Got Married, Became Pregnant, Bought House

Melanie and Mark moved to San Francisco in 1992, got engaged in 2000 and eloped on the Big Island of Hawaii on 5/3/7.

After a long search for the perfect home, we finally found one in the Oakland hills. We made an offer -- our first bid for any dwelling, in November of 2007. We found out we were pregnant during escrow, bought the house and moved in on 12/20/2007.



We began planting in anticipation of our newborn.

  1. Your lives have a been filled with many varied experiences. May they only continue to grow and in doing so, making the world a better place. You now have the opportunity to share yourselves with a new member of the human race. You have the gifts within yourselves, so may the path be smooth, and when there are bumps, may they be filled with all that has gone before you. God Bless you all. Love, Mom, Cathy, and now "Nana"

  3. Dear Liam,

    You have been born into a wonderful family. You have loving parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who are waiting to see and hold you, and watch you grow. Your life has been trusted to your mom and dad and they are so well prepared to take you to the highest peaks of life. Their abilities, talents and love for you will sooth all your falls and cries. I am so anxious to see and love you in person. Love Nana

  4. I am glad that Liam is finally here. He is so handsome. We really look forward to coming out and meeting him. I hope you guys are finding plenty of time to rest between feedings and his nap time. I am very proud of how well you took care of Melanie during the labor. She did an excellent job of bringing Liam into the world. She is a very strong woman to have endure so much pain for so long before giving in to the ephidural.
