I had one of my proudest days as a parent Wednesday night when Lukas took home not one but two trophies at the Awana Grand Prix. Lukas won all four of his heats outlasting 16 other kids and winning his first trophy, the Grand Prix Division 1 speed trophy. He posted times of 2.78 (second [...]

Pirate Party Hangover – October 20, 2008

Nothing like starting a Monday morning with a royal screw up. I made my first mistake in the new office on Friday and it was a doozy! I withdrew $150 from a client’s account twice then quickly had to reimburse one of the charges. This morning she calls up and complains and I don’t blame [...]

I finally got over that cold I was complaining about. And just in time for me to enjoy the final two days of my brother and my uncle’s visit. When I last left you I was fighting a cold and wondering if I’d have to postpone my birthday. Well, things didn’t get better on my [...]
Did You Say A Month?!? – August 24, 2008
Posted in Baby, Kids, Lia, Lukas on August 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Somebody slap me please! It just dawned on me this evening that we are just weeks away from having another child brought into our world. Gulp! I’m not physically, mentally or emotionally prepared for this. I’m scared – wait that’s an emotion right? I don’t know what it is! These past eight months have flown [...]
Lukas: Year Three – October 17, 2007
Posted in Birthday, Lukas on October 17, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Three years! My how time files. Seems like just months ago that Lis and I were standing in the maternity wing of the hospital, the nurses telling her that they didn’t think she was pregnant then being totally surprised that she was in intense labor and not showing any signs that she was in pain. [...]
Terrible Two’s, more like the Trying Three’s – September 24, 2007
Posted in Lukas on September 26, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I don’t know who came up with the so-called Terrible Two’s, but I’m guessing it was from someone with a daughter (after all, aren’t girls the ones that supposedly learn faster than boys?) or someone eons ago that couldn’t remember the date of birth of their child. Either way, Lis and I have determined that [...]
Horse Races, the Fair and Lukas – August 30, 2007

Went to the horse races this past weekend. Had a fun time, though I lost $10 of my dollars and $12 of my Grandpa’s. Sorry Gramps! It was still fun trying to pick the horses, using different types of strategies such as: the jockey’s name is Kevin, my favorite number is three, my favorite color [...]

Thanks to Michelle (HarleyHugger) for letting me know that MSN is featuring me this week on their main MSN Spaces page. It’s probably been going on for a week now and I haven’t even updated my page. How frustrating! I’ve gotten close to 1,000 views this week and have now pushed my total to over [...]
