Happy Birthday Jack!
Happy Birthday Jack!! It's hard to believe it's been a whole year since Jack was born.
He's quite a guy to hang out with now - he's walking, laughing and smiling like you wouldn't believe. He always wakes up with a smile on his face too - quite the opposite of his big sister. 
I'd post a recent picture, but I killed my PowerBook last week, where all our pictures are stored. In the meantime, here's a video of him walking from last week.
Happy Birthday Julie!
Happy Birthday Julie! Today we're loving life: Julie got to sleep 'til noon and now everyone is relaxing in the pool. Tonight the party starts at 7:00. Florida is beautiful this time of year.
A weekend of fun
After working long hours last week, it was nice to have a weekend of relaxing and playing with the kids. Julie to Vegas on Friday night and returned Saturday night - so I had the kids solo for 24 hours. Saturday morning, I took them to Tiny Town where fun was had by all. Today, we took Jack on his first bike ride. Below are some pics from the events.
Jack is crawling!
Jack's been scootching around for a couple of weeks now. Tonight he decided it was time to start using his knees - and lo and behold - he's now a crawler! Good stuff little man. 
Jack in his scootching days
On related note, I showed Julie that today (05.05.05) only happens once in 7000 years - she responded with "yeah, well Jack will only crawl once ever."

Our little boy has arrived!
We've all make it home safe and sound. This birth was pretty easy compared to Abbie's. We left for the hospital at 8:15 pm and Jack was born shortly after midnight. Julie was a champ - two pushes and he was out! Julie's mom and sister flew in so we've been having a great time with all the family around. Life is great in Denver right now.
The Whole Family
Abbie goes on a hike
Yesterday, Abbie I went on a hike in the Denver foothills. Here's a cute picture from my new little hiking buddy.

Happy Father's Day!
Thanks for being such a great friend and father Pappy! You continue to amaze me with your knowledge of history and your perception on life. Our trip back from San Diego was a blast and I can't wait until you, Mom and Kalin come out to Denver for my birthday next month.
Below is a recent picture of Abbie - I sure am a proud Papa!
Happy Anniversary Julie!
Today is Julie and I's 4-year anniversary. It's hard to believe that 4 years has gone by so fast. That's part of the reason I started this weblog - so I'd be able to document my life and know exactly what I was thinking on a certain date. Unfortunately, if I look back, I'll probably just see that (most of the time), a new Hibernate release came out. ;-)
I couldn't ask for a better wife or mother of my children. She really is the one for me and I couldn't be a luckier guy. Just for kicks, here's a picture on our wedding day. The funny thing is the picture is from exactly 4 years, 15 minutes ago. We got married at 5 p.m. EDT, and I suspect this picture was taken around 5:45. We'll be celebrating tonight with a babysitter and a nice dinner out.
Happy Birthday Kalin
Happy Birthday sis!! Make the Luck o' the Irish bless you all day long...
