WWJD? VCR is Bustinated

So our VCR is officially borked.  Evelyn worked her little one year old magic and the tape is destroyed as well as the VCR being confused as to what its job in the universe is (it won’t even boot up to show us the time).  We have some VHS tapes that we don’t watch with any regularity but that Jessica and I have collected.  Jessica brought to our marriage a whole slew of Disney kids tapes (Cinderella, Winnie the Pooh, Dancing with the Stars, etc.)  but we don’t watch those and neither do the kids.  Do we buy a new VCR (Sony only, I’m going to keep a unified branding for my electronics) for the few VHS tapes we own or not?  What Would’Jou Do? [sorry for the bad play on words – sort of]

Happy First Birthday, Evie!

Evie turns one today. Today at work we have a release going out and it has some new flashy features. I get a wee nervous on days like this – but not as nervous as I was last year when Jessica went into labor. However, late in the evening Evie came out, Jessica survived and our family of three jumped to four in what seemed like only 36 months [due to chaos and busyness].

Happy Birthday, Evie, we love you!

Big Week Ahead

This week is going to be rather fun, Evie turns one on Tuesday.  I’m so thrilled that she’s developing into a little toddler girl.  My baby girl won’t be a baby much longer.  Abby ages a year every month it seems as her vocabulary, her clothes and her body change.  Wow.  I have two beautiful girls, a gorgeous wife and a lovely chance to be a husband and dad.

Good times!

Shopping for a One Year Old’s Birthday

Tonight we picked up a few small presents for Evelyn’s birthday.  With her in the cart.  Holding the presents as we walked through the store.  I love shopping with her because the surprise will still be on her face when she turns one on the 24th.  Its good stuff 🙂

She loves puppies and dogs for those who are wondering.
