Triple/Double Infection
It’s been a tough 6 weeks for us here. I guess after getting through most of the winter without colds or sickness, we’re paying our dues. Back in the middle of April, shortly after she’d gone to bed, Abigail got sick in her bed, then proceeded to get sick all the way down the hall […]
Lu Passed Out
There was a phase when it was damn near impossible to get Lu Bear to take a nap. Now it’s easy. Bad for her teeth, but easy to nap. Bottle (yes a bottle – desperate measures) of warm milk puts her right out. – b
Early Father’s Day Picnic
Abigail’s school had an early father’s day picnic this past week since school won’t be in session at that time. It was pretty nice. We had tuna fish sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies on her picnic blanket made by her aunt Melissa. Plus I got to miss a couple of meetings at work. They had […]
Pool’s Open
It’s open, but still very green. Due to lack of rain, had to do a lot of filling. The biggest task so far is cleaning up the landscaping within the pool fence. We’ve let it get completely out of control the last couple of years. Good thing I had some help. Removed enough stuff to […]

Picked up a used dirtboard for the girls to play with. The theory is that something might translate to snowboarding for them. Who knows? It was cheap, and worth a try. We try it out on the little grassy hills in the park – gradually moving higher up the hill each turn. The damn thing […]
Spring 2015 Daddy Daughter Camping
Had the annual trip. This time we stepped it up to two nights. Abigail has been wanting to do two nights for a while. Due to some scheduling conflicts it worked out for her. The first night (Friday night) Willa and Nora were able to make it out. My girls look whooped in this picture, […]
R.I.P. Basil
Our 18 year old cat Basil decided May 6 was to be her last. Jen was hoping she’d make it until that night when our Vet. friend could come over after the Wed. night mountain bike ride and take care of things, but it wasn’t meant to be. Instead she took her to another Vet. […]
First of Nineteen Procedures
Had my decaying root canal replaced with a crown the other day. That’s 1 down 18 more to go, though the hygienist assured me this was by far the worst culprit. – b
