We’re related!

I added a new feature to my picture pages last night — a listing of related photos.   Now when you click on the photo of me with a parrot on my shoulder in Machiques Venezuela, you’ll also see a thumbnail version of me standing on the model of the solar system in the same […]

More shilling

Sarah has another new web site!  This one is called HappyHeadbands.com — and as you may have guessed, she sells headbands.   They’re really cool, with velcro on the back to keep them from slipping.   She sells her head bands online at http://www.happyheadbands.com for just $5 each! And another client web site to mention […]

Sarah’s Buzzing! (or, Pimping Buzz About Baby)

Sarah has launched a web-based business called Buzz About Baby, selling crafty things that she has created — nursing covers (a.k.a. Hooter Hiders or Knocker Blockers), binky clips, grab-and-go diaper holders, taggy ribbon toys for babies, and no-slip headbands. Her prices are much lower than any other place she’s found online. Her web site is […]

California Dreaming

This week, our vacation is driving to Sarah’s sister Lynn’s house in California to pick up her three kids for the summer. They’ll be staying at our house and with their other Utah relatives for a couple of months. We borrowed Judy’s van and packed up our kids on Tuesday morning for the ride. Tuesday, […]

Fun facts about the apostles – video

Barb Smith at work showed me this video and I had to pass it on: a fun song to help you learn a little more about the LDS apostles. Some of the stuff they picked out was pretty lame (“Quentin L. Cook is from Cache Valley” — woo!) but overall it’s worth the minute of […]

I married a handy girl! (or, The story of the swing set)

Sarah has always been very resourceful, which has been a great complement to my inherent cheapness during our marriage. Last fall, as she was going to visit her sister Becca in Sandy, she saw a swing set by the side of the road. She wanted it and she got it, even if it meant carrying […]

Spewing Audrey Out

Audrey has never been a big fan of hot meals. Since she was a baby, we’ve had to put her food in the freezer after it’s pulled out of the oven before she’d eat it. (For a while, she even thought the blessing on the food was so that her food could get cold.) But […]

Goodbye Greasemonkey

I’ve taken down the Greasemonkey userscript section of this web site. I found that not even I was using it — uploading the files to userscripts.org was much easier and useful. So now the link above redirects to my list of scripts at userscripts.org.

For all the Robby Reporters out there

So Wendy Weather will own wendyweather.com, Steve Sportscaster will own stevesportscaster.com and they’ll both set themselves apart from the […]

And baby makes four

This morning Sarah woke up at 2:15 with pretty strong contractions. She got me up soon after, and we called for Becca (her sister and doula) to come help with the labor. We looked out the window and saw that it had snowed quite a bit overnight, so the roads were pretty bad. Becca and […]
