Our Little Monkey Boy

Biggest Loser Challenge

0

Wow, it has been a long time since my last blog post!  I have just been so busy lately.  Aiden has really kept us on our toes lately and I just haven’t wanted to work on the blog at the end of a long day.  I just backed up my laptop and have over 10 [...]

Picking Apples

0

Wow, it’s been a while since my last post.  We have been so busy lately that I haven’t had much time to myself.  I can’t imagine how it will be after our next one is born.  Back to the task at hand… Aiden picking apples. Mondays are usually reserved for Pat watching Aiden for the [...]

Here We Go Again

0

A few weeks ago while at work, Denise asked me to check my email.  So I leave my lunch sanctuary to check my email in the office and it is a picture of a positive pregnancy test strip that she emailed with her Blackberry. So just like Marty McFly, jump in your DeLorean and skip [...]

Duct Tape – 'cause You Just Never Know

3

Last weekend Russ, Aiden, myself, and our friends Nate and Kim, went camping up in Andover, Maine (It sounds really good when you put in the Maine accent.) at South Arms Campground.  We have come away from this camping trip with many lessons, and would like to share our lessons with you to assist you [...]

My Early Father's Day Gift

3

Last week, Denise tells me that after dinner and putting Aiden to bed that she has a project to work on.  She sometimes has to to bring home work to complete any unfinished projects that may have an upcoming deadline.    Here is the scene.  All TV shows are in limbo, so Denise is on [...]

Best Part of the Day

4

Around 4PM every day, I really start itching to get out of work.  The best part of my day is right around the corner!  I get to pick up Aiden from daycare!  And I’ll tell you, he never disappoints!  No matter how bad my day could have been, that smile makes me forget all about [...]

What the F?

1

Some recent silliness from yesterday that I thought I’d share.  It all started with Denise and I deciding to purchase a couple bicycles to get us on our path away from laziness.  Denise found a CraigsList ad for 2 Schwinn bicycles on sale for $210.  It was a pretty good price, so we decided to [...]

Shut Up and Get Over Here!

4

Our “Shut Up and Get Over Here!” extravaganza was a raving success (and a good time to boot)!  Here’s how it all started:  A few months ago we decided that installing our walkway by ourselves was too big of an undertaking and would just never get done.  So, Denise thought “I have friends!  Why not [...]

My version of the LEARNING TOWER

4

So, the other day Denise told me about a piece of baby furniture that she wanted for Aiden called the “Learning Tower”.  You can check it out at Little Partners.  It’s a very cool product.  It’s like a safe stool that children can use to be at “our level” so they can interact with us [...]

Sit!

1

Aiden has been using a new word all weekend- Sit! He tells everyone to sit. It is hysterical. It is interesting how he kept saying Dad and then stopped. Now his word is sit. The other funny thing that he has been doing is crossing his arms. I posted a picture on the sidebar. I [...]
