Such Amazing Generosity: Logan’s First Baby Shower

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Earlier this week Logan has his first baby shower, and Ashley and I were blown away at the generosity shown by the friends and family that attended. Logan received books, toys, and a lot of new clothes. That’s a good thing, because he’s growing so fast he’s already not fitting in many of his newborn clothes – and he’s not quite six weeks old yet! We had him weighed and measured last week, and he was 10 pounds and 22 inches long. Could you imagine gaining 25% of your body weight and 10% of your height in only five weeks? It’s amazing how fast babies grow – and Logan has another 18 years or so of growing to do.

If you’ve never played an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game), you won’t find this video as funny as I do, but if you have any background in online gaming, you’ll appreciate the clever lyrics. And if you’ve never checked out The Guild, you should – it’s absolutely hilarious!

Today the courier delivered to us perhaps the cutest shoes ever made! They’re from my uncle and aunt, who are far away in Phoenix, Arizona, and should fit Logan when he’s in the 16-20 month range…I’m tempted to put them on him now because they’re so adorable. ;-)

Oh Costco, what would we do without you? Even when you’re out of the normal 96 pack of kleenex we’d normally buy, you still offer us the smaller 48 pack. Thanks for being there for us Costco!

“Below we present a selection of some of the most bizarre adverts, requests and personals listed on the site – from the elderly woman looking for a lodger to live in her bathroom, to the man selling 1,300 Pope hats. While some were undoubtedly posted as pranks, they still reflect the spirit of a website that proudly keeps itself open to all internet life.”

CagePotato has a great collection of MMA fight photos that show the exact moment many fighters take a punch – it’s amazing the things our eyes see but our brain simply can’t process because it happens so fast. This is what you get when you have dozens of photographers around the ring, all snapping away with high-end DSLR cameras: the exact moment of truth when a punch lands. Some great pics!
