Cast of Characters

Since this baby will be here soon, I feel the need to create a glossary of sorts. If you visit us often, and we hope you do, it will be important to know who is who in every picture/comment/blog mention. So here we go:

Baby=our baby; name to be released later
Dad=Sam
Mom=Corrie
Oma=Corrie's mom, Penny
Opa=Corrie's dad, Tim (these are Dutch words for grandma and grandpa)
Nana=Sam's mom, Harriet
Grandpa=Sam's dad, Steve
Grandma=Sam's stepmom, Melissa
Mikey=our dog
Travis, Erin, and William=aunt and uncles on Mom's side
Sarah and Ben=aunt and uncle on Dad's side (they're married, not brother and sister)

You can see this baby already has much family, not including any of our friends who are like family. There is also much potential for a lot of cousins in the future. Somebody get on that, will ya? We broke the ice--it is easy now to follow suit.
