Now that Cole is older and well past the swaddling point, the new hotness of cool things for first time dads to experience is smiling and/or laughing in the kid’s sleep. Considering how much time I spend with him, I don’t get this as often as I sort of expect. Maybe it’s something that will [...]

Because I have a very busy life at the moment, Cole will continue to do the heavy lifting with his cuteness. Here are some recent baby developments captured in moving pictures (with sound!) First, we found the tongue ejection button on Cole: Then we tried to rot his brain with our iPad and the Uzu [...]

Trying to get really good video of this kid is like trying to get footage of Sasquach. Or Al Gore being charismatic. Cole is typically mesmerized by the camera, he will just stop what he’s doing and watch it, halting all screeching, pterodactyl-like laughter dead. I swear I will get good footage of this one [...]

Our little man is two months old today. I didn’t think I would be the sort of dad who took special note of things like this, but here I am, all sappy and stuff. The days are long, but the months truly are short.

I’m sure there will be more of Cosby on here, besides being one of the best standups to ever work a crowd ever (just ask most people) he does great material on fatherhood. When I was a kid, my parents and I would do this bit into the ground. I don’t think I ever got [...]

Don’t mind the melodramatic tone I put forward in this video. I am not worried this will be my last video for this, but man, I am indeed scared after seeing the place up close. Most of the structures are a bit smaller than I expected, and a couple were shockingly more fearsome up close [...]

When Christine and I were planning my itinerary, Bath was towards the end of my trip.  Now, my ADD affliction makes it hard to see pretty much anything through to the end, especially something like planning, something that Christine adores and that I loathe. I would like to think that by the time we reached [...]

I was excited about my “train day” through Wales. Getting up early after a good night’s sleep, I headed out to catch my 6:30am to Crewe. Turns out, it was a 5:50am to Crewe. Undaunted, I waited patiently for the 8am train in the cold, listening to Hanz Zimmer’s score for the boxing show “The [...]
