, we are moving starting Sunday July 29th!!!

Maureen and I are officially calling in some favors.

We need a small army of loyal friends and family to come over and help us move on:

Sunday morning, July 29th (to load the truck and clean the house)
Monday afternoon, July 30th (to unload the truck)

The usual freebies will be included (cold beer, hot pizza etc...)

Its a little bittersweet to move of the 'block', but we're excited to move to Arlington Heights and to have everyone over....

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!!
