A belated update from the DiDullmans
Hello friends and fam,
We come to you from 2026, bearing greetings and good news from 2025.1
Last year was a big year in the DiDullman household. DJ finally finished his book2 [emphasis his, pre-order here!], we roadtripped and biked through the Canadian Maritimes (New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia) and celebrated family milestones like Kaz's grandma's 100th3 and her cousin's kiddo's batmitzvah. Like all years, we also had setbacks, but the highs of the good times far outweighed those of the bad.
If you’d like to see some snapshots of our year, we pulled together our favorite images from 2025 and put them on our newly-vibe-coded website: www.DiDUllman.com.
But the biggest news of 2025 actually arrives in 2026: that's right, the moment our parents had long ago stopped inquiring about is finally here. B.U.D. (baby-ullman-didonna) is officially on the slow train to the surface of the planet, ETA 5.22.26.
Kaz is reveling in the chill vibes of the second trimester, having only just recently outgrown every single pair of pants she owns. Sweatpants-that-look-like-jeans: 2026 looks good on you, and you look good on Kaz.
Our goal is to equip the kiddo with as much hand-me-downs from our friends as possible, so please reach out if you've got clothing or gear that you've outgrown.
To celebrate BUD’s arrival, we’ll be doing a small in-person gathering or two. For those further afield, you can help give us advice, stock the baby gear fund, and have a good time with our prediction game for BUD’s arrival on the BET ON BUD portion of our website.4
For those near and far, we’re accepting advice, pre-partum quality adult time, and post-partum meals and hangs, in place of any presents.

1 Please excuse our tardy holiday card -- we're not just cheap, we also figured it would be better to wait and share the news than to just send a funny picture of ourselves. (Now, you have both.)
2 Book launches 7.21.2026, and pre-orders ostensibly support the college fund (see next para).
3 Grandma Nelly passed on January 30, 2026 in Rhode Island, after Kaz got to say goodbye and show her new photos of B.U.D.
4 Katherine really went all out here.
