Saving for College

By some estimates, in state tuition plus expenses at state colleges will cost between $30-40k per year by the year 2025. At private colleges, these estimates are as high as $100k+ per year. With this in mind, we're planning to start a 529 college savings plan for the little guy. If anyone out there has any suggestions based on your own experiences, let us know. We'll post some of your ideas at a later date.

Graham's Dedication and a New Movie

Graham was dedicated, along with a few other children, at our church on Sunday, 3/2.

Here's a video of Graham testing his vocal chords. His favorite things these days seem to be making noises, playing with his feet, and dancing to upbeat music. We'll try to post videos of these last two things sometime soon.

In other news, we took our first outing without Graham on Saturday. We went to the Studio Movie Grill and enjoyed lunch while watching Juno. What a great movie.

Finally, of course, for all of our friends and family who live in Texas, don't forget to vote on Tuesday! The Dallas Morning News seems to have a good guide to the state and local candidates for anyone who needs to do last minute research.
