      • Rain, Rain, Go Away
        05/30/06
        The weather this Memorial Day weekend was pretty poopy. It rained all weekend. And, since my $800 van has a hole in the roof, it rained inside my van too. Well, a little duct tape fixed that though! Aside from the weather, here are some of my thoughts from this weekend:

      • 80% Solution
        05/26/06
        I put some videos of Nathan online since a bunch of people have been asking for them. Right now, its' the 80% solution. It's not a pretty page by any means. I'm trying to figure out how I want the page to look, so right now they're just up there. Also, they're not meant

      • Crawling
        05/24/06
        Yup, last night Nathan decided that he wanted to start crawling. He was making the littlest steps and then he'd fall over and that was it. Well, he must've been thinking about it all night, because when he woke up this morning, he was crawling like he'd been doing it his whole life!

        Nathan Loves Rice. Period. End of blog entry. Just kidding, I'll bore you to death with a little bit more info :). So Nathan and I spent the day together without Mama because she was at a baby shower for our neighbor. We attempted to try a new taco stand on the sea wall to determine if it

      • Transit Cafe
        05/19/06
        Last night we went to the Transit Cafe for dinner. I had $200 in Yen in my wallet, so we knew we could go anywhere! Of course Lisa's immediate choice was Ono Kau Kau, which is her favorite restaurant on the island. On our way there, however, she remembered that we wanted to try this place ca

      • What NMCI has taught me
        05/15/06
        For the uninitiated, NMCI is the Navy and Marine Corps Intranet. NMCI is the bane of my existance. It's all of our computer and networking related stuff outsourced to a private contracting company named EDS. Really, there's nothing Marine Corps about it. We got forced into this by the

      • Mother's Day
        05/14/06
        Happy Mother's Day! I was hoping that today would be as beautiful as yesterday, but it wasn't. Oh well, we made the best of it. Nathan and I gave Lisa her card this morning. Now she has a set of 9 month old hand and feet prints!!! She got some other nick nacks along the way this morni

      • It's A Trap
        05/12/06
        Over the last couple of days, Lisa and I have been talking about discipline a lot more. It's now the time to start saying "no" to Nathan and making sure he understands that he needs to do what we ask him. For example, when we're changing his diaper, he just wants to roll over a

      • Bad Parents
        05/08/06
        Boy did Lisa and I feel like bad parents this morning. Lisa was up most of the night with Nathan because he's now sick too. It gets hard during the times when he's super fussy and last night was certainly one of those times. After thinking about it during the drive into work this mornin

      • Early Get Up...Again!
        05/06/06
        I'm not gonna bore you with another recounting of how the early mornings are going. Nedless to say, we were up at 4:30am today :)

        Nathan was getting really really really fussy around 8:30am, so I was holding him and stuff. Next thing ya know, we both started to dose off. And the

      • The Routine
        05/05/06
        You know you're a parent when every day is exactly the same as the last one because that's how your son and dog like it :) Here's my view on our family routine. Lisa's is obviously different because she spends 24/7 with those two hoodlums. Nathan currently wakes up around midn

      • Dragon Boat Races
        05/05/06
        Well, we didn't get to the dragon boat races yesterday like I had hoped. Reason number one, Lisa was sick, so she would've been miserable. Reason number two was because I was working and we didn't want to take a day of leave for it this year when next year it will fall on a Saturday

      • Yes, Nathan's Awake!!!
        05/05/06
        Well, it's 6:12am on Saturday morning and Nathan and I have been up for an hour already! This is getting old really quickly. Maybe this is what everyone means when they say that you don't really ever sleep for the first year or so? What's worse is that the new episode of The Office

      • I'm now the MAG S-6
        05/04/06
        So, this last Monday I started my new job as the S-6 of a Marine Air Group. What does that mean? Well...mostly it means that I pissed someone off somewhere along the line and they screwed me over. Yes, I'm a principal staff officer to a Colonel, but I have only 4 Marines working for me and n

        Well, it's 5:30am for all you early risers out there. Nathan and I have been up for about an hour already playing downstairs. Our son is very special because he does not require sleep!! He still needs to eat twice during the middle of the night AND he's waking up around the 5:00am time
