When getting in the car today Max found a stick that he wanted to bring with him. Not wanting him to poke himself in the eye on the way, she tried to take it from him. So he started running down the sidewalk with it. Eventually she got him into the…
Max seems to be getting the concept of sex differences, somehow. Last night he was drawing happy faces. He drew one in blue and one in pink. He told me ""Daddy is blue; Mommy is pink!"" Later that night he found a book I borrowed from a girl. It's…
Update: Hey, look [we're trendy.]() I read [this]() today and thought it was a good idea. So if you'd like to send max a note (give him a few years to learn to read before he replies) you can do so at MaxKidwell (squiggly thing) gmail…
I had a picture here of Max reading the newspaper on his potty - but after a couple of days I saw on flickr that it had been viewed more than two times more often than the second most viewed picture in my collection. Maybe a lot of people thought it…

Chile stood with his page of stickers in both hands, his face pressed up close, inspecting every one. He had a scowl of concentration written clearly on his face. THIS was an important decision. He had to choose which stickers he would use to…
I found [this thing]() on the web. It's a little java app that you can upload your picture to - and then transform it. It's kind of amazing... here's me, in a few years... This is based on an el Greco paint filter...
I purchased a years subscription to flickr yesterday. It really seems worth it, they have such a nice interface, and - the deal maker - they have a little application that can mass upload photos. so, as you can see, i now have a 5 random images from…
does anything look terribly wrong? For some reason i decided to waste some time updating the look and feel of this site. It looks nice on my computer... but who knows what it looks like to you. Let me know if you see any glaring problems.
