Great deal on Tivo!

TiVo.com Buy Tivo

If you've been around Margaret and I enough then you have probably heard our Tivo speech. Up until the middle of August Tivo announced a referral rewards service for people who "preach the tivo gospel" on a daily basis...i.e. Marg & I. The other day I asked Marg what she would do if Tivo all the sudden broke. She said that if BestBuy was still open then she'd run to the store and buy another one. Basically...if you watch tv, you haven't really been watching tv without Tivo. So go out and buy one ($99) and make sure you enter our email address when you register the box (matt.keithley@ferguson.com). Thanks!!!

Thank you, Patty & Sharon, for Walker's precious FSU warm-up suit!


Listed below are several pictures of Walker on the activity blanket that Wendi & Eddie gave him this weekend. As you scroll down you may notice a progression...that is because Walker rolled over for the first time today!!!!!!!!

We had no idea he was going to roll over and the sequence of pictures was purely a coincidence. We are so proud of our little man!!

Our apologies for not posting any new pictures lately. I was in Vermont for a few days (that's another story altogether that I'll share at some other point) & Marg was holding down the fort. Hope these pictures find everyone well.

Walker weighed in at 8lb 2oz when we met with the pediatrician today. He received a clean bill of health!

Walker is free of his umbilical cord (8/4) and this picture was taken after his first tub bath...he didn't make a peep.

I woke up sick to my stomach...

...because I realized what happened last night, in fact, happened. After dinner last night I proceeded to go out and run a couple of errands. The car (yes, the new one) was parked in the garage so I got in and started it up. Margaret comes out into the garage to tell me something and by then I had pushed the button to allow the garage door to open. Both of our dogs were loose in the garage because they were eating but as soon as they saw the garage door open they jetted. Normally I kennel them up when I leave but for some reason I didn't this time. Instinct prevailed (unfortunately) and I opened my door up to try and stop them from running out of the garage...well that didn't work. So I got out to try and grab them...that didn't work either. Much to my chagrin I realize that I had put the car into reverse earlier and didn't realize it until the car started...well...reversing.

At that point Margaret was hysterical. Hearing her reaction made me think that the car had ran over one or both of the dogs. But the reasons for her hysteria were simple....garage door bent to hell...drivers side door busted and bent back to the front of the vehicle. You see...we have a load bearing pole in the middle of our two car garage. When I got out of the car to grab the dogs the door remained open and proceeded to bend back until the inevitable happened.

The garage door is fine and operates as it always had. I wish I could say the same for the door to our car; you can't even close it. We called Geico to file a claim and an adjuster will be out to see us in 24 - 48 business hours. The car will need to be towed to the Honda dealership I'm sure due to the abundant draft an open door causes when it's driven at high speeds. Let the Geico jokes begin.

Mood after typing this post: Never better. I have my health...I have a beautiful wife....and I have a precious son who is just starting to wake up.
