Serina wrote a post on raw milk that I started to comment on, when I decided it deserved a whole post on my own blog. I thought the person quoted in the raw milk article made a good point about lettuce, etc. making people sick. Think of the recent spinach/e.coli thing. Are states now... (More)

Scissors, Soot-su

Jonathan has been using scissors for a long time, but I just wanted to write down how cute he is when he cuts things. His mouth opens and closes exactly with each motion of the scissors. Soot-su is the main character in his imaginary world, and now she has been joined by Peddy-Deddy, Ron-ron,... (More)

Noah's Progress

I just noticed that Jonathan has 203 posts, Isaac has 60, and Noah only has 14, so I will take this opportunity to write about our left-behind third child. He seems to like trying to catch my eye while I am working at my laptop, and we are sitting on the couch together. I will notice that he... (More)

Tandem Nursing

This post has been in my head since shortly after Noah was born, but taking the time to write it has not been on my priority list until now. Before I begin, I would like to say that my purpose in writing is simply an explanation of what we're doing and why I think it's great, and an... (More)

Reaching and Grabbing

Noah likes to sit in his bouncy seat while I take showers. It has some hanging toys on it which he has now started grabbing for. This morning he succeeded in getting a good enough hold on one to try to bring it to his mouth. Unfortunately, it was not long enough to reach, but he tried several... (More)

Fun Weekend (long overdue)

Last weekend, Heather was sick with mastitis, which meant she just wanted to lie in bed all day with flu-like symptoms. It actually started on Friday morning, and she did get progressively better throughout the day, but still decided to stay home from care group that night. I was planning on... (More)

Merry Christmas!

I have seen the Christmas stuff come out right after Thanksgiving, and last year I saw some stuff just after Halloween, but this year has them all beat. (More)

Vacation Catch-up

Ah, it has been nearly a month since I posted anything. So here's a quick rundown. The boys and I went on vacation without Daddy. We drove to Philly, taking 7 hours, stopping every hour, once on the side of the road, once at a rest stop and three times at exits. If ever you need to stop on... (More)

Old Cell Phone...

I tried to re-activate our prepaid phone, but Cingular no longer supports TDMA phones, which is an older standard, but I hadn't realized that GSM had taken over that much. Our cell phone that we use regularly is also TDMA, but the sales guy said that it should last a while, as long as we don't... (More)

Bike Trip: Pittsburgh to Cheswick

And another trip for this week, out to the Kuhns.(need to update these directions after the trip. This one is more of an experiment, trying to stay off of Allegheny River Blvd, Freeport Road and 28 at rush hour) Estimated distance: 15 miles. Start at St. Mary's Cemetary at the entrance on...

Bike Trip: Pittsburgh to Moon

I am planning on a couple bike trips in the next couple days, and figured I would write them down, one, in case I ever want to do them again, I will be able to find the route easier, and two, perhaps others will follow in my tire tracks.Based on John Ockerbloom's directions, though I want...

David Bailey

I was listening to "One More Day" and thought I would write a bit about him and his songs. I first heard David when he came to CMU, I think in 1996, shortly after being given a couple months to live by his doctor due a large tumor. The only song I remember from his first visit to Carnegie... (More)

6 Weeks

Noah had an appointment at six weeks, kind of both his one month and two month appointments, because of scheduling. He is 13 lb, 13 oz, 23.5 in. Not as fast to gain as Jonathan, but still good and healthy. My suspicion is that he won't be as fat as Jonathan was since Jonathan is now drinking... (More)

Pronunciation and More

Jonathan has gradually corrected his mispronunciation of words as he gets older. The two remaining sounds he has trouble with are hard "G" and "C/K." Around last week, he said "car" correctly. When he thinks about it, he can do it, and he likes to over-emphasise the ccckkk. He still says... (More)

Johari Window

Bill linked to a new (at least to me) personality profile thingy. I haven't done the Meyers-Briggs test in a while, but I have consistently scored ESFP, and I generally like that assessment. One version of the test had a fairly long paragraph describing ESFP's, and it fit exactly. (I always... (More)
