No twins yet (pout). But Jackson let us sleep in a lot by toddler standards—6:30! He shows a definite preference for strawberry jelly over grape—but he did eat a whole biscuit with jelly on it. That’s the first time I’ve…
Books, Babies, Friends
Home again, home again, jiggity jig… We went out to get Katie’s new history book at Borders—she whipped through the last one. And on the way, got a call from rasilio saying that _starrgirl_ is having contractions. So we turned…
Growing Up
I think my baby just officially became a teenager. Yes, she’s just 11. But we can’t go run errands yet (and we have several things to do before archery practice) because she’s blow-drying and curling her hair. I think I’ll…

Sounds
sambear brought home this cool switch thing. It can take four audio video/inputs to two outputs. I grabbed the first thing that came to hand to test the phono input—Daddy’s Sounds of Marine Corps Boot Camp. Now there’s a new…
Damned Evil Fairies
Okay, dammit, who has my RCA to mini adapter dingus? I haveta have it to run the line back from the headphone jack on the stereo to the input jack on the PC.

Coloring Pages?
I know some of my friends have littluns. It’s been a while for me, and most of our coloring stuff is for much older people—like my mandala coloring books. Jackson isn’t impressed. I found some neat stuff at http://www.janbrett.com/, but…
Jackson!
Well! We had Jackson (_starrgirl_ and rasilio‘s toddler) here overnight. He’s been here plenty of times before, but this is the first sleepover. He was up at 4:30! Well, he did have a full diaper. And he was very angry…
