Ethan @ One

Time for an Ethan Update! I can't believe it's been a year. It only seemed like yesterday that Evelyn met Ethan for the first time when we brought him home. It has been a rough year, learning that juggling two kids is much more difficult than

Evelyn @ 2.7

It's been a while since I wrote about Evelyn. Partly because of work and house stuff, but mostly because both Ethan and Evelyn has been keeping us well occupied over the last few months. While I was going through the photos for Ethan's post, I rewatched

Introducing... Ethan!

Helen and I welcomed Ethan into the world. After a few hours of labor and few minutes of crazy scream pushing, Ethan took his first breath of air. Yes, I know it's been about 10 months. It's been really busy with lots of changes to everything

Year One! + 4 months...

I had prepared a big Year One post at the first year and started writing before my schedule kinda went to crap. I never got the chance to finish the post but I will post what I had written so far and update it with with the last 4 months.

Thoughts on the Microsoft Surface Pro 3

Recently, I had the chance to decide on my next work machine and the options were narrowed down to 2 for me. A more powerful typical touch screen ultrabook with more ram or a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 (SP3). As the machines provisioned for us are meant to be used

Stokke MyCarrier & MyCarrier Cool

As a gadget geek, you can expect that my enthusiasm will spill over to baby gear as well. Once I found out that we were expecting, I did quite a bit of research into the vast array of gadgets that are available for parents. There is just so much information

9, 10, and 11 Months!

We are now at Month 11! With winter hopefully receding (it keeps coming back!!!), we are looking forward to the next few months! This is a combination post as I realized that I will likely not catch up if I keep posting single backdated posts. So with this, I am

Google Glass: Thoughts So Far

Over the last little while, I have been asked to do a surveys from Google about using Glass for the last few months. Since I was writing that up, I figure that I'd post some of my thoughts and questions on Google Glass so far here on this

8 Months!

Month 8. This is another backdated post because I didn't have a chance to actually write a post until now. You can have a look at the previous backfill post here. Bandwidth warning, this post will have lots of pictures after the jump. Christmas! It was Evelyn'

Evelyn

7 Months!

Month 7. As of month 7, there were a few changes. This is a backdated post because I didn't have a chance to actually write a post until now. With the move and everything that went on, it was extremely busy. I finally got a chance to sit

My Google Glass Adventure Starts Here

Google Glass [http://www.google.com/glass] is one of the next big things in technology. It is disruptive and it creates a whole new world of possibilities and applications. I have been waiting for something like this for many years... Ever since I was a little kid sitting through

Evelyn

6 Months!

Here are some updates from the last month: * Locomotion - Evelyn's primary method of locomotion is rolling/crawling. Last month it was primiarily rolling, but this month, she is beginning to crawl. When she sees something she wants, she reaches for it and if it still interests her

Evelyn

5 Months!

Another month flies by, Evelyn is growing up so fast. A bunch of our friends all recently had kids (Congrats to JT, JS, AW, LC, NG!), and seeing the pictures of their little ones brings back the memories of when Evelyn was a new orn. While we miss her being

Evelyn

Four Months!

With four months under our belts, it is amazing to think that a third of Evelyn's first year has already gone by. Thinking back on it, I feel like that it went by really fast and slow at the same time. I think I feel this way because

Evelyn

3 Months!

And with that, we are a week or so over 3 months! I think I have to reiterate that these last three months has been one of the most trying times in my life. There were many challenges to overcome, not because of Evelyn herself, she has been good (most

The Art of Changing Diapers

I have been wanting to post this for a while now, but I never got around to it until now. When we were still new to changing diapers, we had tried a variety of different ways to do it. In the end, you are really just trying to do the

Chromecast Review

Here is a quick little review of Google's new Chromecast device. It's my first tech review, so I look forward to reading some comments! When Google announced "Chromecast", I ordered one immediately. It wasn't because I am a Google fan (well, I

Two Months!

I just wanted to let everyone know that everything is ok. I haven't been able to sit down and write for the last couple of weeks because its been so busy. But I managed to pull away for a quick second to put this post up. It'

Just How Tired Am I?

Since Evelyn was born, sleep has been a scarce commodity. There are really 5 things that newborns do: Sleep, Eat, Burp (and spit-up), Number 1, and Number 2. Your sleep schedule runs entirely on providing services that support those 5 functions. When a baby is crying at you anywhere from

Happy Father's Day! 2013

To all the fathers out there, Happy Father's Day! I came across some nice Father's Day quotes today and I thought I'd share one that I liked: > A dad is someone who wants to catch you before you fall but instead picks you

Week 2 - Of forgetfulness and always being late...

With the blink of an eye, the second week of parenthood is over. This week was a bit more challenging as my vacation time was over and I had to get myself back to a regular schedule. It isn't that bad, with the exception of having to stay

Introducing... Evelyn!

Helen and I welcomed Evelyn into the world, last week. After many many hours of labor and some crazy pushing, Evelyn took her first breath of air. Apologies for the 'late' posting, I made it a point to stay away from the computer and the internet in general

Google I/O 2013

This week is Google I/O. I usually go to this conference, barring a shortage of the tickets. This year though, the due date of the baby sits around this time, so we figured that it would probably not be a good idea for me to be away. I didn&

New Tagline!

With a previous post, Tagline Help, I was asking for a better tagline than 'From nerd to dorky dad... one bit at a time...' while keeping the same format. The final one I settled on for now is: > From gadget geek to dorky dad... one bit at
