Another Lee Girl

We got a call from Renee’s sister Marsha today.  They went in for an ultrasound and found out that they’re having another girl.  At least they already have girl stuff.  She’s due in January.  Poor Paul – he’s surrounded by women (even Chelsea the Wonder Dog used to be a girl).  I’m not sure if [...]

Glasses!

Ian got his glasses today.  He’s having a hard time keeping them on his face because he doesn’t have much of a nose to hold them up.  Plus, we got them a little big so we wouldn’t have to buy new ones in 2 months. He hasn’t done too badly with them – he does tend [...]

First Bike Ride

Last weekend, I installed the bike seat back onto my bike, and we took Ian on his first bike ride around the neighborhood.  We had beautiful weather – not too hot or humid.  I think he liked it!

Cub Scouts

Collin got dressed up in his Cub Scout uniform this past weekend for the first time this year.  He’s a Wolf Cub this year, and I’m helping to lead his Wolf Cub Den.  I think he’s managed to recruit at least a couple of his friends to join this year, so he’ll get a recruiter [...]

Windows Live Writer

I downloaded this cool tool today, called Windows Live Writer.  This tool lets you compose a blog entry in true WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) format.  And you can use it with many popular blogging sites (not just Windows Live).  I’m writing this entry now on Windows Live Writer, and it looks just like what the finished product will, right [...]

A Fresh Start…

…and a new routine begin today -Collin started school.  He is now an official second grader!  I went in with him to find his classroom this morning, although I’m sure he could have found it on his own – it’s just something we parents do to embarrass our kids.  A lot of his friends are in [...]

Grandkids!

We took a picture of Grandma & Grandpa Johnson will all their grandkids at the party yesterday.  It’s the first time we’ve had them all together at the same time.  The grandkids, left to right:  Novelle (16 months), Collin (7 years), Tyler (2 months), and Ian (10 months).  I think you can figure out which [...]

Baptism

Renee and Collin both got baptized yesterday.  Renee has been a Christian for a long time, but had just never been baptized (and, as a result, was an “illegal” member of our church).  Collin decided that he wanted to be baptized, too.  Due to their fear of getting their faces wet, though, they didn’t get [...]

Another Lehrian in Glasses

How can this baby get any cuter?
Put glasses on him!

We took Ian down to Indy to the pediatric eye doctor yesterday.  An intern did all the initial tests, and as soon as the doctor came in, she knew what his problem was.  He’s got an eye turn, and is a little far-sighted (just like me).  [...]

Cub Scouts

Along with school starting next week, Collin also starts Cub Scouts again.  This year he’s a Wolf.  I am helping to lead his Wolf Den along with a friend of mine, Aaron.  Collin is in Pack 3426.  I’ve completed the initial design of a web site for the pack (see it at www.pack3426.com).  Hopefully, co-leading [...]
