Pace's Cutest Moment Yet
Pace has recently added “kisses” to his bag of tricks. When you say “kisses” or make a lip smacking kissing noise, he'll do the same thing. That's pretty cool in and of itself but the other night, he was sleeping on the couch between Shea and I. I leaned over him to give Shea a […]
Pace's First Wedding
Shea's cousin got married today to a recent RCMP graduate. The ceremony was at the chapel at the RCMP Training Depot (apparently the oldest building in Regina – I did not know that!) then the reception was in a small town forty minutes outside Regina and about ten minutes down the road from where Shea […]
Pace's First Word(s)
We were at our family farm last weekend for a family reunion. Shea was standing with Pace and one of my aunts. “What's that?” the aunt said pointing at a tractor.“Track-ter!” Pace said.“Oh, he's really talking, isn't he?” said the aunt.“Uhm, yes” replied Shea who had never heard Pace say this word before.So, here's a […]
The Relationship Between Fathers and Sons
A photo from this weekend ties in nicely to a thread I started at AskMetaFilter today (and if you haven't read “The Prince of Frogtown“, I'd highly recommend it!)
Friday Late Link – "Your Parents Named You WHAT?" (Aug 1, 2008)
I didn't get a chance to do a post on Friday so this will be my late Friday Fun Link. I thought it was somewhat appropriate after a weekend of explaining to relatives why we would ever name a child “Pace”. (Okay, it wasn't that bad but one relative did continually refer to him as […]
Who's Yer Daddy?
This is a shot of Pace up to no good at the Weyburn Public Library after watching Weldon the Wacky Wizard, our summer reading tour performer.I have no idea how Shea (dark brown hair) and myself (medium brown hair) managed to have a kid with such blond hair. (Of course he was conceived somewhere around […]
Several Lessons To Be Learned From the Finnish School System
I first became aware of the best-in-the-world ranking of Finnish schools in the excellent book, “Under Pressure: Rescuing Childhood from the Culture of Hyper Parenting” by Carl Honore. (This is probably one of the best books I've read so far this year and would highly recommend it, whether you are a parent or not. A […]
Songs For A Sleepless Baby
Here's a list of the songs Pace is most likely to hear when fighting against going to sleep (which is pretty much every night these days). I know it's not a very diverse list but hey, why fight the classics?In order:1. “Beautiful Boy” – John Lennon2. “Golden Slumbers” – The Beatles3. “Tell Me Your Dream” […]
I Scream, You Scream…
…We All Scream For Ice Cream! It was a very eventful weekend for Pace – hitting the beach, encounters with local celebrities, visiting Wolseley – a nearby town that has a lake in the middle of it, watching mud derbies, taking his first ride on a tube behind a boat and more. Shea has her […]
