Damm briefs

Welcome home, Sydney!
Katie and I met baby Sydney last Friday. She is gorgeous! I resisted the urge to scoop her up right away and let her observe us for a few minutes. She is one cuddly, sweet baby girl. Jackie has eased right into motherhood, as any of you who know Jackie would expect.

Katie before church Sunday

Katie has recovered from a high fever that started just after her ear surgery. We had a scary few days, but she is healthy and bubbly again. She's discovered that she can walk about as fast as she can crawl. It is so fun to watch her toddle, gaining confidence each day. The ladies in the church nursery hadn't seen her in two weeks, and they were shocked to see how much she was walking yesterday.

The Dolphins huddle before Saturday's game.

Cooper's soccer team has played two games so far, and we've got two this week. He scored a goal Saturday! The past two seasons he was content to hang out by the goal, more worried about the opposing team scoring. This year he's showing off his improved dribbling skills and moving down the field.


We enjoyed dinner with the Pry-Beckas a couple of weeks ago. Conor is looking more like a little boy. He and Cooper have a great time playing together. If we lived a bit closer, we'd get them together every night -- it would guarantee them both a good night's sleep as much as they wear each other out.
