The kids are snug in their beds and Mommy and I have finished pulling the Christmas stuff together for the kids.… https://t.co/aIHAAbDm

Family (91)

January 01, 2011, 07:52 PM

Now that it’s been announced at work, I can say that Alicia and I will be moving from Ontario to Nova Scotia in the next couple of months!

January 01, 2011, 07:54 PM

… we have a lot to do. Sell a house, buy a house, move everything we own and transport 2 toddlers ~1,900 kilometres. Should be crazy!

January 03, 2011, 11:50 AM

Off to an early start this morning. Drew’s already up and playing with the ‘WiPad’ on Mom & Dad’s bed while Mommy rests.

January 03, 2011, 06:48 PM

Productive day thus far - took down christmas lights, fixed the shower door, ran an errand or two, posted another item on Kijiji for sale…

January 04, 2011, 03:18 AM

Off to bed. I have an early start for work tomorrow. Emma & Drew will be attending the same daycare beginning tomorrow too!

January 15, 2011, 02:53 AM

Home safe and sound. It’s been a long couple days. Hopefully we hear good news tomorrow. Night.

January 17, 2011, 11:58 PM

Now that we have a house on the other side with a very real closing date, starting to zero in on the other details. Movers, utilities, etc.

January 22, 2011, 11:57 PM

A good Saturday with the kids. We went to the ‘Early Years’ at the YMCA, had a trip to the Library and played outside in the snow!

January 22, 2011, 11:58 PM

We’re having an Open House tomorrow at our place from 2pm-4pm. Wish us luck. I’d rather not own 2 houses for long. :slightly_smiling_face:

January 29, 2011, 01:18 PM

Emma just walked up the stairs on her feet for the first time!

February 01, 2011, 02:57 AM

Mmmmm… Wife-baked Apple Pie! Thanks hon.

February 08, 2011, 01:20 AM

So the house has been packed… Tomorrow the truck arrives in the morning and we’ll be on a plane by 3pm. Nova Scotia, here we come!

February 09, 2011, 02:07 AM

We’ve arrived safely in Nova Scotia. There was a little drama at Pearson, but we made it on the plane… Kids sleeping now in our hotel room

February 10, 2011, 12:49 AM

We survived Day #1 on the ground in Halifax. We close on our new house tomorrow. Hopefully we’ll have our stuff on Friday…

February 10, 2011, 03:54 PM

We closed on our new house in Hammonds Plains. Got the keys! Maybe we’ll venture out there after nap time…

February 11, 2011, 12:52 AM

Spent some time at the new house today. It’s beautiful there. It’s looking good for our stuff to arrive tomorrow… Cross your fingers!

February 13, 2011, 01:38 AM

Yay! In our house with all our stuff. We had a surprise visit today from my Mom and Sister. They were an awesome help!

February 14, 2011, 01:01 AM

Day 2 in the house was successful… more progress! Got a TV fully setup, a car now fits in the garage and I’m using my iMac at my desk!

February 16, 2011, 12:41 AM

Day 2 in at work. Another good day. Reasonable commute - 34 minutes in, 30 minutes out.

February 19, 2011, 12:33 AM

Took the kids to “Steak and Stein” tonight. My family used to go there all the time when I was a kid. Good food. Kids were crazy. :slightly_smiling_face:

February 21, 2011, 01:05 AM

Had a great weekend with my folks. The kids loved it. I was laying on the guest bed downstairs and Drew said “Daddy layin’ on Papa’s bed?”

February 24, 2011, 12:56 AM

Another good day at work today. Alicia’s doing a fantastic job bringing the house together. Kids back to daycare tomorrow.

February 26, 2011, 01:34 AM

Nasty weather tonight in Halifax. I’m glad we live in a sturdy house!

March 01, 2011, 12:26 AM

Brutal commute home from the office today… Hammonds Plains Road was a disaster. Will need to chart different directions for bad weather.

March 01, 2011, 10:20 PM

Well… The kids look better this evening than they did this morning. Here’s hoping the worst is over.

March 15, 2011, 12:38 AM

I think Alicia fed the kids crazy pills today. They were nuts this evening.

