Ginger, where are you?

No comments

Update: we found Ginger about 10 minutes after I put out a bunch of signs around the neighborhood. She was two doors down from us. She apparently didn’t realize that she was at the wrong house! We brought her home, gave her a bath and took her to the vet the next day. She checked [...]

Weekend project for Aaron

No comments

Aaron’s started VPK this year and we just got his first weekend project. His teacher traced his body and we were supposed to decorate it to look like Aaron. Here are some pictures. Before: After:

I’ve had a cold for five days now. Last night, after I got home from work, I had a “stuffy” right ear. No big deal, I thought, the pressure will just go away. I deal with the pressure in my ears when I fly and am accustomed to it just going away after a few [...]

Aaron had eye surgery on Thursday, July 10th. Meri and I were a total wreck that day. Aaron was brave, as he always is. I posted the key events of the day on plurk.com and on twitter (via ping.fm on my VZW BlackBerry). All of my updates, via plurk.com, several hours before the surgery, leaving [...]

Tomorrow is the day that Meri and I have been dreading since Aaron’s diagnosis back in December 2007. He’s having his eye surgery. I’m not going to list all of the potential negative effects of the surgery because he is going to come out great and the surgery is going to go strictly by the book. There aren’t [...]

Aaron’s Eye Surgery

No comments

Aaron’s intermittent exotropia I discussed previously has been getting progressively worse. Meri and I have both been noticing that he is squinting more and more, even when he’s not outside in full sun and even when he’s wearing sunglasses.  Meri and I have had a bad feeling about what we both [pessimistically] thought would need [...]

Happy Father’s day

Today, my sleep-deprived wife made me a big breakfast when she woke up.  Aaron drew me a card and actually wrote several sentences in it!  It was one of the best cards I’ve ever received.  Meri got me a picture of my boys together and a picture of their hand prints. She also got me [...]

Aaron and I had a fun day. We played the beach ball game in the house a couple times, we went to the pool, we watched T.V. together and we did about 4 or 5 puzzles together. Aaron had his final soccer game of the season last Thursday (6/5/08). The coaches had a party for [...]

Eli weighs a ton!

No comments

Well, not literally a ton but he does weigh about 16 1/2 pounds! I don’t think Aaron weighed that much until he was about 8 months old. The biggest difference between Aaron and Eli’s weight is that Eli doesn’t spit up nearly as much as Aaron did. When Aaron was Eli’s age, he had acid [...]

Week in review

No comments

We got back from our trip to mass. on Tuesday. The trip was like our normal trips, some fighting, some fun, more uncomfortable than anything really. We had Aaron’s birthday party on sunday, in mass. He had a lot of fun and got quite a few gifts. We had to mail ourselves a box full [...]
