Well our animals have done a good job on our carpets… They love to tear up little pieces of the rug, and we’ve been doing an OK job of hiding that with throw rugs… Friday was the end though. We came home from work and found the reminents of a bird all over the floor […]

We had our 16 week checkup today… Awesome visit as we spent nearly 15 minutes checking out the baby on the ultrasound. 10 fingers, 10 toes, 2 kidneys, 2 lungs 4 heart chambers, the head of an 18 week old (just like Dad?!) bones, everything but the sex… Even if we’d wanted to know the […]

I’ve been going through all my old digital images in an attempt to get everything organized. I’m also working on setting up my better images over on www.benjacobsenphoto.com to sell them. In the process I found an old fun shot of Nikki, one of me and Nikki on our first anniversary, a few of Moseley, […]

Nikki and I went for another beautiful walk on the beach Sunday morning with Moseley. There was a nice brisk breeze from the north which made it feel a little more like fall. Everyone has been asking how Nikki is and or looks so I figured I’d bring the camera along and snap a few […]

One of the best rally drivers in the world died today. Not much to say except that I hope he’s in a better place. He was always pushing the limits and helped to popularize rally racing. I’ve included a great memorial video from youtube, as well as some photos. The guys over at NASIOC have […]

Today’s the boat show. It’s pouring right now so we have our foul weather gear on, but were still going. We’re specifically headed to the Melges booth to interrogate them about the 20′. I’ll post pictures and any info I have when I get home. Update: OK, I’m home. We went to the show Saturday. […]

OK, file this under the nasty things department… When we were down on my parents boat over the Christmas/New Year holiday this winter I bumped my forearm on something while diving. I got a small cut on my arm and never thought anything of it. Well in the last month or so it felt a […]

We’re working on selling our Viper 830. We want to get into something a bit smaller to facilitate rigging and sailing with less people. The 830 requires at least 2 people to rig and or sail and a truck to move due to it’s 2,200lb weight. The Viper 640 is one of the top options […]

Well I’ve finally managed to integrate my gallery2 site with a wordpress blog. I was trying to use the plugin that would handle everything for me, but I couldn’t get it working. What I ended up doing is editing the themes I’m using for both the blog and gallery2 so they match. It’s not perfect, […]

Nikki and I went for a nice walk with Moseley tonight at Seal Point. If you’ve never been there before, it’s called Seal Point because (in the winter) it’s where the seals hang out. It’s also an awesome point in Narragansett Bay with gorgeous views. I also got a picture of Nikki looking a little […]

Another month, another doctor’s appointment. It’s the end of the first trimester officially now. Nikki’s starting to show enough so people who don’t know her might guess it… We’re starting the 13th week today. We heard the baby’s heart beat for the first time today which was incredible. It’s heart rate was 160bpm which is […]

We made it home… Not that that should be a surprise… Anyway, I’ll be posting more images later, but we had a fantastic trip. We finally got to meet Linnea’s Mom and had a wonderful time catching up with Linnea, meeting her Mom, and Matthew. We also got a chance to go to Shelburne Museum […]

Yeah, so here we are playing with Linnea’s MacBook. Or at least the macbook that’s here on the desk. It’s late Saturday night or maybe it’s already Sunday AM. We’re getting caught up over online image galleries (isn’t the internet wonderful?!). I’ll be sure to post more on Monday (night) with all the images of […]
