Too many hobbies, not enough focus
I got into Macs when I was in middle school typing class. We mostly had green-screened console-driven Apple IIs but there were also five graphical mouse-able Macs that we rotated through. The Macs were old even for that time, consisting mostly of Mac Classic, LC, and II models. Some were color, some were black and …
Our two boys may be the same age, but they could not be any more different. Adam likes to sit, Zach likes to stand. Adam likes to talk, Zach likes to laugh. Zach's poop doesn't smell, Adam's smells like a sewage plant. Zach sleeps in his crib at night, up until last weekend Adam did …

Holy crap, it's been five months! I missed the four-month post, but I'll catch you up. I feel like the boys have changed a lot since they were three months old. First of all, let's talk about grabbing. The boys have officially discovered their hands and are grabby, grabby, grabby! Adam led the charge and …

Today begins a special weekend. Today begins Boys' weekend. That's right, a weekend with just me and the boys. Sally took her mom to a Dolly Parton concert in Connecticut today and since they won't be home tonight, it's just me and the boys. Now, I've been home with the boys before and while it's …
I haven't taken photos in about two weeks. I was out with a cold a couple of weeks ago and spent most of last week recovering from it. I did however have a chance to take some photos before I got sick. I was inspired by some black and whites from another photographer that I …
