Bump Keys

I heard about bump keys recently, and had a little time to play around this morning. I read an article about them, and watched a youtube video , and away I went. It took about 15 minutes to hand-file a key. And then another 20 minutes to try the "pull-back"... (More)

Food, Babbling, Moving, Looking

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)

More Quotes, More Jumping, Drawing

Well, so far he hasn't forgotten things from before he was three. Just out of the blue the other day, Jonathan was talking about the Maggie P and said, "That burning up fire toilet is pretty cool." Speaking of being three, he will occasionally ask me, "Mommy, am I... (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)

Not Forgotten

Just because we were too busy to post does not mean we did not think about Isaac this Thanksgiving. Tuesday the 21st was his 4th birthday. At women's Bible study we sang a song about the people of God, the Church, Christ's body - and one phrase reminded me of the support in... (More)

There is a lot of traffic, probably an accident ahead, so we decided to stop for a while, so it probably won't all that much difference. We borrowed a cell phone and bluetooth adapter from work, so I have internet here. I was hoping to find a traffic advisory to tell us how far away... (More)
