I’ve spent the entire day sick in bed today. The likely culprit was metal ice cream. I’ll explain later. Maybe.
Happy anniversary to us!
Today marks seven wonderful years married to my wife. From our carefree days in the UNI college dorms, to our early married days living in a tiny shack in West Des Moines, to our current life in a tiny house in a tiny rural Iowa town, with two not-so-tiny boys running our every moment. Not […]
Happy (belated) Mother’s Day!
I don’t ordinarily post on the weekends, so I didn’t get an opportunity to bid mothers everywhere a happy day of rejoicing in the fact that they exist. For those curious, this photo demonstrates how my wonderful wife chose to spend some of her special day. More pictures of her superior karting skills and the […]
Posting this photo is an absolute must
I couldn’t resist. These pictures were taken over at my sister’s house a couple of weeks ago. Does my toddler look absolutely adorable wearing novelty Hulk hands? I submit to you that he most definitely does. Not only that, but he’s got a mean right hook and could probably clean my clock with those monstrosities […]
Field trip!
Yesterday, I got to go on a field trip with my pre-kindergarten son to Living History Farms. It was a great trip, full of the amazement of experiencing new things reflected in the eyes of a child, as well as the enjoyment of listening to the wonderfully innocent and infallible humor of 5 year olds.

Recent photos: kids being adorable and a tea table
I promised my wonderful mother-in-law that I would talk about the boys more often around here. I cannot disappoint her! The results would be devastating. So, to appease all the masses interested in seeing the kids, I felt the need to highlight a couple of recent photos here. Here’s a great shot the wife took […]
Wow – traffic skyrockets due to incessant blathering
So, evidently my post on the potential Wii RPGs of 2008 is number 1 on Google in searches for “wii rpgs“. What does this mean? My traffic has been steadily increasing over the past month to the point where I’m about to break my previous attendance record. Pretty phenomenal for a silly little personal blog […]
Mommy is the best (of course)
I love to mention how amazing my wife is in all appropriate regards, and this situation is no different. She called me earlier today to say that son number 2 (who barely slept at all last night due to a hacking, barking cough) was obviously sick. More than likely some respiratory flu of some sort. […]
April banner
…brings May… …flanner? I got nothing.
The more things change…
I’ve finally altered the wave portion of the Nerdflood banner that I’ve used since the beginning of time. Or at least, since the beginning of this blog. It was done on my wife’s suggestion. She found the old one to be to rounded and messy — she considered it more of a ‘splat’ than a […]
