A two-headed young tortoise is held by its owner, Noel Daniels, in Wellington, South Africa, Wednesday, May 28, 2003. Daniels says that the tortoise does all the things a normal tortoise does and that the rare phenomena occurs during the embryonic stage of development. (AP Photo/Obed Zilwa)

Vincent's not fond of the camera. Here he gives his "are you talkin' to me" look from his birthday (today) photo shoot.

Your Wish is Granted

What more could a parent wish for? Two sleeping children. They were asleep long enough for Suzy to run in for some Starbucks.

Gary Coleman Impression

Vincent and Grandma Patty give their best impression of each other (and Gary Coleman ??)

I love the internet. Curious who has the world's largest arms? Me too. I think I found the answer, Gregg Valentino:

big biceps

Mother's Day 2003

Couldn't ask for better weather today at Zuma Beach. What a great way to celebrate Mother's Day. Friends, family, food and mothers. [Mother's Day Pictures | http://www.bigfrog.net/photos/20030511/Images/] here, as always, in the "Photo Gallery". And as this is the second year of the digital camera, don't forget to checkout [Mother's Day 2002 | http://www.bigfrog.net/photos/20020512/Images/].

What a difference a year makes

Now that I've had the digital camera for a full year, I'm starting to get pictures from the same event, one year later. For the next event, I might actually look at the previous year's pictures so I can more strangley similar photos (same beach, same sunglasses, same swim suit, same grip on child), but for Mother's Day, I just have these:

2002 - Steve and Katherine

Bloggar

Bloggar is a Windows app that allows you to post to your MovableType blog (the software that BigFrog uses) from the comfort of a native app. It includes spellchecking easy image uploading. Not sure if it will help weblog newbies, though.

Image Test

You should see a duck.

Barberie.net

Though currently busy with their new baby girl, Grace, Don and Jen now have a web site. Just click on over to [barberie.net | http://www.barberie.net/]. When things get less crazy, expect them to update the site.

Atkins Starter

You don't need a book to start Atkins. Just follow these two articles for the first two (or more) weeks during the %induction phase% and watch the pounds fall off. I'm now 10 days into it and have lost *12 pounds* -- 233 to 221. * [Rules of induction | http://atkinscenter.com/Archive/2001/12/15-325810.html] * [What to eat | http://atkinscenter.com/Archive/2001/12/15-464579.html]

Bouncer Fun

"i(IMG_2251.jpg)" The cousins stop bouncing long enough for a photo at Owen's first birthday party. Great party -- catered by [In-N-Out | That's what a hamburger's all about | http://www.in-n-out.com/]. Apparently you can order any of the burgers %protein style%. That's the same great burger wrapped in lettuce rather than a bun. Apparently, there's a number of items on their [secret menu | http://www.zenlemur.com/innout.shtml].

Put Your Three Year Old to Work

"i(IMG_2223.jpg)" There's no reason your three year old shouldn't be helping out. Unglue them from the T.V. set and put them to work. There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to enjoy your morning coffee and newspaper ;). Here we see Katherine taking over Vincent's morning feeding. Now, if I could only teach her how to change the morning poops...

We train them young

Vincent, just a month shy of his first birthday, settles down for a long afternoon hack.
