Ian – “I see a spider!”
Mommy – “We should get it and take it outside. Where is it, I don’t see it.”
Ian – “Right there.”
Mommy – “I just see some dirt.”
Ian – “That dirt’s movin’.”
I went into daycare to pick Ian up just a few days ago, and Ian had built something out of lego-like blocks. He and I always make complex things together when we play with this kind of thing at home, so seeing what he built I sort of shrugged it off…
Caregiver – “You know he’s always doing that.”
Daddy – “Doing what?”
Ian asks me to help him put another wheel on something that isn’t quite fitting.
Caregiver – “The other kids build towers. Ian builds things that actually look like things: He builds cars that look like cars. Planes that look like planes. No other kid in class does that.”
Same day:
Daddy – (looking at sheet of information for his day at daycare) “Oh kiddo, did you use the potty today!?!”
Ian – “I went pee for Ms. Sarah!”
(I’m not sure why I found this hilarious… that it was almost like a limited-engagement performance. But yeah I really gave him some praise for that.)
EDIT – April 1st phone call – “Hello Daddy? Are there two blue blankets at home? They aren’t here.”
More pics soon. Sorry about the lack of entries lately. Work is killing me.

A co-worker of not too long ago that became a great friend of mine sent us this lovely outfit, and it is very Easter appropriate! (Thanks Jackie!) See this image larger.
Ah the one that got away… this one upsets me so much I might just have to stop taking pictures with my phone. Perfect smile, completely out of focus. Thanks, Apple! See this image larger.
All of the above shots were taken on April first… this shot was taken on March 29th. Little Miss Pinch-able Cheeks. See this image larger.
I can’t blame Apple for this one, the light was so low here that I don’t think any camera without a tripod could have pulled this off… just had to make do the best I could — she looked so angelic. See this image larger.
So yeah, those of you thinking these look like junk, don’t worry, this isn’t going to become my go-to camera, I’m just screwing around. I might take a picture or two with it again, but I notice it looks best with non-portraiture.
Melissa, Nina and Ian are in Ohio for Easter. I’m by my lonesome, but am making good progress with the time I’ve got. Looks like I also get to “show the house” on Saturday. Hurray?
I spent last evening loading up my computer with iPad apps so that when my iPad arrives tomorrow it will be ready to go. I can’t believe the cool stuff that’s out there for this thing already!
He doesn’t look like me in this shot, but what’s funny is how much it still feels like a picture from my youth, just because of the effects. See this image larger.
If I haven’t said it before, I love the shape of Ian’s noggin… the angles and the swoops. See this image larger.
*… and some say, you can still hear the coyotes late at night* (aroooooo!) *what was that?!?* See this image larger.
We spent about 15 minutes throwing that towel back and forth. I’d throw it up to the chair over my shoulder, he’d throw it back down on my shoulder, without much of a word. See this image larger.
