This morning it was 36°F when I woke up, five degrees below the record low for today. So far, it’s been a year of extremes, with record cold in February, record heat throughout the summer, and now record cold again. Since we had record drought this summer, I’m beginning to wonder if we’ll have immense[...]
Since we’ve been back from Oklahoma, Autumn finally arrived here. We’ve been seeing highs in the upper 80s and lows in the 60s. In a couple of days, we’ll switch over to Texas’ version of “winter”, which means lows in the 40s and highs in the 60s. Maybe a little rain. Rebecca continues to master[...]

We combined Rebecca’s first birthday with her second trip to Oklahoma, and we had a blast despite several negative factors. (1 image after the jump)
After several days of Rebecca walking, this is the first video I was able to get. She kept avoiding the camera until I sneaked up on her. (1 video after the jump)
Finally, the rain! Yesterday afternoon, it finally rained enough for Rebecca to really see, feel, and experience it. And then during the night it began raining again at 1:30 a.m. or so, and hasn’t weakened yet. And we have more thunderstorms predicted for the next couple of days. After that, sunny and warm for a[...]
Thursday, we made a day trip to Sweet Berry Farm — just outside of Marble Falls, Texas. (5 images and links to 93 images after the jump)
A week from today, Rebecca will be one year old. Wow. Has it really been a year? Yes. And it feels like an entire lifetime.
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).
Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]

A few days ago, we passed what I’ve jokingly called “the Rebecca threshold” with our Benjamin pregnancy. She was born about 7 weeks before her due date. As of May 10, we passed that point in the current pregnancy. My wife’s at 34 weeks as of today, and about nine pounds lighter than she was[...]

Rebecca woke with a dry diaper this morning and kept her panties dry all day, using her potty correctly all day. We spent the day shifting from (1) us asking if she needed to go to (2) her telling us when she needed to go. And, after three days of holding it, she went #2[...]
Rebecca kept her diaper dry all morning, while MF was at work, and then wore panties the rest of the day, keeping them dry too. She even surprised us by staying dry during a supper trip to Dairy Queen (she had requested an ice cream cone). We put a diaper on her for the trip[...]
Big Milestone: Rebecca is now Three Feet Tall. Not quite tall enough for the WNBA, but on her way. She also crossed the 27-pound threshold for the first time (that we know of; we haven’t weighed her in a while). She’s 2.58 years (31 months) old. Compared to me: My mother didn’t record my height[...]
I woke up early today (because I went to bed on time last night?) and thought that would give me a little more time before RLF awoke. No — her new waking cycle is somehow tied to mine. Perhaps she hears the coffee-maker — I think I’m otherwise very quiet when I get up. She[...]
