Marriages: Eileen Schreiber Radis writes: "Chris and I were married on our anniversary, Oct. 31, in Cleveland, Ohio. We were grateful to share our big day with so many Kellogg friends who left their Halloween costumes at home to come and celebrate our wedding. After our wedding, we went to Hong Kong and Thailand for a fabulous honeymoon."

Births: Josh Lawrence writes: "On Sept. 25, my wife Stefanie and I became the proud parents of Magnolia Rachel Lawrence. Magnolia was born at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital, weighing in at 7 pounds, 3 ounces and measuring 19.3 inches. We can be reached at joshua.w.lawrence@gmail.com, and always enjoy seeing Kellogg classmates when they pass through London."

Janelle Weaver Duthie writes: "Colin and I are thrilled to announce the arrival of Campbell Robert Duthie, born Dec. 16. Our early Christmas present weighed in at 7 pounds, 6 ounces and measured 20.5 inches, and has his parents wrapped around his little finger."

Zenita and Adil Lalani are pleased to announce the birth of their son, Khalin Danyal Lalani, at 9:39 p.m. Jan. 10. Khalin weighed in at 9 pounds, 9 ounces and measured 21.7 inches. ‘Khalin’ in Sanskrit means one who possesses the ability to separate truth from falsehood.

JJ Ofer writes: "Ephy Ofer went into labor during Thanksgiving dinner. Eden Abby Ofer was born seven hours later weighing exactly 3 kg. Mother and daughter are both doing great! I am in London, running the family’s real estate investment and development business there. Ephy is completing her Ph.D. in management at LSE."

Hadar Kramer writes: "Better late than never. Eli and I had a beautiful baby girl on Dec. 8, 2008. Maytal Hava Kramer has been an incredible addition to our family. In her first year of life she has met a number of Kellogg alumni around the world. I am still working at J&J in brand management on the SUDAFED business and we are always up for having Kellogg visitors if you are in the Philadelphia area."

Claire Perrin is happy to announce the birth of baby boy Maxence in Paris. His brother Axel (2) is very proud too!

Chad Jansen writes: "Jen and I are extremely happy to announce the birth of our daughter, Addison Parker Jansen. She was born at 8:52 a.m. on Dec. 31. Addison weighed 7 pounds, 8 ounces and measured 20.5 inches long."

Jessie (Tiernan) Dixon writes: "On June 23, Andy and I welcomed our son, Oliver, into our family. We’re still living in San Francisco and are enjoying city life with our little one in tow."

Brandon Drew writes: "My wife Tara and I started off 2010 by welcoming our second baby boy, Jacob Roger Drew, into the world on Jan. 13. Big brother Patrick (2) seems to be adjusting well so far, and I’m sure he’s looking forward to having a partner in mischief. We continue to live in Atlanta."

Brian Driesse writes: "My wife Brooke and I welcomed our first child, Edward ‘Nolan,’ on Dec. 26 in San Diego."

Kirsten Ekdahl Hull and husband Kevin are the happy parents of a beautiful daughter: Annika Ekdahl Hull, who was born on Sept. 22. The three of them are living in the River West neighborhood of Chicago. Kirsten is working at the same place where she has been since graduation — Joseph Freed and Associates, a mixed-use real estate developer. She is working on the historic redevelopment of the Sullivan Center (formerly Carson Pirie Scott & Co.), in addition to a project in Wicker Park. The Hulls are excited about Annika’s future playdates with many other Kellogg friends and little ones in Chicago area, so let them know if you’re in the area.

Lisa Slouffman and husband Alex Fisher are the proud parents of Charlotte Hazel Fisher, born Nov. 2 in Vancouver.

Livia (Sun) and John Higgins are proud to announce the birth of their first child, Oscar, on Nov. 25. Oscar arrived a month early, just in time for Thanksgiving. Even more surprising than his early arrival was his red hair.

Rhett Dillingham and wife Chris were blessed with the birth of daughter Kaitlyn Dillingham on Jan. 29 in Kirkland, Wash. At the baby shower, Kellogg attendees included Lax Madapaty, Phil Hathaway, Kelly Donahoe and Frederic Pinchon ’07.

Travel and other fun stuff: Haipeng Chen writes: "I finished my first marathon in November at the Outer Banks Marathon in North Carolina. The run was great and the training was hard. I am very happy that I did it."

Masahiko Kambe writes: "Jorge Robert visited Japan on his business trip. We went bar hopping in Yokohama and enjoyed local foods. Masa, Kats, and Mas also welcomed Mahendra Nerurkar in Tokyo. We were very amazed to know that Mahendra enjoyed Japanese-style curry and rice!"
