Yo Yo Max

New Pictures!! Max has discovered some of the joys of yo-yo-ing. Why some? Because he can drop it like the best of them; getting it to come back up is the trick. This problem is compounded by the fact that the string is longer than he is tall (hence him standing on the dining room […]

Do You Have a… ?

This one’s from Jen: Heather, Kevin’s younger sister – note I didn’t say little – is starting to have multiple suitors. Max has met one, Jeremy, and has heard about the another one, Paul. Out of the blue, Max said to me, “Do you have a pa?” I said, “Pa? Yes, I have a dad, […]

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, sweetheart. How did she celebrate? She watched the finale of her favorite show (Buffy), went out to lunch, did a little shopping, ate some food, laughed and got some presents. Next year? We do something big. No, I mean it. Big, big, big, big… just you wait and see.

New/Old Pics

I put up a bunch of pictures today as well (been a busy boy, have I): New! Going Away Picnic For Our Friends: I got to hold and play with babies!! Christmas 2000: Max was 1… how can a one year-old at Christmas not be adorable? Jen’s Favorite Max Pics: 18 months old on our […]

Mother’s Day

I love my wife. She is a great mother and our […]

My Sister, The Big Winner

My sister is a winner (and again, and there will probably be a column about the whole thing here later, and here’s another one). She has been since she started beating my grandfather at UNO when she was three (that episode also gave me my favorite nickname, “Smartass”). Now, she’s in the big league of […]

The Baltimore Aquarium And Other Photographic Disasters

The Baltimore Aquarium Lunch At City Lights in the Inner Harbor Yes, that’s right, two new galleries for the price of one! We went to the Baltimore Aquarium yesterday. It was packed. Max got a little claustrophobic, so we rushed through most of it, except the cool ramp around the inside of the big tank. […]

New Lawver Pics!

Nooooooo!!

Please, make him stop!! I can’t take any more puppy cuteness, or I will just break down and buy one. It’s not fair. I don’t even like dogs. In fact, I don’t understand humans’ need for animal companionship, but every time I see pictures of Oliver, and now the puppies, my cold animal agnostic heart […]
