If only I was two again..

On the road right now..
Our vacation has been a blast, I'll share more later. But in the meantime, check out J riding in his cousin's 'stang:

MN here we come! ..again

While packing last night, the J-ster climbed in and sat down in the suitcase, and then proceded to face the phone and say cheeeeeeese:

I'm pretty sure immediately afterwards I tackled him like a lion over his cub and messed up all of Mom's neatly folded clothes.

We're taking a couple days vacation for a little getaway. Jeremiah is really talking well; trying to repeat most thigs we say. Figured it'd be nice if some of his mn members can witness it too because it's so much fun!

Guess we can always Skype too...

Pebble...

Have you ever been weed-whacking and gotten hit in the face by a pebble or stone, and then wanted to take revenge on it?

That happened to me today.

Old Man Gamer

Do you ever take pictures while out and about? I was at wally's the other day and spotted an elder playing video games.

I can honestly say this is a first for me. You?

Baby?

Why does it bug me when people call Jeremiah a baby? Can babies build towers out of legos as high as the sky? :-)

Does a baby say please when asking for a cookie? Or thank you when you deliver it? Or "poo-poo" after doing their business?
Hahahahaha... I love this kid. He's becoming such a big boy.

Blog Press

Man I am so excited right now (as I drive and author this post from my iPhone) because in the last couple of weeks the very first iPhone app was released that let's me blog with multiple photos...from my phone!

So this is my test post. Here's a pic of the first cucmber we harvested from our garden this year (test width 350):

And here's a pic of a homemade limeade:

And here's a pic of me. I just took this while in the middle of writing this post, on I35 North:

I am moving more and more away from doing things at my computer, like facebook and blogging since this sweet little phone (and sweet little apps) liberates me to do it remotely!

Bing

If you've been following any sort of tech news lately, you probably know that Microsoft is budging back into the game… Google's game. They launched their new, impressive, bing.com which has been the talk of the town amongst Google's rivals. It's a search engine similar to Google.

 

I really like Google, and the things they've invented. They've really created a lot of amazing new technologies that I use all. The. Time.

But I am really excited about Bing too, because now that there is new competition for Google I can only imagine how things will progress even further. Anyways, I'm excited as usual about technology.. And always anticipate learning of the "new" best technology.

 

By the way, what's with these search engine giants always naming their company something weird, and then turning it into a verb? Before long, you will hear people say, "don't ask me, go 'bing' it!"

(thanks Fred, got this from your blog :) )

Picture Blogging

My blog has turned into a picture blog. But that's A-OK with me.

Jeremiah climbs to the top of the pool ladder and then wants to be rescued. I'm sure before the end of the summer he'll be jumping in from the top.

But seriously. Is this not the most model-like pose of him you've seen to date? Click for larger version.

Happy Anniversay Dad and Mom

Just look at the couple. After all these years still happily married going strong!



Happy anniversary Dad and Mom. I love you both more than you'll ever know. You're a wonderful example of love and commitment!

Text messages are from God

There are days when I get caught up in the hustle of work and go completely thoughtless of my family. Happens a lot actually, and that's a good thing; focusing on work while I'm at work.

But there is nothing like taking a mini vacation from it to remember why I am so blessed, to have the wife and son that I do and get a text like this one:

I love my life. =)

Prenatal Appointment #1

Today was the first prenatal appointment for child #2. Sheen had an ultra sound, so we got to see the baby. It is about 2 inches long (I think?), and due December 24th.

The baby wiggled around on screen today, as if to say, "Look at me!"

Here's a shot of the equipment the lady used while we watched baby.


And here's baby on the monitor. The baby is white in the picture laying on his/her back, with the head on the left and legs and tushy on the right.


God is so good that He is entrusting us with this child. He/she is a gift from God... needless to say, we are so very excited. And yes, this pregnancy was planned for those of you wondering but haven't asked. If there are any of you left?

Celebrate Someone Special Today

Happy birthday to the coolest mom in the world. We love you and hope you have a wonderful birthday!

This one cracked me up. I've never really pictured myself loompa-like, but this does look pretty good.
That's enough for now, I guess. Thanks to Shaylon for the laughs. He sure is a funny buddy.
