It seems strange now that exactly one year ago today, I wrote a post about the Best Christmas Ever. It is crazy how quickly your life can change. I mentioned in some detail the fact that we lost Amy's Mom around Christmas years back and how it changed the...

I try not to do a lot of complaint posts or bitch-fests since, well, let's be honest, I'm a middle-class white male. I'm blessed with a kind, smart and understanding woman for a wife and a handsome baby boy. Life is pretty good overall. I preface this...

There is so much to write about these days, but not surprisingly I have been too tired to write. While I don't have a single theme to bind this post together, I do have a number of random thoughts bouncing in my head these days. 1. Barack Obama is our...

After we lost my mom it felt pointless to prattle on about indie music, sneakers, code or any of the other topics I have covered since I started blogging. I have been adjusting to life without my mom and we're making progress, I think. I am typing...

My lovely wife Amy, who has apparently become a blogging experts of sorts, notified me that if I want people to read my blog then I should make an effort to keep it fresh. Well, even though I don't have one major topic to expound on, I do have a number of...

I am sitting here before we're about to crash and Elliot is playing with his Whoozit (a stuffed toy made of different textured/colored material). Quite a day for mommy and daddy, filled with lots of errands and heaps of poo and pee. Most of our discussion...

So, at Barefoot this morning, I was reading an article about a girl born on July 7 of this year. To make the story even more "interesting", she weighed 7 pounds 7 ounces. It got us thinking. Elliot was born on July 4 2007 (7 4 7) and weighed 7 pounds and...
