The wee-one's birthday!

Amongst all the fun art news is the news that the youngest of our two best works, Kaili, is a year old today! I've a fun video of her eating part of a birthday doughnut this morning that I'll post later.

Happy birthday, Kaili-boo!

The Minnesota Zoo

This past weekend we took the girls on their first trip to the Minnesota Zoo. It was cold and wet outside (plus the first snowfall of the season which delighted Alix), but inside it was wonderfully tropical.

On top of all that, Alix was able to get up close and personal with a sand shark.

If you haven't been to the Minnesota Zoo before, it's well worth a visit. We found the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly, there are many wonderful animals to learn about, and the aquariums are stunning. Actually, that was my favorite part; I could've sat and watched the fish all day.

Better yet, the monkeys didn't throw poop at us. That's always a bonus.

Good luck,

Proud Daddy x2

My wife gave birth to our second daughter this past week, making me the proud daddy of two beautiful girls! Kaili Cole McNutt was born Tuesday morning at 8:37. She's a little peanut, almost a full pound smaller than our first, but strong as can be, and she's an eating machine... It took us a while to name her, as we had several girls' names to choose from; we had only one boy's name, which virtually guaranteed it was going to be a girl. But by the late afternoon, we had decided on Kaili (pronounced "Ky-lee").

Nicole is doing well - she's feeling great, actually, but she's dealing with some high blood pressure issues which we're keeping close tabs on. Alix is such a good "little big sister" and shares her blankets with her little sister, and lets us know the second Kaili is awake.

Somehow I'm lucky enough to have such a beautiful family; a wife of beauty, strength and grace, and daughters who follow in their mother's footsteps.

Truly, I am blessed.
