Back on Track
Sunday, June 3, 2007 Well guys I’m tired, sore, stiff and exhilarated! My friend Barry and I drove up to Reno this Friday to do a track day with Keigwin and it was a BLAST. Sure, it was a lot of work (mostly for Barry – so a major thank you to him) to prepare,
Now In Video!
Sunday, May 13, 2007 Well guys, you already know how much I enjoy motorcycles and riding around the Santa Cruz mountains here in the Bay Area. After playing around with still photos, I finally mounted up a video camera and edited myself a video. Check it out HERE. Oh yeah, I’ve also joined the whole
D’oh! A Deer…a Female Deer
Wednesday, February 21, 2007 Please pardon the quote from the Simpsons (and yes, I know that is decidedly *not* a female deer in the header – sue me). There is a context, so quit distracting me and I’ll get to it. So, as you guys know I’m a rider. No, not a ‘Cool Rider’ like
Birth Day
February 18, 2007 Well guys, I’ve been remiss in not posting this up weeks ago. Technically, months ago actually. Wow. So – here it is, the story of Nicky’s birth and all the drama that preceded it. As you can imagine, things didn’t quite go smoothly but they certainly did work out wonderfully. So here
Nicky Speaks!
February 4, 2007 So, it seems we have a little parrot on our hands. This video is a couple of weeks old, so he’s approximately 6 weeks old in it. He obviously takes after his Daddy : ) It’s amazing how he looks at you and responds when you talk to him. And even when
Nicky’s Photo Shoot
December 25, 2006 It had occurred to me, after seeing the amazing photos that Dan and Erin’s took with Grace, that a photo session with Nicky would be a nice way to document his early life beyond the abilities of our camera (and photo taking skills). Unfortunately, none of the photographers I spoke with was
So Hard To Leave
December 18, 2006 So after a hectic, wonderful, tiring and amazing week with Nicky, Mabel’s mother and since Friday her father Oscar, it was time to go back to work today. It was (as it has been all week) a night of brief stretches of sleep interspersed with diapers, feedings and general baby maintenance. The
All Up In My Crib
November 14, 2006 Like, literally. After a lot of “planning” (read: stalling, procrastinating, mind-changing, shopping, deciding, debating, rationalizing and essentially avoiding) the ‘rents have finally gotten off their respective butts and gotten my room (kinda) together. While they appear quite simple, cribs are hard to put together. Hard. As in finger-mashing, part-losing and what little
Busy First Few Days
December 15, 2006 We’re coming up on a week since baby Nick joined our little family. It’s been a wonderful ride, with a little less sleep a lot of new experiences and a wonderful little child changing our world. The oddest thing has been how it feels so natural. It’s like we had a space
Nerves…
Sunday, December 10, 2006 So, as noted in the BirthBlog things are heating up. One of the symptoms? Probably Mabel’s Mom getting worked up about things and rushing around to prepare things. It’s great and she’s a sweetheart. Unfortunately, we neglected to pick up dishwasher detergent in our earlier visit to the supermarket. So what?
