Photo Album

Click to see the whole albumPhotos - This evening I did a major cleaning out of the camera's storage. These pictures cover the first half of April. A large number include the kids with the train set. There's also several of the kids in the yard this afternoon. Little Kyle also makes a cameo.

Abigail - Michelle took Abby for her screening for first grade. The meeting went well and the counselor thought Abby was well prepared for starting first grade next September. Michelle told me some of Abby's interesting responses. My favorite was her answer to what she likes to do at home. "I like to work on my seasonal craft books." Not your typical five year old response.

Dinner - Last night we did another trial run of bringing the family out for dinner. We called ahead an order to Besta One Pizza (down the street) so that there'd be no wait once we got there. Claire's friend, Madison, also joined us. When we arrived we looked a bit like "Cheaper by the Half Dozen". The boys behaved pretty well and we can try this again soon.

Just bookmark the homepage. If you have an old bookmark, delete it and re-bookmark. It should look like a little blue script 'B'. Nothing too fancy but I thought it a bit cute. On some browsers it also shows up on the address bar.

It also removed a few '404 - not found' messages from my web server's log files as many browsers automatically ask for this to use it if it's available. Once I put it there, they cache it locally on the user's hard drive and stop asking.

I'll keep my eyes open for it. I just picked her up a copy of "Dora the Explorer: Backpack Adventure" on CD-ROM. I was at the local Mac store (MacEdge) picking up a wireless keyboard and mouse to replace the ones on the iMac. Our iMac's mouse was dying anyway so I thought going wireless might help us keep the keyboard and mouse away from the boys.
