Caleb Do It!!! That is the new motto in our house. Caleb has to do everything by himself without any help from parents. I think this is part of why people refer to the twos as terrible. Caleb wants to dress and undress himself without any help, but when something goes wrong he freaks out. [...]

We’ve lived in Fort Worth for five years, and we just heard about it this summer and experienced it for the first time over the weekend. I’m talking about Burger’s Lake, a spring-fed, chlorinated lake with a sandy beach, a 20 foot slide, a 25 foot trapeze, diving boards, picnic tables, and big shade trees. [...]

Even though Caleb is a big boy now he still loves to be rocked while we sing to him before nap and bed time. Today I was singing "Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus" when all of a sudden he started singing every word in the first stanza. I guess he has been listening [...]

Caleb has finally learned all of his ABC’s. He lays in bed at night and sings the ABC song over and over. It is the cutest thing ever! I wish you could all hear it. The other night he got stuck at "g" and just kept screaming "g" over and over. Andy and I were [...]

Sorry it’s been a few weeks since my last post. Things have been hectic around here. I just completed a web design project for Biblical Counseling and Ministries. I’ve also got two other projects in the works.

We decided to get Caleb a new toy to celebrate the fact that he is potty trained. Caleb and I selected the Little People Garage at Target this morning. He could gas up the cars, put them through the car wash, service them at the diagnostic center, and race them down the ramp. I knew [...]

Well, you can’t actually call me Al. I suppose you could if you wanted to, but I wouldn’t answer. However, my friend Alan Meadows will let you call him Al. Recently, Alan asked me to design a template for him to use in his personal blog site called www.youcancallmeal.com. I was happy to do it, [...]

Caleb has fallen in love with the garbage disposal. He loves it when the disposal eats the food he leaves on his plate. When he is all done he says, "All done. Sink eat it".This usually isn’t a problem until it happened on cinnamon streusel muffin morning. The guys love those muffins. Caleb was full [...]

With the recent news of Rafael Palmeiro juicin’ up, I began to wonder if juicin’ up might could improve my career and personal life. Here are a few of those thoughts.If I were juicin’ up…Then I wouldn’t need a laptop, I could just carry around my desktop tower and 21 inch behemoth of a monitor [...]
