EAJ 46 week update!
by Ben
Well it’s really been winter this past week. It’s been cold, then frigid, then cold again, and now it’s “warm” (~25) and snowing. I don’t mind the snow in the least, but cold and windy can get old even for me. Nikki got a bit of cabin fever today when Elias only slept for 30 […]
Elias is 10 months old!
by Ben
Wow, can you believe it? The little (well, not so little) man is 10 months already… Just 2 more months and we’ll have been at this a year already. He’s got three teeth now. He’s pretty much quit eating baby food, and he’s really cruising around the house a lot now. He’s also walking in […]
New Gear: Domke F-5XC
by Ben
Picked this up as a small shoulder bag option. So far so good. I wish it didn’t have the bottom zipper flap or the little front pockets but rather some pockets on the sides. But all in all it’s a good bag in terms of size and being small/compact. It fits a 100-400 vertically on […]
Happy 2009!!!
by Ben
Well a new year comes and it’s time to recap 2008. Obviously it’s been a huge year for us with the birth of Elias. It’s been a lot of work, but a ton of fun and we’ve really been enjoying everything about parent hood. He actually is 10 months old TODAY!. I’ve been on vacation […]
Merry Christmas 2008!
by Ben
Well Elias’ first Xmas is in the books! He seemed to understand opening presents (read ripping paper) and received a ton of gift. I’ll try to get a shot of just his loot, but yeah, he’s got enough toys for a while considering how much everyone got him. Nikki and I also had a wonderful […]
Save the boobies!
by Ben
for someone else?! Yep, guess Elias is done with breastfeeding… Over the last week he’s pretty much given up on it. Then Wednesday night he bit Nikki and has been having a bottle since. I guess it’s official, he’s growing up. He also got another introduction with snow this week. Friday night we gto ~9″ […]
A day full of Js…
by Ben
So today we went to Big J’s, BJ’s, then TJ’s to do a little shopping. Big J’s is Big John Leyden’s tree farm for a Christmas tree. We learned about him back when we first moved to RI because he was on some morning TV show. So my parents have been going there forever, and […]

Elias’ first snow day!
by Ben
2 posts in one day? Yep. New cameras have a habit of making me shoot more. Add to that I love snow, and apparently so does Elias, so you’re getting a double dose this weekend. We woke up to ~2″ of snow here in RI this morning. It’s Elias’ first time really seeing snow. He […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
by Ben
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope everyone is having a safe and fun holiday and stuffing your faces. I’m thankful for a lot, but the most is in the picture to the left. Nikki and Elias. Nikki was off to Newport early this morning to run the pie race. Elias and I held down the fort […]
Jailhouse!!!
by Ben
Our house is starting to look like a jailhouse. Elias is mobile enough now he’s getting into more things (trouble). So we’ve picked up 3 more gates this week. 2 are very inexpensive (2 for $20) that aren’t permanent. We’ve been using them on the doorways to the kitchen for now and they’re great because […]
