Things about my life.
Just got back inside from another hour out in the snow. They snow has stopped falling, and we’ve got the driveway all cleaned off. Looks like we got about 5″ of snow total. The sledding was still great! The snow packed down very nicely to make some little trails that were pretty fast runs. We [...]
We are having some of the best snow we’ve ever had right now. It’s light and fluffy stuff that makes great snowballs and snowmen. It’s also slick enough that it is good for sledding as well. Kate, the kids, and I had a great time this morning playing and shoveling and making snowmen and sledding [...]
My parents made it up for the afternoon, so Xander was happy about that. We went to pick him up from school around 3pm. They did the little walk around the sun that they do birthdays there for him. After that we loaded up and headed for the Dulles Sport Plex. Xander had a soccer [...]
Xander’s Birthday is today. We’ve got a soccer party planned for the afternoon, I’ll talk about that tonight or tomorrow. I just wanted to take a quick moment to reflect on the day. It’s amazing how fast 7 years go by. I’m a very involved Dad, I think most people would agree. Even with that [...]
We made it out of the house. Got the car past the ice and even got it back in the driveway when we made it back home.
Overnight Tuesday night was an ice storm like I’ve never seen. We got a couple of inches of ice on top of the snow that had already fallen. It’s been a mess. Kate and I went out and shoveled some of it Wednesday, but it was so cold and windy that we decided to put [...]
Xander’s second bottom front tooth is a little bit loose today. Just a tiny bit, but it is clearly on the way out.
So the big storm didn’t hit overnight like they expected, so the kids were off to school this morning with it snowing outside. Kate and I went together and dropped them off. Then we headed to Target to look for a copy of Wiiplay because it comes with an extra Wii controller, which is very [...]

I’ve gotten a Wii now! Kate went out this morning to Target and waited in line while I watched the kids and picked one up for me. She did it instead of me so she could use out 10% off card at Target. It’s currently sitting downloading the system update. I’m looking forward to getting [...]
Xander’s loose tooth just came out! We were getting ready to walk out the door for school and Xander asked me to check his tooth before we left. I did, and it was very close to coming out. So rather than risk him losing it during the day at school and actually losing it, we [...]
No school today! I’ll be working from home, of course. Looks like we got about 2″ of snow outside. I’ll measure it when we get all bundled up later this morning to play in it. Kids are home and excited.
We’ve got a light snow falling outside right now. They say we may get an inch or two total, we’ll just have to wait and see.
At the moment it’s 10°F outside with a wind chill of -3°F The are expecting the temperature to get down to around 3°F overnight.
Xander has his first loose tooth! He’s very excited. The last week or so, he’s been talking about the fact that his friends at school has loose or missing teeth. He was feeling a little bit left out about the whole thing. We talked with him about it and explained to him that he got [...]
