  • Observations of my Toddler

    I thought I’d write up a quick post on my observations of Jackson and his progression these last few months. Being a new father, I’m not sure who I should be comparing Jackson to. If he’s behind at his age, I guess I wouldn’t really know. I haven’t done that much extensive research on where…

  • Our Home, Sweet Home.

    We arrived here in Carmel, Indiana towards the end of last week. Moving is kind of a stressful endeavor especially when you are moving states and you are all by yourself with a toddler while your wife is working. But, I made it and we are here safe and sound in our new home. Lindsey…

  • Adam & Dave, This One’s for You.

    I have failed. let you down. I let one big life changing event happen in my life [full story] and what happens? I give up posting daily on my stay at home adventures with Jackson. Is this defeat? No. But I must grow strong and get back on my feet and rebound as the victorious…

  • Newest Chapter – The Howells are Indiana Bound.

    You read that right. Here very shortly the Howell family will be packing their bags and starting a new journey as we move and start a new life in Indianapolis. Today we put an offer on a ranch home in Carmel, a suburb of Indy. To some of you this is surprising news, to others…

  • Still Here..

    Yup, the Howell family is still alive. I’ve had to put my blogging adventures on hold temporarily. There is a lot of exciting things going on right now that I promise I will discuss on here soon. We had a busy weekend, and we have another busy evening tonight. Please keep the Howell family in…

  • It’s Snow Big Deal.

    Today was another storm. I guess I’ll have to get Jackson out in this winter  wonderland tomorrow to play. We ended up having to drive in it today. I’ll admit, I freak out driving in the snow. It’s my weakness. I hate driving in it, I hate thinking about driving in it, and it literately…

  • Home is where the Heart is.

    Today was a tough day. Jackson was really testing my patience throughout the day and needless to say on top of that myself and my family have had a lot on our mind. It always seems that during these times things break either around our house or one of our vehicles. Today it was our…

  • Dinner with the Howell’s

    One goal I have (well, more so a requirement depending on who you ask in the family) is that I will be cooking most most meals now for our family during the week. As in all reality, it’s only fair to Lindsey that after a long day of work she can come him to a…

  • Everyone Loves a Paci.

    This post is a little late tonight, but I’m recovering from quite a weekend. After my last post, I suddenly came down with some sort of stomach bug and was up all night sick. Luckily for us I was at about 85% recovery on Saturday night and we were still able to make STOMP at…

  • Cleaning, not my strong suite.

    I will say by starting, the house is picked up at the time of this writing. However, cleaning around the house truly is not my strong suite. It doesn’t help the fact that our dishwasher is broke. Don’t worry, this is a common circumstance at our apartment. Our washer works for a little bit, then…
