conversations with invisible pigs and sheep

In the time of Facebook, the blog gets ignored. So let’s see what’s happened in the last few weeks…

We (I) got the upstairs hall painted right before Thanksgiving. It looks great, and it’s so nice to finally have color up there. Can’t wait to get the rest of the foyer painted. Still have one vents to put back and have pictures to hang.

Dad re-configured the living room including the “media” furniture. It has more of a media center appearance, keeps all the equipment cool AND out of reach, and we still have toy storage. Overall, it is just nice.

I’ve almost Christmas shopping. Got a great deal on a Flip Ultra camera. Thought I might let Jim try it out. Here’s the first video I made:

from the video that sits in the camera for months….

I finally got the video edited and up…

Jim reading to Colin. Notice at the end how Colin pitches in, and this makes Jim upset.

The fiftieth try to get this video up:

From July…

I’m trying to get the video of Jim’s first day up. Here’s Colin demonstrating his mad slide skillz:

It’s the much heralded baby entertainment device, and why it looked like a recycling bucket exploded in the back of my car for six months…

This is our first Easter where we actually get todo Easter stuff with the boy. Last night we dyed eggs, and this morning the boy got an Easter basket, which was a real hit. The Easter bunny brought him stickers, Pez dispensers, an empty M&M man, Peeps and a chocolate bunny. The big surprise treat was an egg that held a matchbox/Tyco car of cookie monster driving a school bus.
