Noah, as mentioned in Jon's saturday post, has been grabbing for my food, and I have started giving him tiny squashed samples. This is one of the great differences between him and his big brother, who did not care very much for solid food until at least a year. Yet it's not... (More)

Saturday Adventure

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)

Long Commute

Tonight, due to the Steeler's game, the first snowfall, and regular silly commuters, my trip home took an hour and 15 minutes, resulting in an average speed of 3.5 miles an hour. The last mile and a half took 45 minutes. I even saved a half an hour by calling Heather when I got close to... (More)

Pursuing Christ

A blog I have recently started reading, Following Judah's Lion , had this to say today: "What person takes one spoonful of the greatest ice cream they’ve ever tasted and puts the spoon down never to taste it again? And what sinner has tasted of the glorious grace of God... (More)

3rd Tooth

The first part of the upper left incisor poked through yesterday, with much fussing, drool (can you say fountain?), and even a little blood. Note to Mommy: even if you know he's teething, check the diaper anyway. (More)

Several Jonathan Stories

I have accumulated some random stuff about Jonathan for quite a while. Here thay are finally written down. After being stuck on 11 for quite some time, Jonathan now can count to 29, only skipping a few. This is what he said when describing how many people he wanted to come to... (More)

Jonathan Is Three!

Jonathan woke up late on his birthday morning and discovered a bouquet of Happy Birthday balloons tied to the foot of his bed. He had a good long drink of mommy milk and then discovered his birthday crown on the sewing table which he put on after dressing in his "wedding clothes."... (More)

Who Says Spammers Write Junky Software?

I found this article at Ed Bott's blog , where it shows some screenshots from a spam control client-server piece of software. It looks pretty neat -- if you're into that sort of thing. One interesting thing to note is that almost half of the systems under the spammers control are... (More)

How Important is Doctrine Anyway?

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)

50 Days of Heaven - Days 6 and 7

On these two days, Mr. Alcorn has strayed away from at least what I know as traditional views of Heaven, though granted, I am not a particularly studied scholar on the matter. I haven't ever heard of an intermediate Heaven, which is different from the future Heaven. His definition... (More)

50 Days of Heaven - Day 4

I sort of got discouraged on days 2 and 3, where I didn't find much that was edifying. But day 4 had a couple interesting things.One was a question I have about "Eden has been trampled, torched, and savaged." I have thought Eden was doing okay. I guess maybe if the whole... (More)

A Hunger For God

I guess I will need to read the book - I have not liked a fair amount of what John Piper has to say (which is unfortunate, since my church loves everything he says). But I happened across Slice of Laodicea and read the following quote today, which is exactly how I have been thinking recently:... (More)

Offended Appliance

Somehow the appliance spies informed our dryer that we were at Sears looking at a new dryer. Heather wanted to get a new one, since this one doesn't have a low heat setting - but the dryer has worked fine for years. The next time we used our dryer, it refused to start a couple times,... (More)

"CR" Sound, Math Rhymes

Jonathan was rolling out fondant and playing with cookie cutters and talking to himself about them when I heard him say, "cross" correctly! He also said, "green" correctly so I asked him to say "Grammy" and he did! They do sound slightly like... (More)

Hey wait, is that Volus?

It doesn't quite look like him, but you certainly could imagine it being him. (Maybe even me? -- nah, I'm probably too old or something) (More)
