Noah Update
Last week, Noah opened the childproofed cabinets in the kitchen.  It was no fluke - he closed it after the first time, and then deliberately repeated his action.  So we have disabled those and instructed him not to open those cabinets (he is obeying so far.)  These are the... (More)

House Search
As some of you know, we have been looking for a house for the last couple of months, and we think we have found one!  I asked a couple guys from church to come look at it today, and give their thoughts, and they generally approved.  Someday, I'll probably make the kitchen nicer (ie.... (More)

Noah Will Be A Big Brother!
Last week (actually within the span of three days) four people asked me if I am pregnant.  Really, you ask?  Yes, really, they did.  One of them was Jonathan, whom you have read has been praying fervently for a little sister, and has not yet learned that you don't ask women that... (More)

Falling in a Lake, 18 (19 really) Month Appointment
On Sunday after church, we were driving around the area and went to the lake we visited in the summer.  It was frozen over, people were ice fishing.  We walked on carefully, telling Jonathan to stay near us and of the dangers of weak ice.  We found an abandonded, yet fresh, ice... (More)

One For All Universal Remote
One of my customers gave me an Amazon gift certificate for Christmas, and so I bought a geeky toy for myself ( One for All URC 8910 Universal Remote Control ), and a book for Heather and I ( Teach Them Diligently: How To Use The Scriptures In Child Trainin g). I haven't opened the... (More)

Christmas/Vacation/Home Again
Can I condense three weeks of activities into one post?  We'll see how it turns out.  One thing we discovered at Christmastime is that Noah loves cocktail sauce.  He just dipped his finger in and licked it off, licked the bowl clean and wanted more! We had Christmas at... (More)

VPNC / Resolvconf / Set search string
I found what I would call a bug in resolvconf today, though probably most people don't run a VPN server like I wanted to, so no one ever noticed before. The internal DNS server at one of my clients somehow loses its connection to folks connected via the VPN.  That is an unsolved... (More)

Random Stuff
Just when I thought I was a geek, the bar is raised... I forgot to post this a while ago: Tim Hawkins and the "homeschool family".  Prairie Home Sausage is kind of funny - and has a picture of a really neat merry-go-round.   Lastly, being... (More)

Christmas Present from Verizon
For some reason, Verizon thought it would be a good idea to reconfigure their network early morning Christmas Eve (or late the night before, I am not sure which).  Unfortunately, they transferred me to a broken gateway, which has 3 minutes outages every fifteen minutes or so.... (More)

Jonathan In A Day
Yesterday, Jonathan did and said several things of note.  He counted to 100 all by himself!  (He still has to think really hard and is not consistent yet, but he did it once.) He asked how to spell "tub" and "bath" and then said,... (More)

Spelling, Counting, Play and More
11/28 - Sanda has been teaching us Romanian, and one day Jonathan was asking what various random words were.  We thought he said, "walk" and Sanda hesitated because it's a verb, so when she asked him to clarify (I walk, you walk, she walks?) he said, "No! Not 'walk' with a... (More)

Do Not Call Lists
We have been getting more and more sales calls lately.  I try to take the time to report them to the do not call lists, both for our state and for the country.  We are supposed to get $100 for each violation (where the caller pays $1000).  But, I haven't ever gotten any money.... (More)

Normally, when we have an update to a post, we just put it in the comments, but since I've entered us in the 30-Day Challenge , here's a separate post to link up. Now before any other "challengees" faint when they see my pictures, I'll remind you that we have guests coming... (More)

Miscellany
Jonathan loves to create meals and side dishes.  On 10/2, he made a vegetable salad that we have recreated several times.  Carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, onions, with one lemon's worth of juice as a dressing.  Simple and delicious. 10/12 - I was in the basement... (More)
