Welcome!

We're thrilled to share our happenings with family and friends across the country. We've been married for almost five years. We moved to Sacramento, CA in May 2007 to begin new careers and a new chapter in our lives together. Since then, we have purchased our first home, adopted another dog (Felix) in addition to Easy, and welcomed our first child, Carter, into the world in 2008. Our second child (sex and name still TBD) will be arriving near Halloween this year. All of these topics will, we're sure, be the subject of future posts. Check back regularly for updates! David, Jackie, Carter, Baby Koenig, Easy & Felix

Chicks Dig Me


Unfortunately, Carter's crankiness has increased in the past week. We've scoured the books and talked to friends, and it seems to boil down to this: he's just cranky. Thankfully, it doesn't appear to be colic. More thankfully, Dave's schedule has allowed him to step in and come to the rescue every time I'm thisclose to losing it. At least, God bless him, Carter has decided to finally take the pacifier (mommy is very grateful). Of course, of the 10 that we have, only one works (no joke). In case you don't have super-human eyesight, the pacifier that Carter has chosen says "Chicks Dig Me." The funny thing is that each time we offer him the pacifier, the same comic routine ensues: Carter protests, cries harder, gags, stutters, and then miraculously calms down and/or falls asleep. I'll have to try and record the pitiful display sometime in the next few days and upload it for your viewing/listening pleasure.
