Poor Dog
Gretchen wouldn’t stop licking her cut, so she got a cone. Gretchen is awful with cones. She never figures out her head is a lot bigger than it used to be and she now needs to accommodate the new size, so she spends her time in the cone crashing into door jams, chairs, cabinets, furniture, […]
Inside Out and Tacoed
Rode last night. Conditions were awesome. Everything had that dark wet misty feel to it. Parts of the ride were with the old group. Those parts hurt. Those are the parts where I turned myself inside out. Those were the parts where it hurt too much to be embarrassed my knee warmers no longer fit […]

Bob, I Lost the Baby
Abigail’s still averaging two feedings a night. Generally there’s one somewhere in the 11:30pm – 1:30am time frame (depending on how early she goes down), then another around 3:30am. After the 3:30am feeding, she’ll sleep anywhere from three to five hours. She always/only sleeps in the swing. After hearing this, some friends recommended we go […]
French Creek Race
I’ve volunteered in one way or another for the last four years at the French Creek Mt. bike race. In the past I’ve had the luxury of providing a lot of time and energy toward the race. This year, not so much. When I rolled in at seven this morning I saw Yoder and asked […]
Infant PFD Cont.
Not one to give up easily, I tried another life jacket session with Abigail. This time I waited till she was happy and having fun and only tried the one that semi-worked earlier. We started out nice and slow. First she just laid on top of it. After a while of that, I put her […]
Hot Chicks
Went for a walk in the park with Jen and Abigail yesterday afternoon. It was sunny, so everyone needed their sunglasses. Some needed a thumb to suck on as well. But I thought the best shot was with the sunglasses pushed up. Lot more attitude that way. – b
Eleven Stitches
and over $600 later… Gretchen will survive (as long as she keeps from licking it). She’ll have a scar (yet another), but she’ll survive. Should be running again in a week. – b
Infant PFDs
Being the adventurous folks that we are, Jen and I decided we’d try a little canoeing with The Gail. First things first she needs a life jacket. Hit up the interweb, do a little research, then spend $200 on five different models/styles. See the most important thing about an infant life vest (beyond the fact […]
Head Control
It’s all pretty much there. She’s stronger in the mornings when she’s slept the most, but the evenings aren’t bad. Don’t think I’ll be hiking with her for another week or so. That would probably require more stability in the neck then she’s got right now. She’s good to stroll around the house and probably […]
