Paige on her way to her first Gymnastics class


Isn't she just a natural? Look at her posture and her straight legs...

Beck said the instructor asked her: "How old is she again?" Beck said 2 and 1/2. "Wow." was her response.... Posted by Picasa

Hockey is BACK!

This is for you Gramma Kaine. Posted by Picasa

"Smiling in the rain!"

Is that how the song goes? Well, Paige saw Daddy grilling with the umbrella and insisted on going outside with Cappa. Posted by Picasa

How beautiful are my ladies?

Paige and a little Bunny

Daddy found this little bunny when he was mowing the lawn... (we won't mention the fate of two of his brothers) Posted by Picasa

Feed me!

He got so fired up when Paige was feeding him, that he actually got his head stuck in the fence! Posted by Picasa

Christmas is only 4,806,540 seconds away!


And.... as of press time, there were only 80,107 minutes until Christmas (via christmas.com)

So, you should almost have your shopping done, right? HA! Well, this post is for all you folks who have no idea what to get people this year.

Uncle Mark publishes an annual Gift Giving Guide for the idea-less out there. As you may know, I pride myself on knowing about all of the coolest gadgets and tech toys out there and I was pleasantly suprised that Uncle Kraker, I mean Uncle Mark had a LOT of cool things I had never heard of.

A good example is:

"HP Laserjet 1012: I use and recommend this simple, inexpensive, all-around great laser printer.
It’s Mac- and Windows-compatible, black-and-white only, and about $100. Done."

Sounds a little like my writing. He must be good.

Free 4-1-1


This phone number is really free. Don't know about you but I HATE paying like $1.75 for every darn call to 4-1-1 from my cell phone.

Why is it more expensive to call 4-1-1 from your car then it is from your house? I guess it has to do with the "gotcha" factor.

Anyway, this is a great idea - and I tested it out. You call the number it asks you a few questions, and while it pulls up your listing - it reads an ad to you for Mr Ticket or something. After about 10 seconds, it either connects you to your requested number or gives you the number audibly.

I say pretty cool - I have already programmed it into my phone!

Real Sign: Uhhhh Humm


Yeah! You might drink your spill... well slobber your lips. You mean what I know.

Damn Cool Illusion

You have to check out this site.

It's pretty dern cool what our eyes tell our minds when we look at this in different ways.

Check it out.


* Digression: I started using http://del.icio.us/
about 2 months ago to manage my bookmarks across browsers. I use the laptop mostly but I'm in the home office, the office, and the daycare enough to want to get to my bookmarks no matter where I am.

I took note of http://del.icio.us/popular/ this week. Basically, links that are added often and recently appear in this category. You could say it's like a group of people who sit around and talk about the cool sites on the internet and give out the URL's.... except no one is actually talking.
