You may remember that a couple weeks ago Liam started using the potty. It was pretty hit and miss, mostly miss. Since the weather’s been cold as of late, I haven’t even tried recently. Then, two nights ago, Liam decided by himself that he wanted to use the potty before bed. [...]
I took my last two final exams today. Physics II and Industrial Electronics. Physics was a lark. I mean a real walk in the park. I mean simple physics. The toughest question was a Lorentz contraction problem. ooohhh. Piece of cake. The electronics course was no harder, [...]

I’m sure there are other words he’s added since I last updated the “he speaks” category. The words kind of slip in under our radar — all of a sudden he’s adden another word. His favorite word right now is “tower.” There’s a water tower [...]

Nature boy hit the garden today. Note the bare nekkid legs. He was especially dutiful in making sure to get the grass under the hedge.
Today was a pretty exciting day for Liam: he actually peed in the potty for the first time! And this afternoon he ran around the back garden without any britches, watering the flowers. I’d post pics of his cute little tushie, but it won’t be too many years before he’s towering over me [...]
I’m getting ready to finish my first day at Northwood, UK. We had a bit of a busy day, but not too bad. I have to go straight to the Senior NCO Mess after work to make it in time for supper. Then, back to my very small room to do [...]
Sorry, I had a brain shart (those who don’t get it — you’re not supposed to). I forgot that I needed to resize the pics before uploading them.
Being cute doesn’t give you a free ride in this household, you know. Liam has to work to earn his keep. Here he is doing [...]
