I’m coming down with something… It figures after all of the travel and craziness of the last week. We’re finally back in town, I finally have web access again and I promise to write more details about last week as soon as I catch up at work. But the good news is Jordan has a [...]

We got right to business when we got to Houston. Here’s a look at Jordan’s silliness in the plane and all the work we got done on our first day at Pediatric Prosthetics.

Video delay
October 24th, 2006 · 1 Comment · 2006
We’re in Houston and I have a great 4 and a half minute video that’s processing through Google video… After I spent all kinds of time dealing with spotty internet access on my Mac. So I’ve moved to borrowing my kind host’s computer… And waiting on Google approval to post the second blog online. So [...]

Rolling and giggling
May 27th, 2006 · No Comments · 2006
Have I mentioned that Jordan can’t pay attention when I’m feeding her these days? It’s a very standard issue for babies at this age. The world is exciting, and she doesn’t want to miss any moment that is happening behind her when she’s eating. So she eats a little, turns around to look at something… [...]

So we had another fitting today for Jordan’s arm. She was so good… The test socket is made of a plastic form that kind of moves around like a soda bottle — it’s thicker, but very similar in how it stretches and bends. Actually, it’s kind of the thickness of a Livestrong bracelet. I digress. [...]

Our first step towards a new tool
April 25th, 2006 · No Comments · 2006
Working Randy’s shift and caring for both kids in the morning is insane. I wake up early, get the dogs ready, convince Cam to get dressed and eat and then I rush to wake the baby (which kills me to do by the way), dress her, feed her, pack her into the car seat… make [...]
