Delayed flight…

By on June 16, 2008 in Text Post with 0 Comments

It was almost a cancelled flight, so I’m glad it is only a delay now. There were technical issues with the plane, so they finally found us a new plane and we leave at 7:55pm now (instead of 5:15). The only issue now is that we only have about 40 minutes once we get to […]

Now that all the work is done, I’m spending a few days getting all of the equipment ready for the trip next week. Three years ago when I went to Hong Kong I had a whole cart full of equipment to do the job. This year, I’ll be able to fit almost all of the equipment into […]

It’s been Crazy!

It’s been Crazy!

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it’s been pretty crazy over the last several weeks. One of our biggest jobs always comes down to last minute deadlines in May/June every year, all leading up to a trip somewhere (that’s part of the same job). This year it’s Bangkok […]

Andrew & Max, Playing in Their Crib

By on May 28, 2008 in Text Post, Video Post with 0 Comments

A few weeks ago we finally moved the boys to their own cribs instead of letting them sleep in the co-sleeper. It’s fun to watch them interact with each other though, which is what they’re doing here.  [qt:/blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527b.mov /blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527b.jpg /blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527b.mov 600 337]

The “Photo Shoot”

While little John was here visiting (my sister Dawn’s little boy) we tried to get a cute photo of all 3 of them. John was up for it, but the twins wanted nothing to do with it.  [qt:/blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527a.mov /blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527a.jpg /blog/video/Blog_Post_08-0527a.mov 600 337]

This is that time of year that our business is at its peek. Many video projects to get done, looming deadlines, and it all ends with a big 2 week international trip, this year to Bangkok Thailand. And so for the last several weeks, and for the next several, it’s basically just work for me. […]

Today is the last day of our living room remodel. Both Jim and Greg are working hard today to make sure it’s all done before they leave. As you can see, the lovely TV is now on the wall. It’s not even plugged in yet, but it’s still nice having it there. I have a feeling I’ll […]

4 Month Checkup

4 Month Checkup

By on April 26, 2008 in iPhone, Photo Post, Text Post with 0 Comments

The boys had their 4 month checkup yesterday as well as a few immunization shots. Needless to say they were not happy when it was all over and it was quite the stressful ordeal. Max was screaming most of the time and made some sounds I’ve never heard him make before. I have to give […]
