So I haven't blogged since before Christmas, I really do want to get better at this but just haven't taken the time to do it. So here I am now to talk about all that has happened since my last post. Forewarning, this post will be long :) Thanksgiving... So Thanksgiving was at my sisters house in Salem. We stopped by Ryan's Aunts house on our way up to Salem to visit for a little bit then we

I realize I haven't blogged since our trip to Idaho, which was September... I thought I would blog more once I had Desmond because I would actually have something to blog about, which is true, but I still don't blog. So here I am trying again... So since September we have had Desmond's first Pumpkin patch trip, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. We went to the pumpkin patch with Grandma and Grandpa

So we decided to go on a trip to Boise to visit my parents and Des needed some Grandma and Grandpa ( I am thinking Nana and PopPop would be cute for Des to use when he can talk :) ) Mellen time. So we flew to Boise, Des did really well on the plane he nursed when we took off, fell asleep, woke up about 10 minutes before we landed, smiled at everyone on the plane, I was very relieved he didn't cry

Desmond went for his 2 month check up on Thursday. He is 13 lbs 7 oz, 25 inches long, and his head is 39 cm, he is a big boy! Which I figured he was since he is already wearing 3 month clothing.Dr. Wong said he was healthy and a very good boy because he was so happy at the appointment. I think Des is going to be a big flirt, he smiled at the nurse and she thought it was SO adorable. I am going to

I have recently started cooking real dinners, Desmond is a little older now and it is easier for me to have time to prepare dinner. I have been expanding my choices for meals as well as making up my own recipes instead of following one, which has turned out okay... I still need practice. I notice that when I am looking a recipes in books it tends to cost more to make the meal because I have to go

I thought I would share some pictures of Desmond and the pups. When we first brought Desmond home Chewie (the Chihuahua) was fine with him and became very protective of him, and to this day he is still his protector, he loves sleeping at his feet at night and growls at Buffy when she gets too close. Buffy (the Pug) on the other hand was crazy excited when we first brought Desmond home, she wanted

Ryan and I decided to take Desmond to the coast for his first beach trip/trip ever. He actually did pretty good on the car ride there, but the way back home he was not happy about being in his car seat. We went to Mo's and then to the outlet mall, of course Des was the only one that returned with anything; there is no way to not buy baby clothes, they are just too cute! He enjoyed the trip for

It has been a LONG time since I last blogged, so I am back! My goal is to start blogging more since I am a stay at home mom for a while and I might have time to now, that is if Desmond decides to start taking longer naps anytime soon :) So here's the updates, starting with Desmond's birth. It all started June 14th at 1 am, my contractions were about 25 minutes apart, so I didn't really get to

I have 2 weeks to go, and then we will meet out little baby Desmond. I am getting very impatient and want to see him now, I am going to try and staring doing more brisk walking and maybe attempt to jog a little bit on Friday to get the process started, next post will probably be pictures of Desmond.

So at 4:45 this morning our little baby boy kicked me, I haven't really felt anything until now. I had no idea how blissful it would feel when I actually felt him kick me and I was able to put my hand on my belly to feel it, it was AMAZING!! I was about to wake up Ryan, but then he stopped kicking so I decided to let Ryan sleep. Hopefully next time he will be awake when the baby kicks. Does this

Hey all we are having a house warming party Sunday the 27th at 4:30 pm. We will have hamburgers and hot dogs, if you want any other type of meat bring it! Same goes for drinks, we will most likely just have water and some type of soda like sprite, if you want something else to drink bring it! And of course don't forget to bring yourself (all children welcome). Call for directions, and RSVP by

The major date and time being this Sunday, July 13th, starting at about noon. So far, we've got some people on board to help - mostly just with the heavy lifting. The plan is to rent a U-haul to try to get as much done

Jump on it: After such a busy weekend, I have become quite bored during the time I haven't been busy, a.k.a. now. Once you get used to doing something most of the time, it's hard to just do nothing (not the case when you get used to doing nothing, then it's hard NOT to do something).

