No longer does he sleep all day - now he takes short naps and is much more active with his surroundings. Today he had his first real morsel of food, a bit of canteloupe, as we had brunch with Janna, ... http://www.sodani.com/index.php/2008/08/24/lukey-and-theo/ On Saturday night, Steve got us tickets for the President’s Club at Nats Park.

This is a word we had worked on the previous week. After getting the right letters and spelling the word, he exclaimed with glee, “I didn’t ... http://www.sodani.com/index.php/2008/06/30/theoism/ Got that dreaded error message on my Mac this weekend. Afgter some wrestling with Disk Utility, and having it fail to fix my drive, I finally got it to work with DiskWarrior.
