First, a random shot of Xavier as he is wearing August’s jacket. We were rushing to get out the house to pick up August, Déla and Ciárán from school and couldn’t immediately find his. Then we come to the weekend and Xavier and August went with me to the store. Both Xavier and August wanted…
There is a list of things my kids love. Phineas And Ferb. Super heroes. Ice cream. LEGOs. Also on that list are the Star Wars and Angry Birds franchises. When it was found out these two things were combined a bit of pandemonium broke out in the house. Over time things calmed down, but the…
Plenty has happened in the last week, not the least of which was Xavier staying home for 3 days from preschool due to his being sick. Here are a few of the other highlights from the past week. Friday was the Cross Country Pumpkin Run, an event that is supposed to come at the end…

This means, if history is any indication, we’re going to have our…
For years we have been saying we would go. BrickCon is a LEGO convention held annual in Seattle and August has wanted to go ever since he became aware of it something like 5 years ago. Because of other commitments we were unable to stay more than a couple of hours. It was enough to…
I know it’s late. I’m going to post this entry that should have been posted on the 4th, and this coming Friday I’ll have another entry. I’ve been sick and not getting much sleep, been busy with … stuff. Nothing important, really. On with the pictures. On Sunday the 29th of September the kids had…