Once again, festivities will kick off at 7:00 PM with the ordering of the pizza(s?) followed by the watching of the movie at roughly 8:00ish PMish. Whether it's 5 or 15 men, I hope to see everyone of you non-lady-types here tonight. This

Hey everyone, Ryan and I were wanting to see if anyone wanted to go see "The Bank Job" tomorrow, Friday the 7th, at 7 pm @ Carmike. It is suppose to be a good movie, so since this is one of the fastest ways for people to hear about things we decided to post it instead of calling people. Let us know if you are coming or just show up! Also if enough people want to go we could all go to dinner too!

Gather around readers, for I've got a story to tell. Thanks to the participation by many in the comments (it will reflect on your participation grade for the class), I have something to blog about. That being said, let's get started!----------------------------------------------------------------------Submitted for the approval of the midnight society, I call this story... "Tale of the 80's."

You heard right! Due to our lack of children, traveling, and much else besides school and work - I'm giving you, the reader, the chance to choose what I, Ryan, write about. At moments such as now, I have plenty of time to blog but nothing to blog about. Let me remix that, I have stuff I 'could' blog about, but don't think it would be of interest to most people. Since I see blogs as more

I know I missed you all's. I've noticed some lulls in the land of the blogs, so I've come back to do my part and help. First things first, I should probably catch you up to speed. So what have I, Ryan, been up to recently...To begin, I feel I should share that I've been playing a lot of 'Jim Roe: The Video Game' as well as seeing his biographical film this past Friday with the men of the

So I went to my advisor today to make sure I was on track to graduate, and I was helped by an advisor that was not my usual advisor. He proceeded to tell me that the only classes I needed to take spring term was a bacc core and my internship, at this point I was super excited because I thought wow 6 credits, little did he know that I already took 6 credits of the internship this past summer, and

Hey everyone, it is me Jaimie, amazing right?! TWO posts in a row by lil' 'ol me :) I was reading over everyone else's blogs and decided it was time for the Winklepleck's to post again. School started today, Ryan and I both had a full day of classes. I went to all of mine, and liked all but one, History 102, so I dropped it and decided to take a Health class instead because I thought I would

Hey everybody, it's me Jaimie. Here I am blogging for maybe the second time. Christmas was great, it was so much fun to see all of the family together, and it was also a lot of fun seeing Ryan's family. Anyways back to the reason I am posting, as you can see from the picture above I got Ryan 'Rock Band' for Christmas, he was very unaware of it the morning of. For a little explanation, I convinced

'Tis officially the season, and as an early gift I offer the first and possibly last post of the month. Not only that, but probably the last post of 2007 at the rate that I've been posting. As always, my deepest apologies for my lack of updates. There's not really an excuse seeing as we've been on break for the past couple weeks. Nonetheless, I return bearing Christmas cheer and my usual mix

The past weekend was quite fun with the right amount of fun, relaxation, and boredom to boot. For the sake of this post and simplification, I'm going to include last Friday and this past Monday as part of the weekend. Also, for the sake of effectiveness I'm going to refrain from hyperlinking within this post like mad (ex: more than twice). By doing so, the lack of such expected effects will

I present the eighth wonder of the world - a Hawaiian sunset! Courtesy of our honeymoon, video camera, and a tripod.(Note: the audio is from one of my favorite television shows on the air and the video has been sped up so that 45 minutes is now only 45 seconds.)Unfortunately, that opening is probably as exciting as this post is going to be.

So if you're the plaided one in this picture then DO NOT CLICK ON ANY of the links below. As before, everyone else is welcome and encouraged to click away. Otherwise, to keep things on the hush hush, I refuse to say much else.Now that Pete knows to stay clear, I hope everyone else

That's right, after weeks of anticipation (month's for some) it's almost time for... college! What did you think I was going to say? The Heroes Season Two premiere? Well then, you should be correct because that is way more worthy of anticipation. As you can see in the picture above that accompanies this post, we are almost fully prepared. The final pieces to our puzzle include a super hero,

Here's the post all you heroes have been waiting for! A couple times in a couple previous posts I have brought up a little info. regarding our 'Heroes: Season Two' Premiere Party. As of tomorrow, September 14th, it will be exactly 10-days until the premiere and the party. What that means is that on Monday, September 24th, 2007, we need some people who understand that with great power comes

