Precor Elliptical Coming My Way

I love to exercise outdoors, but sometimes the forces of the universe combine against me: the southern heat, nausea, a golfing husband, two kids who are allergic to the stroller . . .

NO MORE am i at the mercy of the universe.

Thanks to my lovely kyle i will soon be the proud owner of a precor elliptical. I have been wanting one for about 4 years and finally the day has arrived. If you have to burn your calories indoors its great fun and a good workout. Hopefully it gets here in one piece.

amendment to yesterdays post

Due to the seriousness of my viewers an amendment to yesterday's post is required:

• I love my children, the song was for fun and the next kid may not be the last.
• My job is good, my life is not a drudgery as some may think, heck I get to play golf almost everyday.
• No amendment on my comment about brittney, she is still the best.

Kyle's Back

It has been 2.5 months since my last post, I am coming out for a guest appearance on my high jacked blog. At least someone is keeping the world posted of our happenings in the depths of the south.

Here are some recent highlights:

• I am an official doctor now.
• I graduated and passed the national board exam with flying colors.
• I almost melted on the golf course 3 times this past week.
• One of my lovely patients told me I looked "9 years old", I promptly sent her for cataract surgery. (no joke)
• I have come to terms with being a father of 3 and wrote a lovely song about it to the tune of little mermaid.

Look at these kids
Arent they sweet
One more little boy (or girl) and our collection's complete
And NO MORE KIDS!!!! NO MORE KIDS!!! NO MORE KIDS!!!

• After only 2 weeks of work I am ready to cut back from 4.5 days to 4 days/ week "you can't find a job in this town unless you work 40 hours a week" --lloyd, dumb and dumber
• My wife is the best, for fathers day she got me lawn service.

graduation, ah happy day

our computer with all our pictures blew up. until the new one arrives, here are a few pix our friend mary sent us from graduation.

also, ella is swimming underwater with her goggles and loving it. kate jumps in with or without someone to catch her. baby steps at the pool but so exciting!

ella or kate?

i love this picture. who says they don't look alike?

May: the short list

1. Kyle graduated from UAB! Yahoo! (Thanks to his parents for coming out, family and friends for their support, and Dan and Mary for everything)

2. Our baby is due Christmas day. Yeah! Nausea in this heat is unbearable.

3. Our dear friend Karen Deschamps passed away and we flew to Utah for her funeral. Prayers to Mindy and her family.

4. Katie-kate has upped her fearlessness. She routinely tries to fly. Also, last week she handed me a toy and told me to "hold this"

5. Iron man is awesome and everyone should see it.
6. Kyle had his first day of paid labor today. He is already planning his retirement.

7. I officially retired yesterday from my role as breadwinner. Today i went through about 36,000 emails getting ready to send my computer back. In the mix i found this ditty from our weekly rides at TNI. Hopefully k and i will get back to those trails soon.

Here's to retirement, getting me a bike, and spending a lot more time outdoors with the fam.

The last time i saw a mouth like that . . .

. . . It had a hook in it. okay, enough for the ugly jokes, here's to 9 holes with dad and a little time on the pier. This one almost broke the pole. Caught with a night crawler, compliments of walmart.
