Yeap, we’re still moving forward here. Kiddo is doing as well as could be expected (KNOCKING ON WOOD) for a week old. Still getting decent chunks of sleep so far, and he has done a better job figuring out how to latch on to feed. Dirtying diapers like a champ for sure. Still pretty fussy…

Baby Garrett decided to join us on Texas Independence Day at 3:57pm! He’s fiesty!

Thanks Wendi! She very nicely reminded me that my car is such a minor issue in my life right now compared to the stuff I have going on. I’ll work up from least significant to most Got my taxes prepared this morning, and its not going to be as bad as I thought. That’s a…

OK! Just picked up the Tahoe and it is running like it was before my lovely transmission incident. GM did in fact stand behind their product (1/2 way anyway) and split the repair cost with me. I had Huffines do a couple of other minor maintenance items to the car while they had it and…

I just called Huffines and talked to Betty up in service. After dropping the transmission they said the reaction shell had failed. So in order to replace all of this, the total cost is close to $1,100. Not nearly the price of a new transmission! I’m slightly pleased with this news. Included in the price…

This is the 3rd GM car I have personally owned, though we have had many GM cars throughout both of our lives (Chris and mine), and my parents used to be exclusive GM customers. I’m driving to pick up dinner and at 62K miles, my ’02 Chevy Tahoe transmission decides it will destroy itself. What…

Yeh, James updates his blog, but has he blogged? Not so much. Though he did have a quick bout of food poisoning, so maybe that’s part of it. Who knows. I’ll be chilling with him on Thursday in Austin. Luckily enough, my hotel is on 6th Street. Go figure. We FINALLY got the rest of…

I have 4! Who wants one? Email me.

Yes, I know there is good bacteria, but the bad stuff just sucks. Somehow it got into my head and its all stuffed up and green. Gross… Well SuperBowl was fun. Got the new grill all fired up and I am sure we drained about half of the keg. Also got the new stroller together.…

Sorry I have not written in a while, been busy with work, new kid stuff, etc. This week I went up to St. Paul for our regional Holiday party which was quite a bit of fun. Sandy hooked us up with massages and manicures at Mell’s Beauty Bar in downtown Minneapolis. Woh, wait a tick,…

Well, we completed our last childbirth class last night. Now its practice time! We’ve been told that practicing at least 2 good contractions per night will help her become a natural. I just keep thinking Bill Cosby’s stand-up routine… So we get back and I decide that I should finish working on a problem that…

Wow… What a disappointing finish to the NFL season. It would have been great to see the Eagles get pounded back yet again and to see Vick accelerate to the big game. Oh well, looks like Ms. McNabb will have to be feeding those Eagles lots-o-chunky soup. As much as I really don’t want to…

Sorry…. Been busy. I was out all last week in San Francisco for a company outing. Why do those damn Californian’s have to put pine nuts in everything? Sheesh. Anyway… We made some serious progress this weekend on house related items. I got all of my year-end recordkeeping done and cleaned up my office. Pretty…

Fun stuff…. Re-recording lectures takes FOREVER. I’ve noticed when I get tired, I make many more mistakes in my audio. Takes forever to edit.

I walked outside today and just about froze my nads off. Holy Crap! At least there was not any snow on the ground, and the only ice was fairly easy to get around. Not quite the picture that was painted by a couple of local news agencies. So after about 10 minutes of warming the…

Well, we had another successful run of parties. We are just arriving back home from Lee & Mary’s after enjoying a great new years party at my parents house. I’m exhausted, so is Chris. We’re going to spend tomorrow recovering and preparing for the week ahead. Child birth classes are starting on Tuesday. Whee!

Hey folks! Merry Christmas to all! I hope everyone is blessed this season.

Good gracious, its freaking cold out there Mr. Bigglesworth! We’ve accumulated about 2.5″ of snow so far, though most of it melts right away if you step in it. My car was pretty frozen when I went out there to make a quick FedEx run. Didn’t really want to start either. It started after about…
