This past Saturday Joshua and I spent the day at a middle school…not for the great cafeteria food but so he could compete in his second chess tournament. He had a great time and did so well that he brought home a medal!
A Little More John…

Our little boy, John, really enjoys simply hanging out and thrashing about. Â Click below for a short little slideshow of some pictures I took over the span of about 5 minutes on Sunday. Â They are pretty raw so please excuse the drool and boogers. Â :-)
The song is by Staci Frenes and titled “Looking at You”.

At the request (multiple) of my wife I’m finally getting around to posting a picture of our 5 month old son, John.  I was hoping to maybe start some sort of urban legend regarding his existence but I don’t think Jenn would think that funny.  So, without further ado we present John Bendedict:

The song lives on

Just a quick note…
Today was our cub scout pack’s pinewood derby races. Unfortunately, no trophies were brought home but Dominic did snag a ribbon for ‘most musical’ design.
Car’s title: Livin’ on a Prayer
Main design element: picture of Bon Jovi with title ofthe song
Jenn was ’speechless’
“Ohhhh, we’re halfway there..”
C’mon you know the words!

So…
for some reason back in November (maybe) I decided to introduce my kids to Bon Jovi’s song ‘Livin on a Prayer’. Â Little did I know that they would take this song and make it their anthem for the next 2 months. Â Even Elias (who doesn’t yet talk) will hum and ’sing’ the chorus…”Ohhhh, we’re half way there….” – you get the idea. Â Well, to say I haven’t been too popular with Jenn after she’s heard this day in and day out would be a slight understatement. Â Still, they are cute when they sing it.
