He’s here! Theo David Spielman arrived this morning at 7:49 weighing 7 lbs 1 oz and measuring 20.5 in long. We’re so in love and can’t wait for Carter to meet his little bro 💙
Caught on camera - Cranston FF Greg Carcieri stops his truck to pick up an American flag, knocked down by today’s breezy weather and respectfully folds it. Homeowner Anthony Colella shared the Ring video on FB, thanking Carcieri for his patriotic gesture

The sun finally came out for a quick trip to Narragansett last night and a rare family pic when everyone was actually looking at the camera. Score.
Hope you all had a happy 4th!

I’m proud of the peaceful protesters. I’m proud of police for protecting the city while showing restraint.
And I’m so incredibly proud of our reporters & photogs covering every moment, angle & development w/ such professionalism. That’s what journalism is all about.
@wpri12
Thankful for commercial breaks these days so I can gather myself. Between the heartbreaking stories and the heartwarming ones, it’s emotional in here. Just a reminder that we’re not robots. This all affects us too.

I still remember my first day on the air ⬇️like it was yesterday.
Blessed to do what I love each and every day in this beautiful state ⚓️
Just treated so terribly by a doctor's office that I'm in tears.
Well aware of COVID burnout and the stresses of the pandemic on healthcare workers, but patients are PEOPLE.
How many others have fallen through the cracks?
Thanks to Jess for sending this video to

of a porpoise playing in the waves off Narragansett town beach.
The fin initially caused a scare at the beach this morning, prompting beach officials to clear the water while they investigated.
How great is this?! Over 30 Warwick firefighters, most off duty, showed up to help move the St. Kevin school/supplies yesterday so the kids can start back on Wednesday at the Randall Holden building. They’re own school is being cleaned up from a major water main break.
11 years ago today I officially got promoted from behind the assignment desk - to in front of the camera. Thank you to

"How can you possibly let these folks dress you in so many near-unflattering ways. Recently there was an improvement but it’s not long lasting. I would (personally) reject much of what they put on you."
Fun fact: I dress myself. There are no "folks."

When you bring your 16-month-old on a promo shoot...you're bound to have some outtakes... (stay tuned for the Toys for Tots commercial spot! Carter did finally cooperate in the end🙄)
It’s not easy to explain
