Bad Behavior has blocked 411 access attempts in the last 7 days.

Yes, we have a new house! The closing was a little hectic because the seller left a van in the driveway and we had to work out an escrow agreement for them to get rid of it (which still had not been done by last night.) Right after closing, we headed up to do work. We have had... (More)

Water testing

This started out as a reply to an email to Heather's parents, but I figured maybe other people are interested in the thought process about water quality. After lots of hours looking at water things today, I think we will definitely get a " MetalMaster " which gets rid of... (More)

Condensed Recent Happenings

Vacation was fun, see the pictures: Connecticut , New Hampshire . 7/26 - A little boy, older than Noah and younger than Jonathan, asked Noah his name. When Noah did not say anything, the boy kept repeating, "What's your name?" Eventually, Noah walked over to the table and got his... (More)

On the Road Again...

I guess it can't much be counted as "again", since we have only moved once since we have been married, but the song popped into my head as I started to write the title of this post. Since some of you probably don't read every comment on our blog, you might have missed the announcement... (More)

32 Weeks

We went to our 32 week appointment today and the office was much busier than when we've come before. The baby moved vigorously during the exam and the midwife had a hard time hearing his heartbeat. The first time, he obviously moved away from where she had the fetoscope; on the next try, I... (More)

SSH Login Attempts

I think I have written before about DenyHosts , but this evening, it prevented somewhere around twenty thousand individual hosts trying to login to one of my servers. The hackers have gotten smarter - that they used to just try from one host, which was trivially blockable, even manually.... (More)

Fourth Time's the Charm?

I had delayed posting this since I think people were getting tired of hearing about each house that we put an offer on. But, now that this offer has been accepted, and I don't expect too much trouble with the inspections, I figure it is safe enough to post.I said to a friend the other day,... (More)

Birthday Celebrations

After breakfast on Noah's birthday, we went to the dollar store to buy him some balloons. Jonathan thought Noah shouldn't come, because it would spoil the surprise, but I said that since Noah likes to go on walks, he'd have a happier birthday if he came with us. And what's another 10... (More)

Happy Birthday, Noah!

Today, Noah is two years old! He is a blessing to our family, and I look forward to watching and helping him grow more and more. Since the second birthday is not much more interesting to the recipient than the first, we'll be having a simple family celebration with balloons and cake. I'm... (More)

Someday I'll Just Stay Home and Eat Bonbons

On Wednesday, we walked to the Shursave for a regular shopping trip. The only difference in this trip was the lack of milk in the bottom of the cart, since I had just gotten some at Trader Joe's. But it made a big difference for Jonathan! He pulled the cart the whole way home by himself,... (More)

Jonathan's Shopping Trip

Life cereal was on sale for $2, and we found a $1 off coupon inside one box. So tonight, Jonathan bought a box of cereal with his own dollar bill. We all walked to the store together. Jonathan found the cereal aisle by himself and saw where the cereal was, but had Daddy reach up to... (More)

Beginning Potty Training

I won't make this too detailed since Jon especially doesn't like this kind of stuff posted for everyone to read (and well, would you want your business customers - or worse, potential customers - reading about what your children are doing on the toilet?) But I just wanted it on the... (More)

First Employee/Contractor!

I had turned down some work the other day, and as I thought about it more, realized that I was ready to hire someone to work for me. I talked to a dad at church, and he thought it was a good idea, and his son was interested as well. It turns out that he has less programming... (More)

New Link / Google Shared Stuff

I added a new link on the sidebar, and wanted folks to see it. If you use gmail's reader, and are a "friend" of mine (defined by using gtalk/chat/email with me), it will show up in your reader automatically. For the rest of you, (which is most of you, since I don't use... (More)

ReleaseForge for SourceForge

I found a link to this application a while ago, but never took the time to check it out. Fortunately, it stuck in the back of my mind that there was a handy application, although even handier that I had saved my bookmarks from an old computer, because I couldn't remember the name, and I... (More)
