and Happy Hanukah, Thanksgiving, Halloween,etc. I think that just about covers all the major holidays we have missed since our last entry. As you can well imagine, much has changed with our dear little Cooper. We estimate that he has...

It is official: Time with a new baby flies by. It seems just yesterday that our little Cooper arrived in the world, and already he is a big two month old. At his two month check-in he weighed in at...

It has been a grand adventure in getting to know our little boy Coop over his first month of life on this planet. We certainly fall in the sterotypical camp of parents who think their kid is the greatest thing...

Hopefully everyone with access to this blog received an email announcing the birth of our beautiful little boy: Cooper Sullivan Stedman Ayers In case you missed it, the highlight of the event is that Cooper arrived at 3:02am on Saturday,...

Matt so, there's no getting around the fact that we're lame. Several months without a monkey update is truly bad form. To sum up the past few months. Baby is growing & healthy Lots of contractions over the past few weeks Baby is still a boy Names are still a secret Baby is still internal We're four days past the official due date but he's clearly not paying attention to the calendar. There are two popular theories: 1. Given the parents, he's bound to be headstrong & uncooperative: get used to a lifetime of this 2. We both work for Microsoft and have a track record of missing our ship dates - why should this be any different? In any case, the nursery is ready, we're eager to meet the little guy and we'll keep y'all up to date with the progress. Barring anything significant in the next couple days, we'll post some pictures of the nursery, Karrie's belly & the dog. take care, -M tag:www.goofylittlemonkey.com,2007://1.4 2007-03-11T04:39:22Z 2007-03-13T06:53:34Z

Our apologies for the delays in updating the blog. Matt and I have always known we were perfect for each other when we realized that we share several similar characteristics, the greatest of which is procrastination. On Friday, however, we...

Karrie After we all finally recovered, Matt got busy and painted the wall downstairs (also known as Sedro's room.) Now that we are nearing the halfway point, the nesting has begun. Here is a picture of me heading into week 19, where things really started to pop: We all have been waiting anxiously to find out whether the goofy little Monkey was going to be a girl or a boy. All bets for me have been on girl. Matt hasn't been as adamant, but his best guess has been girl as well. Sedro, well, he is just overwhelmed by the thought of it: So, after all the waiting, and ruminating, we finally have our answer, but before we spill the beans, you can make your guess looking at the latest ultrasound picture: What was your guess? If you were betting with Matt and I on a girl, then we are pleased to let you know: You are WRONG! :-) If pictures tell the truth, we will be having a beautiful little boy! (We apologize for not including the picture that verifies this fact, but even Matt thought that was a little tacky.) The best news, of course, is that it looks like the baby is really healthy and I am feeling great! Again, sorry for the delays in updates. We will try to be better in the future. Please drop a line when you can and let us know how you are doing! Karrie & Matt]]> tag:www.goofylittlemonkey.com,2007://1.3 2007-02-03T22:53:31Z 2007-02-03T23:03:15Z

Karrie It is probably not hard to figure out how we came up with the name for the website. We are going to try not to be the parents that are so blinded by the love we feel for our child that we can't tell the truth: our baby looks like a monkey. Matt thinks I caused it because I eat bananas everyday. I think my answer is much more likely: The baby looks like a monkey because his/her father is Matt.

welcome... I guess that the first thing to do when creating a blog is explain why you're doing it, who it's for, how the world is better for you having added your voice to the cacophony that is Time Magazine's...
