Ah, the busy life of a modern homeowner: making phone calls, dealing with the mail, and doing some washing up: Meanwhile, outside the house, Emmy ponders whether it would be worth the effort to huff and puff, or if trying to blow the house down would just get her scolded. This isn’t the greatest Appa-for-scale… Continue reading Thursday Toddler Blogging 070110

Hold On to Your Hat…
… because SteelyKid is a baby on the move, and she moves fast: SteelyKid spent a long weekend with Kate’s mom, and we went down there yesterday to pick her up. This picture, snapped during a playground visit this morning, gives you some idea of her energy level. Accordingly, Kate and I are both exhausted.… Continue reading Hold On to Your Hat…
Thursday Absent Baby Blogging
SteelyKid is spending a long weekend with Kate’s mother, so we are baby-less. Which means no Appa-for-scale picture this week, alas. Since I know some of you would freak out without the weekly cute-baby photo, though, here’s another shot from the backyard playhouse: As you can tell, Kate has an ever-so-slightly easier time fitting into… Continue reading Thursday Absent Baby Blogging
Chateau SteelyKid
I’ve made a few oblique references to home improvement projects over the last week or so. These weren’t for our house, but for SteelyKid’s– Kate’s mom got her a playhouse for Christmas, which we finally got around to installing in the back yard. SteelyKid has taken right to home ownership: Don’t let her studied cool… Continue reading Chateau SteelyKid

No elaborate pose this week, just simple, classic Baby Blogging: A few months back, her weight had failed to increase as quickly as expected, so she had a couple of weight-check appointments scheduled. The latest was this week, when it was discovered that she had gained about three pounds since the last check-up (the proportional… Continue reading Thursday Baby Blogging 061710

Kate was away last Thursday, and just got back yesterday, so this is the first time in a week that all of us have been together. In honor of that, we’ll break out the fancy camera remote technology for a group portrait (a Baby Blogging first!) Emmy snuck into the lower left corner of the… Continue reading Thursday Happy Family Blogging 061010
Thursday Baby Blogging 060310
I sometimes get comments asking why so many of the baby blogging pictures are taken from above. The answer is twofold: 1) I’m rather tall, and thus it’s hard for me to get down to baby level to take pictures straight on, and 2) when I do try to get down to baby level, most… Continue reading Thursday Baby Blogging 060310
Bird Blogging
Looking for something else, I was reminded of some pictures I took a week or two ago. This one came out pretty well: This also reminds me that it’s a really nice day here in Niskayuna, and I shouldn’t be spending it all at the computer. So, enjoy the bird picture, and I’ll post something… Continue reading Bird Blogging
Thursday Substitute Baby Blogging 052710
Kate here with two pictures of SteelyKid at play. Here’s one from last night in which she is beginning to realize the difficulties with her plan: (Very shortly after this, she solved the problem by demanding that I put my sandals back on, and then leading me around by one hand while she pushed her… Continue reading Thursday Substitute Baby Blogging 052710

How did my day of solo SteelyKid wrangling go, you ask? I can sum it up in one picture: She’s quite a handful…
