On Thursday the 12th of June, Aunt Melanie, Cousins Connor and Kaylee arrived in Rockford. Dinner was had, video games were played, however, no pictures were taken. The rest of the visit, on the other hand, was captured in stunning detail. (You can tell I’m not lying because it says “Part I” up there in […]
Tuesday Gm Sue left Michigan and it was also Ian’s first day at his new daycare. Over the course of the last few days since then we’ve learned more and more about this place in which Ian will be spending a good deal of his time. How does it compare with the old place? Let’s […]
We all had a blast with Grandma Sue in town, and we had a few more days together since last entry. She flew home, had some tests and a successful surgery since then; so perhaps the title of the blog entry is a little late. At any rate, we’re just happy to hear Gm Sue […]
Grandma Sue didn’t get too much luck in the way of her flight to Grand Rapids; delays, mechanical breakdowns, inclement weather. Well, three’s a magic number according to those old Schoolhouse Rock videos from Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid… and this is the third grandparent-ly visit. Her luck started turning around after […]
EDIT – Ok, here’s the link to the video! This one’s not too big. The usual warnings apply about how the video works and stuff. Click here to enjoy the video! I can’t say I’m all that happy with this particular video… since this was taped he’s much better at annunciating the “h” in “hi.” […]
Uncle Chris is finally on Xbox LIVE with a broadband connection. I got to play poker with him last night and chat and catch up on his life. Really cool to be connected that way. The first pic I tried to send him with my camera failed, but I took a picture of the picture […]
There’s a bunch of fancy plastic wagons you can get these days, spending one’s money on cup-holders and special compartments and whatnot. This one wasn’t cheap, but it is metal, with big soft rubber tires. Dada put it together, time to take it for a spin! “Well heck, this isn’t any fun.” See this image […]
Apparently a helicopter just crashed into a hospital. Melissa was there doing some work for a client. She wrote me about it from the office, so I know she’s safe. Apparently the helicopter crew was doing a training exercise and it didn’t go so hot. Melissa was in an underground level at the time. Two […]
So here’s some of the aforementioned pictures of Ian’s owwie, below, after some other updates. • Ian says “Mickey!” sometimes for Mickey Mouse. • Ian and I tried to sneak into Melissa and I’s bedroom while she slept, so I could turn off the monitor, but again “HI!!!!!” was Ian’s idea of a quiet morning […]
I’ll probably post a pic or two of the “bonk” later tonight… • Yesterday Ian said both “pocoyo” and “elly” roughly. These are characters from the tv show Pocoyo… funny to hear him trying to say everything, and really this is a great time to remind all of the family members that he’s a pretty […]
