BLAH! I'm sorry we disappeared for a month! My computer crashed and they had to ship it over seas to get fixed. :( Even though I didn't have access to Flickr and couldn't upload pictures for 52 weeks I still took a picture every week! So again I am terribly sorry for miss four weeks of 52 weeks.
Here are links to the other 3 pictures I've missed:

A fourth generation Arm Slave based on the ARX-7 Arbalest. This was the next evolution for the ARX series and the next generation in Arm slaves, making it the second 4th generation AS, after Belial.
The time of each tide
fades into the calm night's sand
while the moon's white fire
sparks
the night's tarred waves.
- poem written by Virginia & Charlie at this very spot a few minutes after this photo was taken. =]
she also wrote a poem of her own which was awesomer but it may stay in draft form for a long time =P
I have felt so tired lately. Not only tired, but stress and emotions have taken over somewhat. As you have read over the past couple of days about what's going on with my wife and her pregnancy, it has gotten both of us a bit worried about how things are going to turn out. We have hope though that things will work out ok. If you missed what's going on, she is at 18 weeks along in her pregnancy and has had some complications. Her water broke at 15 weeks, and without enough fluid the baby's lungs wont develop. But we met with a high risk Dr. on monday and she was very optimistic about there being enough fluid in there for the baby. Time will tell. We go back in two and a half weeks and will be able to see if the lungs have developed. If they have, at 24 weeks becuase of what has happened, my wife will be put in the hospital until the baby is born. They are planning on the baby to be born early, possibly up to 16 weeks early. Its amazing that babies can be saved that early. But anytime before 24 weeks they cant save a baby. So we are hoping everything turns out for the better. But it sure is wearing us thin.
