Movie Night With My Kids

Saturday Snap – Sasha’s First Visit To The Family Cottage

Went out to Katepwa Lake to put the pier in with my dad, uncle and cousin today as well as do a few other chores to get the cottage ready for the season. I think the caption for the following photo is: “Working Hard or Hardly Working?” 😉   My cousin drew the short straw […]

Flickr Redesign Now Gives You ONE TERABYTE of Space (and Some Other Thoughts on Cloud-Computing)

Flickr, a photography storage & sharing site which was one of the original Web 2.0 services (the missing vowel gives it away!), has lived in a state of benign neglect for the past few years after being acquired by Yahoo!  in 2005. Under the leadership of new CEO (and former Google #3) Marissa Mayer, Yahoo! […]

A Few Random Thoughts on Pace’s First “Real” Birthday Party

So now that Pace is in kindergarten and turning six, we decided to have his first “real” birthday party with a bunch of friends rather than just family members and/or a friend from daycare like in previous years. Here’s some random thoughts about what we did for Pace’s party this year and why… – in […]

Saturday Snap – Happy Sixth Birthday, Pace!

Shea and her first baby on his sixth birthday… (Well, the actual day is tomorrow but the party’s today which is causing a bit of stress for Pace – “But if my birth day’s tomorrow, how can we have the party today???”)

Sasha is One Month Old!

I’ve been taking at least a photo of Sasha every day since she was born. I’d seen various videos made from daily pics of babies, kids and others over the years but didn’t put a lot of thought into doing this with Sasha until, oh, pretty much the day she was born. While hanging out […]

Music Monday – “For here am I sitting in a tin can/Far above the world/Planet Earth is blue/And there’s nothing I can do”

Canadian astronaut, Col. Chris Hadfield’s final message from the International Space Station before returning to earth after five months in space is quite fitting (and has already gone viral like so much of the other content he’s provided.  One great example – a geography teacher at a Nova Scotia Community College created a cool Google Maps mash-up which […]

iPotty

This is brilliant…although if Sasha’s anything like her big brother, she’d find a way to pee on the iPad instead of the pot.  (A co-worker still brings up the story we told him when Pace was a toddler of Pace standing in our living room and peeing on our VCR!) (via /r/Daddit)

Happy Two Week Birthday, Sasha!

You don’t look a day over a week and a half! 😉

I’m a Dad – Random Thoughts About Sasha’s First Day (On Her One Week Birthday)

So as much as I’d like to just keep posting pictures of Sasha, eventually I’ve got to get back to blog posts that have “letters” and “words” rather than cute pictures. A good place to start would be with a look back at that first day, inspired partly by many of the notes I scribbled […]
