Bad Behavior has blocked 1090 access attempts in the last 7 days.

I've just started reading a book I ordered from the library. I don't remember who recommended it - probably either someone at Jubilee, or else a blog I read. Based on the number of things I've liked so far, and I'm only through the introduction, I suspect I'm going to really like this... (More)

Notes and a Taste of Spring

2/23 - Faith repeated the Church of the Ascension doorbell, singing exactly on pitch. 2/24 - Noah was working with Jon on pronouncing "sure" correctly, having trouble with the "sh" sound at the beginning. Finally, he said to Jon, "How 'bout I just say... (More)

It's All Relative

I was telling my mom the other day about how strange it was that Pittsburgh is all but closed down after the snowstorm on Saturday. Even the major roads (5th, Forbes, Negley, Penn) are not plowed, or rather, seem to have been plowed after one foot of snow fell, but then they didn't come... (More)

New Pictures

We've added our pictures for the last couple months , as well as adding a bunch of pictures that Stephan took at the Maggie P and at Thanksgiving - the delay was mostly because I hadn't gotten around to figuring out how to add a credit in the bottom right corner for Stephan's pictures. And... (More)

Cost of Health Care?

Since I am in the category of people who is expected to see my health insurance double or triple, I wonder why people are spending so much on their health insurance. I do see that since we are "poor", we'll likely get free or heavily discounted health insurance under Obama's... (More)

Product Review: Wood Stove: 13-NCI

I mentioned our new wood stove previously, and asked some of you for recommendations, but never got around to writing about it here. We've had it for a couple months, and it has been great! We ended up buying an Englander 13-NCI . I don't remember what the 13 stands for, but 12 is... (More)

Checkups

I'll start with most recent and then go to my pocket notes. Jonathan and Faith both had well child checkups yesterday. As much as it seems like it would be easier to have two checkups together, it really isn't. I'll go back to scheduling them separately. It wasn't too... (More)

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November

We began the day learning about Guy Fawkes Day (Jonathan says now if we ever visit England he wants to visit at the beginning of November so he can participate in the festivities.) We ended the day by taking Daddy to the ER. Jon's notes in italics . It was quarter of five... (More)

I Love Word Problems

I was searching for Noah's first word on our blog (I found his first signed word: please, but I couldn't find his first spoken word) because Faith has started talking a little, and I don't know exactly what her first word is, probably "hi". But, today, she has repeatedly said,... (More)

Lots of Pocket Notes

Jonathan has created a new superhero. Actually, a team of superheroes. They are the SuperFire team, made up of as many different colors as you would like. Super Orange Fire is the captain (that's usually Jonathan.) Noah is often Super Blue Fire, or Super Green... (More)

Noah 3, Faith 1, Pocket Notes, No Boys In Diapers

Noah's three year appointment was at the beginning of the month. He is 42.5 lbs and 41" tall. They did the hearing and vision tests and the nurse was very impressed. She said usually at this age, they can hear the sounds but not figure out which ear they're hearing it... (More)

Lots Happening

7/5 - (oh, yes, this means I have not posted in at least a month...) Faith crawled upstairs all by herself (with Mom behind her all the way.) Noah says he can do it "all mine by self." Jonathan: "The person I love most after God is Faith." Noah... (More)

Chinese Perspective on Obama's Election

I keep forgetting to post this. A friend who currently lives in China wrote: It has been interesting to hear some of my former students express excitement and intrigue about the presidency of Barack Obama. The reason it has captured their attention is because it proves to them... (More)

Dishwasher! and more

Liberal or Conservative?

I guess I fail the test , since I answered "no" to both questions, though I suppose Brad Andresen from college (the one who always said of me, "You're more liberal than you think you are.") would be happy to hear that I'd be more likely to think it alright to slap my dad... (More)
