Attention all…

At long last, I was finally able to post-process and upload a few pictures tonight. There should be many more coming in the next few days, but until then, these should do:

A dad’s allowed to brag, right?

April 23rd, 2007

Bjorn isn’t even 17 months old yet, and he already knows how to say “Excuse Me” after burping or performing other noisy bodily functions. We have the best son ever.  :-)

That is all.

Bjorn’s Vocab

March 5th, 2007

It’s been a while since I’ve posted about Bjorn. It’s time I remedy that today, with a list of all the current words he’s able to sign:

(these are in no particular order)

  1. all done
  2. milk
  3. puppy
  4. cracker
  5. cheese
  6. daddy (which he actually uses generically for any caretaker)
  7. cow
  8. pig
  9. cat
  10. help
  11. pick me up (which he uses also to let you know when he’s ready to get down)
  12. blanket
  13. please
  14. grapes
  15. tired
  16. diaper
  17. telephone
  18. play
  19. bottle
  20. drink
  21. wash
  22. book
  23. ball
  24. chair/sit
  25. bye bye
  26. hello
  27. light
  28. toothbrush
  29. sheep
  30. tiger
  31. sock
  32. uh-oh
  33. where
  34. blanket (he says “tsi-tsi”. don’t ask us.)

That’s all I can remember right now…I’m surely missing a few, though. I’ll add ‘em as they come to me. Have I mentioned that baby sign language is amazing? Okay – just wanted to make sure :-)

Hop Harvest 2006

August 31st, 2006

I harvested my Northern Brewer hops last night. The yield was quite good being that they’re only in their 2nd year of growth.

This is about a third of the total harvest from the two NB plants:

I got some help from Meghan and Bjorn as well!

The hops are now resting peacefully in my shed. They’ll be there for the next few days or until they’re dry. After that , I’ll pack ‘em into freezer bags and into the deep freeze they go.

Okay – at the risk of this becoming a “cute pics of the boy” blog, here are a few more recent ones:

He’s been on the cusp of crawling for a week or so now…
