What the…?

Bonus points to anyone who can figure out what this is a re-enactment of. Even more bonus points to the funniest response.

Meet the Artist

Meet the Artist

Okay, I’ll admit it, the main reason I am posting this—aside from the fact that it is kind of neat we got a picture of Colin meeting the artist of the painting we bought for him on our Boston trip—was so that I could stop looking at my idiot face and the rest of the [...]

Slobber Welcomes Colin to Iowa

Slobber Welcomes Colin to Iowa

Back in Earley July (yes, pun intended), Deb, Colin and I went out to Iowa to visit with Grandma Reed again and introduce Colin to some cousins, some grandparents, some great-grandparents, and one very interested dog. It seems Toby thought Colin smelled pretty good—and even wanted a taste. Colin has been around a big dog [...]

Grandmas & Grandpas & Cousins—Oh My!

Grandmas & Grandpas & Cousins—Oh My!

I was so excited for the Iowa trip knowing that we were going to get an honest-to-goodness 4-generation picture for Colin. I’m not sure why it seemed so important to me, though I suspect it has to do with my missing my grandparents (especially Grandpa Brown who lived with us for a while: he never [...]

Grandparents and Baby [...]

Sky Cradle Club

Sky Cradle Club

We have proof!
Signed by a real Captain and everything!

Colin really was a great flyer on our trip to Iowa and back over the 4th of July holiday, but as we were getting off (err, “de-planing”) the first leg of our flight from Des Moines to New York, the Captain of the plane saw us and [...]

Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

We had a rather nice one here on the East Coast. At least that’s what Matt tells me.
It was a weekend of firsts. Colin starting sleeping through the night to both Mommy and Daddy’s delight. He has learned a new sound and woke Daddy up on Saturday morning by saying Da-da-da-da-da. He spent [...]
