What a magnificent year! Nothing this year was more significant to us than being Rebecca’s parents. It was her first full calendar year of life, and her activities consumed almost all of our energy, thoughts, and emotion. In a year’s time, she went from being a two-month-old helpless infant to being a 14-month-old toddler with[...]
Today was the first day of Oklahoma’s lottery. No, I haven’t bought a ticket yet, but I plan to, just to show my support for the idea. Also, this morning, it was quite foggy in Seminole… Here’s a pic of the sun, as it rose over Seminole’s Municipal Park and the Little League ball parks[...]
Have made some progress on Connors stories. After outlining them all, I picked the episode of Billy Connors’ time machine for the first novel. Then I made a rough outline of the story. Sunday night and most of the day Monday, I worked on writing that story. I’ve already written about 10,000 words on it,[...]

This video is is cuter without sound (I forgot to mute the TV before recording). Rebecca was proud that she drinks out of a glass now, without spilling: (Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.)
Flickr did their biggest change ever this evening. There’s a little more about that on my other blog. I’m seriously considering ending my eight-year relationship with Flickr. If only there were another decent place to share photos (and remember, I said “decent”, so no one suggest Facebook). Rebecca worked on learning my limits again today.[...]
WEATHER: 72-93°F, mostly cloudy RLF requested the playground today, after a few weeks of not going, so I said okay. She wouldn’t walk there; only rode in the stroller. And only played there for about five minutes before she was ready to come home. (This is why we’d quit going in the first place.) She[...]
➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
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[...]
