May Catch-Up, Part II

Today I took Melissa to the airport, and with a teary good-bye she disappeared into the terminal. Ian had fallen asleep a few miles back, but Melissa got to say so-long while he was groggily making his way toward the land of naps. So currently I believe she’s in the air, heading toward San Francisco. […]

May Catch-Up, Part I

Well, so the last entry was toward the end of April… not much else happened other than one more Dad’s group meeting, and I think I only got a little video on that one, and unfortunately, the one after that was even less of a photo/video opportunity, as Ian soaked himself with water and I […]

Twinkle, Twinkle

Just tonight we received notice that on July 6th our little baby boy will be upgraded to the “Early Preschool” room at daycare. I’ve never felt so old and proud at the same time! On Friday, April 24th 2009, Ian stepped outside into warm spring air for some much needed dirt time. Here you’ll see […]

Dad’s Group Wee Play

The next Monday, April 20th 2009, Ian and I went to a little place called Wee Play. And play he did. See this image larger. And play. See this image larger. Play. See this image larger. Play. See this image larger. Play. See this image larger. Rest. See this image larger.

Chalk it Up to a Good Time

On the 18th of April Grand Rapids was host to something called the “Chalk Flood.” Apparently there’s a college student mastermind that has come up with a lot of elaborate cool ideas for the city to sort of get together and do. In this one, thousands of people flocked to the city streets to find […]

Just Golfing Around

Some additional pics from the middle of April… This shot is from April 14th — it turns out that if you put the camera on one of our counters and set the timer we can get a nice family shot of us on the steps… might have to do this more often! See this image […]

Playworld, Part II

Here is the second part of the trip to Playworld, this one’s really great if you want to see what happens when Ian combines his understanding of the fun of jumping around with the dexterity to bounce. Click here to watch the video, it weighs in at 7.3MB, which is huge, I know… but I […]

Playworld, Part I

Well, here we go again, I’ve got a lot of catching up to do… First, this breaking news: On Tuesday, Cinqo de Mayo, Ian successfully sang the alphabet from start to finish, soup to nuts, A to Z… every single letter identifiable as the real deal. We’re so proud! I’m going to try to do […]

Best of Easter Video

Ok so this is a HUGE video… it weighs in at 11 MB… so if you have a slow connection you’re going to want to avoid this. This is the best parts of the Easter video that was shot over our Easter visits. The good news about the size is that I made a very […]

Grampa Dave and Grandma Marcia Play Easter Bunny, Part II

This is a shot I ended up turning red accidentally… I’ve sort of tried to correct it because I still like the shot. See this image larger. A brief pause for some happy grins! See this image larger. And then… two great loves that came together in one awesomeness, a train and a cake! This […]
