Thanks for asking!
Vlad is doing very well - 2 months old, 14 lbs. I'm tired, but otherwise okay. Struggling with quite of bit of extra weight, but this week I feel like I've recovered my "mental game," as golfers say :-).
And I feel like I've made some spiritual progress this Lent.

All around success, then! I know your a Latin Rite Catholic, but if you get the chance, attend an Akathist to the Most Holy Theotokos on some Friday during Great Lent at your local Orthodox Church. The motherhood imagery used in praise of the BVM, how she fed the infant Christ and is a source of spiritual nourishment for all of us is quite wonderful.
God bless you and little Vlad (and the rest of the chicks and the rooster too!).
