Rutgers Over Louisville 28-25

Friday, November 10th, 2006

Rutgers Defense Comes up Big Listened to Rutgers take down Louisville in a come from behind win last night. Have to say, for a Rutgers Alum who remembers going to games and watching students stream out at the end of the 1st Quarter when we were already trailing by 20 pts. this is pretty incredible. [...]

Playing with food

Feel like playing with food?

Baby Video

Monday, May 22nd, 2006

I’ve posted an older video of Chris that we took at Lisa’s parents house. I just discovered Flickr a few weeks ago (well, re-discovered, guess that puts me on the trail of the Web 2.0 crowd) so of course YouTube seems like the logical next step. So… here it is:

MythTV Box

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

So building a Tivo seemed like a great idea last month… Actually getting MythTV up and running in my desktop on Ubuntu with a PVR-150 went pretty smoothly.  Upgrading to Dapper seems to have broken the config, and getting the remote and VFD working has been painful.  Probably the best thing to do would be [...]

New Photos

New photos of the kids have made it online. There’d be more, but they’re keeping us soo busy…

Sippy Cup

Thursday, March 2nd, 2006

I was at Ikea this weekend picking up a bookshelf to add to the babies room, when lisa had me pick up this cup set. Chris loved it! Started giggling once he opened the package and saw the little penguin looking back at him, and hasn’t stopped since. Well worth the 6 [...]

More Photos

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

I’ve posted some more photos of Chris and the girls. Twins aren’t so bad–most of the time. Sometimes, they’re a couple of handfulls. Having twins and a highly energetic 17-month old at the same time… that’s quite a stretch. Hence the long delay in posting pictures.

The twins are shooting up like [...]

Leila and Penelope

Tuesday, December 27th, 2005

Hi everyone,

I hope the holidays finds everyone happy and well.

I’m proud to announce that yesterday morning at 12:46 and 12:55 PM Leila and Penelope Shao entered the world.

Leila was 5 lb. 11 oz, and 19 inches long. She’s the quiet thoughtful one, but she’s looking around an awful lot so I’m suspicious that she’s [...]

Wednesday at the Latest

Friday, December 23rd, 2005

At today’s doctor’s visit they told us to they were going to set up an appointment to induce labor next wednesday at 39 weeks if the babies haven’t come yet. The irony of scheduling to induce the babies on Lisa’s birthday is rather odd.

Any Day Now

Tuesday, December 20th, 2005

The girls are expected any day now. Work’s been interesting — I get a lot of “you’re still here” comments and everyone seems to be excited. Twins are definitely a big deal.

Thoughts and Ruminations, where I write about personal things, Rutgers, eLearning, JA-SIG, uPortal, Sakai, and other topics or commentary as it takes my fancy.
