Lisa is sick of me taking pictures of Owen sleeping on her - but he looks SOOOOO comfortable..... Posted by Picasa

Not to worry - he's feeling better now.... Posted by Picasa

It's a little blurry, but doesn't he look so sad here? Posted by Picasa

I love this shot - he's so serious... Posted by Picasa

He was very quiet for a couple of days - here he's feeling a little better.... Posted by Picasa

Lisa and Owen taking a nap - both weren't feeling too good lately... Posted by Picasa

After several complaints...

There will be NO toenail-removal pics posted to this blog. Since we're so full of Owen-y goodness, it was decided that gross shots of my toes had no place here. You can stop squinting when you open this page - the pictures won't be here!

For those of you unaware, I had my big toenails removed on March 22nd...

What do you get with four guys and two hours of sweating? Well, if you live my life, you get your hottub moved across town and into your backyard. Doesn't it just look like our decks were BUILT for this thing? Posted by Picasa

Owen sitting up in our bed - although you can't really tell, because he's wearing a sleepsack... Posted by Picasa

Gleefully stolen from Peri


who gleefully NICKED it from Crash:

Make your own South Park character!

Here's South Park Higgy...

Yes, he's tired-looking, wearing a headset (I have a lot of time on conference calls) but still has a beer!

Make your own character here!

A bit of a blurry shot, but I got his smile at last! Posted by Picasa

Owen has discovered mirrors. I love the look on his face! Posted by Picasa

We then went for Mexican food - during which, Arwen showed us her patented "nostril grab" maneuver..... Posted by Picasa

Gene would "fly" Owen in to Arwen's face. It worked fine until he actually headbutted her!  Posted by Picasa

Gene is grooving on being a new dad as well (Arwen was born in July 2005.) It looks like Owen is more interested in the beer than in being held.... Posted by Picasa

We drove up to Truckee CA to meet with our friends Gene and May (and their daughter Arwen.) They wanted a chance to meet Owen (and do a little skiing at the same time!) Posted by Picasa

We're off to meet up with Gene, May, Arwen and Aunt Joan

My good friend Gene is skiing in Tahoe this week - and we're going to go meet up with him, his wife and daughter in Truckee, CA. We're also going to meet his Aunt Joan, who first introduced Gene to J.R.R Tolkien! Very exciting stuff. Will post pictures tomorrow.

It got COLD over the weekend, so we bundled the little guy up - doesn't he look snug? Posted by Picasa

Then Owen hangs out with Dad for a little bit.... Posted by Picasa

Owen and mom hanging out in Pete's office. Note the dragons playing "Houses and Humans" in the background! Posted by Picasa

Gleefully stolen from Deon..

is THIS interesting little site. You do a sketch, submit it, then get a sketch from someone else!

This shot cracks me up - that orange fish has my son hypnotized... Posted by Picasa

It's TUMMY TIME! - actually, here it looks like he's picking out a book instead of playing... Posted by Picasa

Then later, we practice standing on Dad's crotch.... Posted by Picasa

Totally conked out.... Posted by Picasa

Nothing like a nap on a boppy after a hard day of spitting up on Mom and Dad... Posted by Picasa

Yeah, it's pretty comfy in Dad's arms... Posted by Picasa

Then it's time to sit with Dad for a while... Posted by Picasa

This shot cracked me up. It's like he's doing the hand-jive or something... Posted by Picasa