Before I begin the ending of our camping adventure that was roughly a month ago, I just wanted to thank everyone who left Jaimie a supportive comment in my previous post. She is doing better, and at the moment continuing her recovery at Togo's. Also, we made it to the final episode of Friday Night Lights - Season One, and if you liked the movie by the same name or just football movie's (whether

As you have no doubt noticed by now, neither Jaimie nor myself has posted for almost a week. Unfortunately this one is going to be quite brief, Hanes style.First, Tuesday came and went as Pete and I reinacted Frankenstein with his MacBook playing ol' Franken. The good news is that his computer is probably in the best shape it has ever been after it's Extreme Makeover: Notebook Edition. On a

Labor day may be a holiday from work, but not blogging. Then again, I thought I had work today until I showed up to campus and realized it was closed. Since I was already prepared for work this morning, Jaimie and I decided to make a day of my day off (unfortunately not a night as well since she is at work as I write this).There were two types of days we could have enjoyed. The first being

So I have finally had some time to blog again, with many requests and a reminder by Ryan. We are currently making our way through the first season of Heroes so that we are prepared for the season premier of Heroes this Fall. So far I have to say the show is pretty amazing and entertaining. There is not much going on besides being asked to come into work early for the past 3 days, and not enjoying

Whoa there, what happened to Tuesday? A day without a post from Jaimie nor I, how can it be? Time to fix that starting right now! Unless you want to hear about my days at work, I'll post something a little more intriguing. It has been a while since I've posted about news, especially in regards to Apple, so let's start there.Rumor has it that Apple is set to reveal some new iPod(s) next

After much anticipation I am finally going to post on our blog. I am done with my internship at Kid Spirit so I will have a lot of time on my hands. Other good news that many of you may have already heard is that I got a promotion at TOGO's, very exciting! I am now a shift manager. This will be all for today, I will try not to leave all the posting to Ryan, all though I do believe that he is much

All seemed well for our travelers last time we saw them. Due to a series of unfortunate events however, it was not meant to last. Those events went something like this: (To the chorus of 'Back at One' by Brian McKnight)One, unleashed dogs except Chew.Two, Bubba's name rang out through.Three, comes a running Winnie,then Chewie's leash is pulled tightly.And four, ropeburns on Jaimie and me.Five,

That's right - thanks to some technical help from Mr. Bain, we have opened up the flood gates to allow non-registered comments. Now that anyone can leave a comment, and I see some anonymous folks already have, we hope that you will as well.This post serves to inform our avid readers of that fact.

I'm going to interrupt the regularly scheduled post of this past weekend's camping excursion to bring you these breaking news stories that brought a grin above my chin.First - according to Variety, my favorite TV star (or starlet) of recent years Kristen Bell (aka Veronica Mars) was added to the cast of Heroes as a guest star in a reoccuring role. You and I should be able to catch her this

Due to Jaimie feeling a bit under the weather today, and what Oregon-like weather we've had, I will let her rest (and continue watching Point Pleasant) as we continue our series of (super)action and (mis)adventures. Maybe I'll even get around to posting a commercial-break with some of the things that have been floating my boat (it's a battleship incase you were wondering) since returning.

I hope that picture of Chewbacca (Chewie) didn't scare you away. He's pretty fierce and we all know that it's not wise to upset a wookie.Continuing on our journey, we find our protagonists beginning their trek over 4 miles of wilderness trails in a hike to save the world! Maybe "save" the world is a little over the top, let's go with "see" the world instead. Early on, such obstacles (or sights

I can't say much about the camping trip I'm about to embark on now, because it's currently in the future. Once it's in the past though, I'll aim to post a recap. For now I will tell you that I am going with the in-laws to the Metolius River for a few days of fresh

Well dudes and dudettes,Yesterday I was unable to post regarding this but now that it has sunk in, I'll give it a go. Apple Inc. introduced some new and unfortunately-expensive goodies. Among which included new iMacs, Mac Minis, and software. My budget limits me at iLife '08, but I'll give iWork's demo a spin. The new iMacs look gorgeous, excluding the glossy screen with no option for matte (

Odds are that if you're here, you know us. If you're against the odds, then my name is Ryan and my wife is Jaimie.
