What a game by New England today at Foxboro against the mighty Tampa Bay Bucs. Even with temperatures below 40°C, which historically spells a loss for Tampa in years past, and a chance to clinch the division at home in front of a boistorous crowd, an easy win was not expected. Instead, the Patriots scored… Continue reading Tom Terrific and The Mighty Pats

One of our dear friends offered to watch the two kids this evening while we went and saw King Kong at the local cinema. As I have seen the original movie from 1933, Peter Jackson (same guy who directed the Rings trilogy) did a nice job staying somewhat true to the original, with some obvious… Continue reading Kong!

Yesterday afternoon, Tiffany was home tooling around the house when she heard some cries coming from the deck outside the side door. Turns out that there was a little orange tiger cat (kitten, actually) freezing itself out there. Luckily for us, we have the Have-A-Heart trap because the kitten would not allow Tiffany to come… Continue reading Lost His Mittens

It was only yesterday that Bill Mueller scorched a single between Mariano Rivera‘s legs in Game Four of the 2004 ALCS and pushed Dave Roberts across the plate, setting up what became the most improbable comeback ever in baseball playoff history. Now, as the Sox set sail in a new direction, another one of the… Continue reading Goodbye, Billy Mill, and Thanks!

She’s officially three months old today – time flies!

We sat down for dinner at home the other night and included on our plates were salt potatoes (an upstate New York summer staple). Jakob took one look at them and said: “Rocks.” He also wouldn’t try them. Now, isn’t that a terrible commentary on Mommy’s cooking? *lol*

Boston Red Sox President/CEO Larry Lucchino announced last night that, to replace former GM Theo Epstein, the Sox have promoted Ben Cherington and Jed Hoyer, two former Epstein understudies, to co-general managers. Our only thought is: when they come to an impasse on a personnel decision, will they use paper-rock-scissors? Best two-out-of-three? Well, with the… Continue reading Sox Will Have Co-GMs

We played around with the site a bit this evening and did update the header so that it rotates between about two dozen choices, including ones with the kids as well as some random shots that we’ve taken over the years. We are still working on adding recent photos to the mix, too, as well… Continue reading Photos Are Coming…

Friday came and there was talk of snowfall in the area, perhaps six to ten inches, and we ended up with sixteen total. The interesting part was that it all came down in what seemed like a matter of minutes. Jeff had to run down to City Hall for a building permit so that he… Continue reading Snow Day!

Miss Lea cut her first tooth! The other night she was having trouble sleeping; perhaps that was the reason? It appears to be one of her eye teeth, right side, bottom jaw. That puts her first tooth at 12 weeks, about two weeks earlier than Jakob when he cut his first. By eight months he… Continue reading Lea’s First Tooth!
