All Is Well

We had the girls’ well-checks last week and both girls are doing great. Molly is healthy as a little horse - she’s 25 inches “tall” (75th percentile) and 15.5 lbs. (90th percentile). Dr. Guerrero looked up Olivia’s stats at her 4 mo. check up and she was the same height as Molly, but a whole pound [...]

We recently saw a new “Get a Mac” TV commercial that made Jenny and I look at each other and say, huh? It was their “Misprint” ad where ‘PC’ is calling PC World magazine to correct the fact that in a recent article they said that the MacBook Pro was the fastest laptop that they have [...]

First Impressions

A couple of months ago a buddy got his new iMac delieved to work. He let us watch as he unboxed it and booted it for the first time. Apple knows what they are doing when it comes to the initial user experience. It automatically tried to detect the wireless mouse and keyboard and when it [...]

O’ Christmas Tree

In case you haven’t been watching our photo albums closely, I figured I’d embed the video we made of us putting up our Christmas tree this year. Since we are always up in Nebraska for Christmas it doesn’t make much sense to have a live tree so we went ahead and got an artificial one [...]

Poor Quack-Quack

Quack-Quack is one of Livy’s favorite friends (thanks, Aunt Jo). Quack-Quack runs around chasing Red with his flappy rubber feet as Livy giggles uncontrollably. Unfortunatey, he has a hard time staying out of the way. This is the third time that ’someone’ in the house (who has the agility of a clydesdale) has stepped on him [...]

Black Rhino
White Rhino
Indian Rhino
Sumatran Rhino
eBay’s ads say “It’s better when you win it”, but I’m not so sure.
(Update: Since the auctions ended I’ve removed the dead links. You can still read about them here on [...]

Happy Birthday, Olivia Grace!

When Danielle Bean’s daughter Gabrielle turned two, she wrote this tribute. It seemed to fit us pretty well, too!
“Being two means experimenting with bananas, toilet bowls, and your father’s wallet sometimes all at the same time.
Being two means falling down flat on your face but then getting back up again about 327 times a [...]

Holiday Inventory

I know some of you out there have been waiting for the full story on Black Friday this year since I had mentioned before that I was planning to camp out at Best Buy. This year I was shopping for a desktop for Jenny’s Grandma, a desktop for my parents, and a laptop for Jenny’s brother [...]
