My wife and I are at the age where our friends are having kids. So to keep friends and family updated on their kids daily activities, a majority of them maintain their own blogs. Well, as I mentioned before, Quinn (my wife) and I are expecting. That means that we need a blog to keep our friends and family updated. So, I asked Quinn to come up with some ideas for what she wanted our site to look like. She gave me some great ideas, and I put together a home page mockup in PhotoShop. When we decided on the final design, I began working on the CSS and HTML. The CMS I decided to go with is WordPress. It's pretty simple to use, and I love the functionality it provides, and the freedom you have to incorporate it into any design. The fact that it's free, and very simple to install, made for an easy decision as well. In all, I was able to purchase a domain, setup hosting, and complete the design, CSS and HTML in about 48 hours. I must say that I'm very happy with how it turned out, and equally as excited that my wife has now joined the blogosphere. So, have a look around, and enjoy.

I've been busy. Very, very, busy. Which means I've let my blog suffer and haven't written anything since... let's see here... NOVEMBER 27th! That's bad, however, I don't feel bad in the least. You want to know why? Because my site is taking a back seat to something way more important right now. "What could that be?" you might ask. Well I'll show you...

That's right, my beautiful wife and I are having a beautiful baby girl!!! We went for our 32 week ultrasound yesterday, and this picture (left) was taken. Isn't that amazing!

So, as you can see, you may not hear from me for a while as I'll be busy with more important business. You may, however, see a few more posts here. Posts of a proud father, showing off his beautiful baby daughter.

I can't believe I wrote only one post in October. What a shame. There are quite a few good reasons for this, however:

• My wife and I are expecting our first!!!
• We're selling our home, so we spent a majority of October painting, cleaning, minor fixing.
• I'm busy at work (this one rarely changes).
• I'm extremely busy on the side.

I'll try to post more often, but the way things are going now, and continue to proceed, don't hold your breath. I hate to cut this short, but now it's time to learn some Object Oriented JavaScript.
