ummm... let's see... what have i've been up to? (this one's for pg)

it's been a bit frustrating lately. i've been putting in quite a few hours and with the lack of results it has yielded, i kind of feel like this is all i've been doing...


yeah well...



thanks be to pg for the swift kick in the ass he sent my way letting me know, that i do still have a blog. albeit a very sad and dust laden blog, i do in fact have one.

so i leave you with yet another empty promise of more posts filled with incredible insights that will change life as you know it. i'm sure many of you will be holding your breath-on the edge of your seat-while wiping the beads of sweat from your brow as you wait for my next words of wisdom.

until then...

an attempt to save cyberface...

excuse the cloud. that's not smoke from your motherboard but rather the dust from my blog. anyway, i just wanted to check in with my readership of 6 and let you few know that i'm not dead or pissed off or whatever rumors are floating around about me and my lack of a blog. without my ass in a cubicle chair for 8hrs a day i have found that keeping up with anything "interwebs" other than life sustaining emails have proven practically impossible. but what kind of excuse is that right?

really though, i quit my day job to pursue a passion and i have to say it's moving along quite nicely. i have had to put my head down and just move forward while a serious busta rhymes' playmix pushes me along. i wish i could give more insight but for now all i can divulge is that jp's kicking out some killer logos and we hired the most amazing chef. i have high hopes of creating a blog to accompany this endeavor but don't hold your breath.

i just don't want the parent blog world to think i haven't been thinking about you guys or that i don't have a daughter any longer or any such nonsense. because i do and she is so 2.5 and crazy and i'm still reading you guys on the regular.

brian, i agree! apparently brian's family and ours share similar taste in eating establishments.

pg is still gettin' it done. nice work brother.

and come on, if you can get an f. scott reference in a post about your half naked boys in a sandbox you totally deserve props!

seriously, they take some of the best vacations. except THEY STILL OWE US A VISIT HERE IN AUSTIN. but really, who's keeping track?

need i say anything at about this guy and his ability to capture humor and emotion? by the way x, i think you might make a scary woman in the looks department.

and that's just to mention a few.

oh well.

life is like a box of... um... well... wet soggy potato chips. somehow the disturbing texture and off putting taste eventually becomes a craving if you eat enough of them enough days in a row.

it's official, my ol'lady is now of proper age to wear that title with dignity. today she turns 31!

happy birthday honey!

i love you and i baked a cake!

thank you to all

this year's march for babies was a huge success and we had a great time. i want to take a moment to thank all the people who walked with us and to those who contributed. if you get a moment head over to my flickr page and check out the set from the walk.

great weekends=tolerable mondays

for those of you who have experienced a texas summer you know how unbearable they can be. with that said, this weekend was one of the few that made you never want to go back in doors. so we did as much as we could out of doors.

saturday we hung out with fellow parent blogger and interwebs phenom jonathon morgan, his special lady friend and completely adorable daughter little e. the girls played with a new water toy calli just got and were very cute while the adults indulged in a bit of afternoon refreshment. not a bad way to spend a satruday.

on sunday, after taking calli to one of her favorite parks, we headed over to my sister's house to see the new deck she and her better half put in. the backyard looks great with the new deck and all the new landscaping they did. i was so impressed i fired up the grill and threw on some fajitas and whipped up a batch of killer mexican martinis. another successful day out of doors in central texas.

we know the non-100-degree-days are few and far between so we made sure we didn't let these couple pass us by. it made heading into monday not such a bad thing this week.
