"Driving" and Geography

We went to the Kuhns' for dinner Thursday evening and at one point Will wanted to go out and ride his bike. Previously, he and Jonathan had been playing with playdough. I asked Jonathan to wash his hands (it was homemade dough and goopy) while I washed the cookie cutters and other playdough utensils. When I finished, I went to find him. (More)

Another update and delay

From Vicki:
Judy's trial was preliminarily set to begin on Feb. 27th, but has again been delayed.

Oral arguments on the Pre-Trial Motions and the Habeas Corpus Writ will now be heard on April 5, 2006. The trial will be set some time after that - most likely this Summer.

Judy has asked that those who pray remember her and her family in prayer at this time as they are struggling with several battles they are facing. The Bible says "Be still and know that I am God", but the "be still" part is not always easy. Please pray that they will be encouraged in their daily walk, because that's where the battle and the moments of frustration come in.

Thank you so much for your support and continued prayers.

22 Weeks

Had another prenatal appointment this morning. Blood pressure great; measuring a little big, but still within normal. I have felt like all of a sudden the last week or so, my belly has "popped out." Baby was moving so much it took a while to locate the heartbeat, but it was definitely there. He is head down already! Good job, little one.

Using Alternative Shells in Windows

For my company's next product, we are thinking about replacing the normal explorer shell with our own, but we want to be able to access the explorer.exe for debugging, etc. It turns out that when you start explorer, it checks to see if it is listed as a shell, and if it is, and this is the first instantiation of the explorer process, it loads up the desktop/start menu/etc. If the answer is no to either of those cases, it just loads the "regular" file manager view.

Memory and Imitation

One reason Jonathan talks so well is because we talk to him like a real person. Children learn by hearing and by imitating. It is sometimes amusing to hear the things that he says. For example, he got a valentine's day card from Aunt Ellie, and as he saw the stickers on the back and was opening it, he said, "That's so sweet!" (More)

The End of the Fish Saga

It has been many moons since a fish update. The last blog entry about it was October 2004, but there might be a newsletter that has a more recent update. If not this poor catfish of ours was lonely for a longer time than I thought. (More)

Recently, Jonathan has liked to sit in his little chair with his guitar, strumming and singing, "I love Mommy. She is beautiful. I love Mommy." Now there's a sweet Valentine! (More)

Daddy Felt the Baby!

We've been trying for a couple of weeks with no success. Then this morning, he gave Jon a nice big kick he could feel, hooray! This is 21 weeks.

Halfway Already

20 weeks, half way. Baby is moving a lot, but still not yet felt by the outside world. I borrowed a home blood pressure monitor and that has been nice. It's on the low side, but within normal range, so I am happy.
