Minya Danzan Budschalow Barnes


Well, folks, to all those who have been anxiously waiting, she arrived at 2:08pm on January 12, 2009!! Safe and sound at 9 pounds 8 ounces!! Beautiful as can be. Allison was amazing, and popped her out in merely 6 hours of labor! It was truly an amazing experience to be a part of. Our midwife and doula were beyond stellar, and guided Allison confidently through it all. We are in deep gratitude to you both for delivering our precious baby girl. Thanks to all who sent us your love and support. Now, you just gotta come and meet her. Love to everyone!

Momo - 1/1/06 - 1/10/09


This morning, Momo, our beloved dog, passed away. For those of you who knew him, little description is needed to describe what an amazing dog and companion he was. He had a magnificent soul. May he rest in peace. We love you Momo!!
