The Baby Is A…

It’s A Girl! And a healthy, active lit­tle girl at that. So, do you think our lit­tle girl looks more like me or Angela? I’m pret­ty sure she’s not done grow­ing just yet, but we think she has Ange­la’s nose and my fore­head! Either, way, I already think she’s gor­geous. I hold no hope of ever… Con­tin­ue read­ing The Baby Is A…

Geekdad at Wired

Chris Ander­son (edi­tor in chief at Wired mag and author of The Long Tail) announced a new blog at Wired.com this after­noon: Geek­dad. It looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun projects, gad­gets, and advice from the point of view of dads. Need­less to day, I’m excit­ed and it (as well as… Con­tin­ue read­ing Geek­dad at Wired

Fame: Is It Any Wonder I Reject You First

Some of you are well aware of how much I use obsess over Newsvine (a news writ­ing and link-blog site). Recent­ly, one of the sites more pro­lif­ic users, Myko­la Bilokon­sky, did e‑mail inter­views with a hand­ful of oth­er users. I was sur­prised that he asked me but I got a real kick out of answer­ing… Con­tin­ue read­ing Fame: Is It Any Won­der I Reject You First

Baby Update: Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh! Edition

We vis­it­ed the doc­tor this after­noon to have our first lis­ten of the baby’s heart­beat. While not quite as dumb-found­ing as get­ting to see the first ultra­sound, it was still real­ly excit­ing. So much so that the nurse had to take the micro­phone (or trans­duc­er, what­ev­er) off of Ange­la’s bel­ly for a moment dur­ing a… Con­tin­ue read­ing Baby Update: Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh! Edition

Our First Ultrasound

Angela and I went to the doc­tor yes­ter­day morn­ing to have our first ultra­sound. There’s not much to see at 10 weeks, but see­ing a lit­tle flut­ter of pix­els which the nurse referred to as a heart­beat was a great sense of both relief and excite­ment. The nurse also quick­ly point­ed out the head of… Con­tin­ue read­ing Our First Ultrasound

We’re Having A Baby

Well, it’s prob­a­bly the worst kept secret of our lives, but just so the whole world knows: …and we’re both real­ly excit­ed. We had our first doc­tor’s vis­it this after­noon and every­thing looks great! So, around late August the whole world will get to know baby Cole­­man-Dyer (or Dyer-Cole­­man, we’re still work­ing that out). We’ve been dying… Con­tin­ue read­ing We’re Hav­ing A Baby

What Facial Expressions to Use When You’re Expecting

So Angela and I have been read­ing some dif­fer­ent books on preg­nan­cy. Okay, she’s been doing most of the read­ing so far as she has about five dif­fer­ent books. I bought one, titled Preg­nan­cy Sucks for Men: What to Do When Your Mir­a­cle Makes You BOTH Mis­er­able, which is a fair­ly enter­tain­ing read as well… Con­tin­ue read­ing What Facial Expres­sions to Use When You’re Expecting

Driving In My Car

So, the oth­er day I was real­ly feel­ing both­ered by the fact that I want­ed to write on the blog, but had­n’t had the time to do so. I noticed that I had yet to take the DV cam­era out of my bag (or man-purse, as Angela calls it) before going back to work. I… Con­tin­ue read­ing Dri­ving In My Car