March 18, 2011, 12:34 AM

More family this weekend! My mother and grandmother will be up on Saturday. Date nighttttttt! #fb

March 20, 2011, 12:44 PM

Alicia and I had a great time last night. We ate at The Press Gang and then caught a show at the Neptune Theater. #fb

March 24, 2011, 01:12 AM

Go Emma! Way to pee in the potty! Drew… She’s passing you dude… #fb

March 29, 2011, 01:05 AM

So I guess my wife ordered herself an iPad 2 on launch day! She finally decided to let me in on it. :slightly_smiling_face: pink cover too! #fb

March 30, 2011, 11:50 PM

Home network reconfigured. Use of wireless minimized. I’ll take a hard wire any day… CAT5, Powerline… it’s all better than wireless. #fb

April 03, 2011, 12:01 AM

Another nice visit by Nana & Papa to Hammonds Plains. The kids love it! #fb

April 03, 2011, 12:02 AM

We loaded up a 2011 Toyota Sienna today for a test drive. Alicia and I, the 2 munchkins and my folks. Very nice vehicle. #fb

April 07, 2011, 01:11 AM

White 2011 Sienna has been located… Will accept delivery early next week. Wife happy. #winning #fb

April 12, 2011, 11:43 PM

Family - New pictures posted in our image gallery. Look in both the kids albums and in our “Family Outings” album. #fb

April 16, 2011, 04:09 PM

A quiet Saturday thus far with a couple of semi-sick kids. We’re taking them to clinic after they wake up from their naps. Yawn! #fb

April 21, 2011, 12:54 AM

Alicia and I just beat Diablo II for the first time together… Yes… The year 2000 called, they want their Role Playing Game back. #fb

April 22, 2011, 11:44 PM

Drew peed on the potty today!! …. and on the floor… and I think on Mommy a bit… Hey… His aim will improve. One pee at a time. #fb

April 24, 2011, 11:45 PM

Beautiful Easter Sunday in Port Bickerton. Drew loves to run around outside Nana & Papa’s house! Ham for lunch and dinner. Mmmm. #fb

April 29, 2011, 12:45 AM

I tucked Drew in tonight and he looked at me from under the covers and said “night Dad.” Such a big boy now! Wow. #fb

April 30, 2011, 01:02 AM

Nana and Papa in the house. They’re heading to Bermuda in the morning. Their son James is their chauffeur to the Airport. #fb

May 05, 2011, 09:30 PM

Woot. Finally figured out iTunes Home Sharing. At least when I see Alicia’s purchases hit my VISA now they’ll also be in my library. :slightly_smiling_face: #fb

May 07, 2011, 12:45 AM

My folks return from Bermuda tomorrow. Less than a month away until Alicia and I fly to Antigua… Without the kids. Yay! #fb

May 07, 2011, 11:20 PM

Watching “The Tourist” with Alicia. A Gin & 7 will be joining us shortly. #fb

May 11, 2011, 11:43 PM

This just in, paying the bills for 2 houses, sucks. #fb

May 13, 2011, 11:18 PM

Got my yard tractor today… I don’t think I’ve ever had anything delivered in a crate before. It runs! Daddy and Drew will have fun! #fb

May 14, 2011, 11:39 PM

Just watched the Season Finale of Bluebloods on CBS. This is a great show if you haven’t seen it. #fb

May 18, 2011, 01:09 AM

Do other parents wipe their kids’ noses by reaching over and squeezing their nostrils and wiping the boogers away with their fingers? #fb

May 19, 2011, 11:42 PM

Anyone else think Schwarzenegger’s love child looks like Jorge Villalobos from “Meet the Fockers”? #fb

May 28, 2011, 11:15 AM

Papa and Nana in the house. The kids couldn’t be happier. #fb

May 28, 2011, 11:38 PM

My Dad’s better than your Dad. He installed crown molding in the living room AND brought me a power saw with safety gear. Thanks! #fb

June 01, 2011, 11:53 PM

T-minus 2 working days until Alicia and I leave for Antigua. Not that we’re counting. #fb

June 02, 2011, 12:26 AM

Family - FYI. I finally got around to updating our image gallery. There are many new pictures of the kids now available. #fb

June 08, 2011, 08:46 PM

Mega relaxing day in Antigua. Raining right now. Just finished my 2nd book of the week. Fancy dinner planned with my beautiful wife. #fb

June 11, 2011, 12:46 AM

We’re beginning our trip home tomorrow. We’ve had an awesome time, but we both miss our kids and need to get home. #fb

June 12, 2011, 05:10 AM

Landed safely at Halifax Airport. Grabbing our bags and heading home! #fb

June 14, 2011, 12:18 AM

Nana what did you do to Emma? Now she’s totally sweet and reasonable! …. Not really. Just kidding. She’s still nuts. Love you Emma! :slightly_smiling_face: #fb

