Here's something I made earlier

This is the first picture of things to come. Although it's only 5.4mm long, it has a heart beat, which is working fine. The next ultrasound should be a little more interesting.

Loss of a friend

I just found out that a player on my soccer team has died today after getting caught up in an avalanche while skiing.

It strange to open up your e-mail and get news like that. Although I didnt know him all that well I did know that he was a very nice guy and its a real shame that his time came this early.

He was the guy who would always try and get everyone together after a game for a beer, i've never seen him in a bad mood, and his commitment during a game was second to none.

He will be missed.

Snow Angel

I have been recognized by the City of Calgary as a Snow Angel! Basically I received a letter and a Snow Angel pin (photo may appear later). My neighbour nominated me as I've been helping her out with a bunch of different things. This post might be a little more interesting if I end up winning the holiday thats up for grabs, stay tuned.

Becoming a Father

For those of you who don't know already and are for some reason reading this, I am going to be a dad, well not for another nine months, but a couple of weeks in and the work has already begun! I have been reading what pregnancy involves and it seems that its not as easy as just waiting nine months. Some books and web sites say that peanuts are a big no no, while others say that peanut butter is a good source of protein for a vegetarian mum. Diet pop, caffeine, green tea, tuna amongst other things are out, and something called a 'well balanced diet' is in!
