I went on a fairly long walk tonight (take a look at the topological map too, there were some decent hills) - I am in Seattle with one of my customers who is having their annual retreat, and invited me to come along. We are staying at the Palisades Retreat Center , which is a lovely place to... (More)

One is Jonathan at 9 months, one is Noah at (almost) 11 months.  Can you tell who is who?  There is at least one environmental clue in the pictures themselves, but don't look at the links until you've made your guess.   (More)

Not to be outdone by his brother , Jonathan has some interesting things for a blog post today, too.    Recently, he's been enjoying cutting out paper shapes that he draws or that I draw for him.  This morning he asked me to draw the picture from the first page of Curious... (More)

Last month, I took Jonathan for his first dental checkup and cleaning.  He did a great job, asking lots of questions and generally having a good time.  But they did discover two huge fillings.  The regular dentist doesn't do fillings for kids, so she had us make an appointment... (More)

24 pounds, 9 ounces.  30 inches tall. He didn't cry a single whimper for his shot or any of the blood drawing for his hemoglobin and lead tests.  What a brave, tough guy!   He's added water (flicking his ear with his fingers - an unfortunate way to say it, but... (More)

We got our gas bill for February - the highest we have gotten in a long time.  Apparently, the average temperature was eleven degrees colder than last year, causing us to use two and a half time more gas than we did last February. We did leave our heat on more last month than usual, but... (More)

Today, Noah is 8 months old!  Yesterday, he played peekaboo with me by pulling the fabric of the sling in front of his face.  When I said, "Where's Noah?" he would pull it away with a big ol' grin and I would say "peekaboo!"   This week he has learned... (More)

Yesterday, I mailed the payoff check for our mortgage.  This is very exciting for us.  To be completely debt free (even of 'good' debt) and really truly own our house.  Sure, it helps to have a house that didn't cost very much to start with.  But we have been... (More)

One afternoon we were shredding carrots in the food processor for a salad.  Noah was getting upset, so Jonathan said to me, "You go ahead and give Noah milk; I'll finish the carrots."   Noah has been wanting to eat more and has had lots of practice feeding bits of things... (More)

It has been a long time since the last time Jonathan and I went out on a trip together, and Heather suggested that I take the kids to give her some time to clean and other things by herself. First, we glued all of the dining room chairs, since they have been falling apart more than usual... (More)

I was at a small conference last weekend, which I suppose deserves another post entirely, but in summary, God used that conference to stir up and provoke me to love and seek him more. At the conference, one of the speakers (Rick Walth) talked about his experiences over the last couple years... (More)

Noah's height chart is doing the same straight-line projection that Jonathan's weight chart did. 28" tall, 18lb 11oz. I never pay much attention to the head circumference number, but that chart was also straight-line. The last two times, the nurse has double-checked that measurement, but... (More)

Noah was having a hard time this early morning and he reached for my fingers to chew on them. Then I felt it! Tooth ridges on the bottom right! He's been drooling and chewing a lot, but I really didn't think anything of it, because Jonathan chomped on stuff for a couple months before the... (More)

Since he was 6 months old, Jonathan has gotten a haircut about every three months. We just take the largest guard on the electric razor and buzz it the same length all the way around. His previous haircut was just after Noah was born, so it was time. Plus, Auntie E's wedding is next week! But... (More)
