The Drip
Last week my wife started having contractions. At a future time in the pregnancy this could be an exciting sign of things to come, however, last week was too early to have contractions. Slightly panicked we rushed off to the hospital. After an initial check-up from our doctor it was decided that we needed to [...]
I’ve Got a Feeling
Most men fail when it comes to sharing their feelings. Even women who we astutely stereotype to be the “feelers” of society may struggle with sharing their feelings. However, every coin has two sides. On the opposite side of that coin for most men is the side where men are awesome at sharing their anger. [...]
My Baby
Although the ultrasound did not quite turn out as we had planned (our session was cut short, we didn’t get what was advertised and our baby wouldn’t cooperate) we were able to get some new pictures in 4-d of our baby Alexis Grace due the first week of May. Amazing what technology can do now [...]

Let’s Make a Deal – Part 1
Tomorrow (Friday February 5, 2010) my wife and I will be on Let’s Make A Deal. In late December my wife and I ventured out to tape an episode of the show. I can’t really say much about it until after it airs, but I will give you a preview of the costume I wore: [...]
Happy Birthday Ashley!
3 years ago yesterday . . . I nervously drove from Park City to Las Vegas for the first time to meet a certain young lady I had met through a Christian dating website. I pulled into her driveway and was scared to death. “Would she look as beautiful in person? Would she be as [...]
