So Many Changes
Helena has changed so much in the last few weeks. No sooner did she start crawling, then, did she figure out how to pull herself up to a standing position. She is trying to talk. Ma-ma is her favorite word. But she is slowly but surely learning how to say dad-da. In fact, today is…
Read MoreMyrtle Beach Update
We are having a good time on our vacation down here in Myrtle Beach. Helena is not overly impressed with the ocean and has no desire to get her feet wet, but that hasn’t stopped dad from trying. We toured some gardens yesterday that were absolutely beautiful. They were about an hour away and it…
Read MoreLong Drive – Great Finish
Two days and 900 miles later we enjoyed a walk in the ocean at sunset. Can’t wait to go for a swim. Helena did awesome in the car but is very happy to not be in the car seat again for a little while.
Read MoreOut To The Coast
After having a little spat with cabin fever we decided we needed to get out of the house. The destination was the ocean. Helena’s first trip since about 3 weeks old. She had a great time and seemed very impressed with the ocean this time (don’t think she even opened her eyes last time). But…
Read MoreFirst trip to the Grocery store
We took our first trip to the grocery store as a family today. And while that may seem insignificant to some, when you take a 6 week old who doesn’t like the car seat and tends to fuss in the evening and conquer the fear of taking her out in public and actually succeed…well that’s…
Read More4 Weeks Today
Hard to believe Helena has already been in our lives for 4 weeks. She and dad are spending some quiet time together today (for a change). I gotta say that I love her outfit!!
Read MoreBack From Ohio
After an extremely busy weekend where Christine worked me like a dog to get things ready for our new arrival I finally have 2 minutes to post some pictures of our recent trip. That’s only because we’re going to work a little late today so we can meet with a potential Day Care center. To…
Read MoreCuyahoga Valley National Park
We hit up another national park this weekend in our quest to see them all. While this one was not exactly The Grand Canyon it did have a very beautiful waterfall called Brandywine (how very Lord of the Rings) Falls. There were a few hikes to be done, but we couldn’t do too many of…
Read MoreWorking Weekend
It was back to work this weekend after a fun trip to New York City to visit Patricia last weekend. I’m finally just getting to download the pictures after all the painting (Thanks Mom!! and yard work (YUCK!!). One thing you can always count on when going to New York to see Patricia is a…
Read MoreA little bit more about Seattle…
As you may have noticed, I posted pictures of Seattle in my last entry. What you probably did not notice is that in at least one of the pictures I was holding a video camera. Where there’s a video camera, there often follows video. This is really my first opportunity to mess around with iMovie…
