It was 4AM and Claire stumbled into our room. “Drew jumped on my head and woke me up,” she said. We really weren’t sure what happened, so we helped Claire back to her room. Sure enough, Drew was fast asleep laying sideways across Claire’s pillow. Manina lifted him into the crib, and he didn’t even …

A special surprise
I put Drew down for a nap today. After and hour or so I heard him yelling “Maw-Nee-Naa!”. I went in to get him and to my surprise I found this: and this: No, we don’t normally put our kids down for a nap in the nude. Drew figured out how to completely undress himself …
Skiiing at Deer Valley

She is so excited to finally be able to attend the same school as her older brother and sister. I, on the other hand, am struggling with …
My little turn on the catwalk
Like Derek Zoolander, I too have wondered if there is more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good-looking. I’ve decided that there isn’t. So, I’m officially announcing my candidacy for 2009 Male Model of the Year.
