The only significant news in recent days is that the Sox signed J.T.… Continue reading T-84 Days And Couting…

Well, it’s been some time since our last post – in fact, this is officially the first post of the New Year! Unfortunately, the whole family was under the weather for some time and there wasn’t much to write about unless you wanted to hear about all the sniffling, sneezing, coughing, and aching. Lea recovered… Continue reading Oh, There You Are!

Time to say goodbye to 2005 and ring in 2006. No Red Sox World Series title this year, but we did celebrate the birth of our daughter, Lea, which is worth an infinite number of championship titles. Here’s to another year of life and what comes with it…

While in New York this weekend, Jakob was still battling that cold and Lea eventually caught it from him on Monday. After coming home Tuesday evening, she was still coughing and sputtering but doing okay until she suddenly… Continue reading Someone Get The License Of That Truck

Well, here it is, Christmas Eve 2005 and Santa will be hitching up his sleigh in a few hours to deliver toys to all the good little girls and boys. We’re out here in upstate NY at Tiffany’s mother’s home and tomorrow we will get to enjoy dinner with all the trimmings and exchange gifts… Continue reading Merry Christmas!

Well, it’s more like that cough that makes you sound like a barking dog, but that’s what Jakob had today. We’re not sure who or where he got it from but it had him down most of today. Luckily, Children’s Tylenol works quick. He was back to his usual self in no time, i.e., he… Continue reading The Sniffles

Did I read that right? Have my eyes deceived me? Johnny Damon in pinstripes? Someone wake us up, this can’t be happening… So rather than stay and maintain that aura which had made him the toast of the town, Damon has decided that the difference of $3 million per season over four years makes it… Continue reading Strange Days, Indeed

Even though Christmas is still four days away, we got to celebrate early as Jeff’s brother Greg, his wife Becca, and the two boys, Austin and Ethan, came up from Virginia for a quick visit! After a nice dinner Tuesday evening, we exchanged gifts and watched as each kid’s toy closet get a little more… Continue reading A Wonderful Early Christmas Gift

Well, it looks like we will be dropping off the kitten at a vet’s place in Dunstable tomorrow morning. The woman from Kitty Angels will be out of town for the next few days, but we’ll be heading out of town ourselves at the end of the week and he needs attention. We’ve come to… Continue reading Bye, Bye, Kitty

So Nomar is now playing first base for the Dodgers, having signed a one-year deal with incentives to play in Los Angeles. It’s not that surprising when you consider that Garciaparra is a California boy. It makes you wonder if he’s going to be another Fred Lynn: a player whose career started with so much… Continue reading Nomar In Dodger Blue
