Surviving Halloween and the sugar overload.
Last night was Lily’s first Halloween where she dressed up and went trick or treating; her second overall. The first place we went was the grocery store.

Happy Halloween From Our Little Monkey To Yours
I hope everyone has a good Halloween this year! We carved six pumpkins and I colored one at work. This will be Lily’s second Halloween and her first really dressing up. We are going to hit a few houses and get Dad some candy before coming home and handing out our own.

Here it is 4th of July weekend and we’ve got no plans, which is a good thing, however fireworks are pretty much out for this year. Now I love fireworks, and I’m not a fan of sitting inside on the 4th when they are going on, but I’m not taking Lily to see them this […]
3 days, 900 miles and one good baby.
Over Memorial Day weekend we headed up to Bismarck, ND for a wedding and were extremely happy with how well Lily rode in the car. Friday evening we drove to Bismarck, spend the day Saturday, and drove back Sunday morning. That’s about 900 miles in just three days. Lily sat in her car seat and […]
What gift do you get mom for her first Mother’s Day?
Today is my wife’s first Mother’s Day. I went back and forth on a gift, as I wasn’t sure what to get. Since the gift is supposed to come from Lily, and she’s not old enough to decide, what does a dad do? I thought of all the typical gifts, like jewelry and what not, […]