June 14, 2011, 11:47 PM

Family - I posted our Antigua vacation pictures in our image gallery. Look for the new album under ‘Our Travels’. Enjoy! #fb

June 19, 2011, 03:19 PM

Enjoying a wonderful Father’s Day with Alicia, Andrew & Emma. Happy Father’s day shout out to my Father as well. Love you Dad! #fb

June 19, 2011, 05:12 PM

My family got me a Keurig Mini Plus coffee maker for Father’s Day. Not to mention about 40 K-cups of coffee. Zing! Love it! #fb

June 25, 2011, 12:52 AM

Andrew had a big first today - his first whizz outside on the side of the road. Handled the wind like a pro! Dad was proud. #fb

July 02, 2011, 12:01 AM

Awesome Canada Day with the kids in Halifax. It’s great living in a bigger city - so much to do on days like this! #fb

July 16, 2011, 11:41 PM

Great day with the kids today. We went exploring and stumbled upon a historic fort - York Redoubt. The kids loved the big cannons! #fb

August 07, 2011, 10:57 AM

The kids slept through the night last night. 2 more sleeps until Mommy returns! Yay! #fb

August 09, 2011, 11:39 PM

Mommy is home! The kids (and Daddy) are soooo happy! Yay! #fb

August 21, 2011, 11:29 PM

Great afternoon/evening with the kids at Oakfield Park/Beach. Took a tent, BBQ, Kite, Ball and just had a fun time. Kids had a ball! #fb

September 02, 2011, 11:30 PM

Nana met us at the kids’ daycare this evening. Grabbed the kids and some pizza, had dinner. Took a trip out to Wheaton’s. Good times. #fb

September 06, 2011, 11:18 PM

The kids and I washed the cars yesterday… then Drew played with his toy shovel and threw a load of gravel on the hood of my car. Kids! #fb

September 08, 2011, 12:08 AM

With the kids back to school, traffic is really sucking. Especially now that I have another passenger to drop off in the South End! :slightly_smiling_face: #fb

September 13, 2011, 12:16 AM

Tried a new route on the way home today. Armdale rotary and then down the 103. “Felt” faster. Definitely less stop and go. Monitoring. #fb

September 18, 2011, 11:06 PM

Changed 41 light bulbs in the house to CFLs today. Oh the excitement! #fb

September 19, 2011, 11:16 PM

Picked up a discounted fire pit this evening. It will be nice to sit by the fire with the kids this fall! #fb

September 26, 2011, 12:02 AM

Busy but great weekend. Had a wonderful trip to Peggy's Cove today with Alicia's Dad. Amazing weather, the kids loved it. #fb

October 23, 2011, 11:06 AM

My daughter only wants to watch Monster Truck videos on YouTube. Redneck in the making there. She clearly gets this from her mother.

October 26, 2011, 11:24 PM

What a train wreck of an evening with the kids. Just melt down after melt down! Phew.

This Internet TV thing with the Boxee Box isn’t perfect (yet)… But it’s still pretty cool. No more cable for us! (for now…)

Against my better judgement, I think we’re going to pay for TV again… Cable or Satellite, that is the question… Eastlink? Alliant? Shaw?

Today was Drew’s first day in underpants. There was good, there was bad, there was messy. He looks cute in his little “Cars” jockies! #fb

More rain today… will it ever stop? The grass is longggg, I have a new yard tractor but it’s just too wet out. Boo! #fb

Finally got out on my new tractor and cut the grass. Took me a little over an hour. Not bad considering the size of my yard. Ruh ruh! #fb

Congrats to my Service Desk in Ontario. They hit all of their SLAs for 12 months in a row. Many said it couldn’t be done. Awesome! #fb

Ever notice that the grass doesn’t look long until you start cutting it? Hello rake… #fb

I’m no mechanic. Just levelling the deck on my lawn tractor turns in to a grand undertaking with me needing advil by the end of it. #fb

If you were only allowed to keep one tool from your toolbox, what would it be? Easy one here - my vise grips. Talk about multi-purpose! #fb

What is up with cell phone names these days. Sprint is peddling the “Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch”. Seriously? Marketing fail! #fb

It might be time to try another electric razor. I’m tired of the constant struggle to find an effective yet inexpensive razor + blade combo.

Eh. I need to get geek-organized. My files are all over the place, OS X could use a fresh install… Sigh.
