I decided to focus a little more on video to capture those moments that I don’t have the words to convey. Apparently I was without words for most of the last two years. But since I’m not a baby book, first tooth, locks of hair, hope chest, scrapbooking kind of mom, I decided I need to focus on keeping the memories where I am comfortable. And that’s here. On the internets.

So I’m back at it in earnest. And I’m opening it up for the world to watch/read/comment. But I’m assuming most of the world won’t care. So, HI MOM. And hi to all of my friends and family who might be interested in my little guy’s antics. There’s nothing controversial here. But maybe we can make it funny. Or cheeky. And smart sometimes. We’l see.

For now, check out Mack the chef. And stay tuned.

Happy Dude

I woke up one day recently and discovered that my son is a person. He’s not a baby any more. And he’s more than that generic term they give all toddling creatures. He’s more than a toddler. He’s a little guy. A little person. Other people notice it too. Here’s what I know about this little person — he’s funny. He’s a hambone. He likes to stop dead in his tracks when he hears a tune he digs, and then without skipping a beat he bends way over and shakes his badonkadonk like he means business. This boy knows how to GET DOWN.
