John is a computer engineer, which means he can design the chips and components used in computers. He enjoys reading and writing science fiction and fantasy novels, and he plays hockey whenever he can.
Shannon gave up a full-time desk job for full-time momhood. She loves aerobics, watching I Love Lucy and BBC's Pride and Prejudice, and listening to great chick lit books on CD. She's a certified group fitness and Zumba instructor. Want to know when and where Shannon teaches Zumba? Go to zumba.com and click on "Find an Instructor."
Wesley joined the family on September 12, 2007. We learned shortly after his birth that Wes has Down syndrome.
John and Shannon have been married since July 2002, enjoy life together, and still feel like newlyweds.
she’s so pretty! Jonathan would immediately be drawn to the finger-up-the-nose picture, since he tries so hard to teach that to our girls.
did I ever mention how impossible that anti-bot verification is when I log-in? I have to refresh it a dozen times before I get one that I can barely make out. just FYI. :)
I know. I just told John about the anti-bot verification thing last night because I’ve started just listening to it (there’s an option for that) since I can never read it myself. He said he made it harder to read because the spy-bots were getting into the blog when it was easier to read.
