The Viking Goes Into Battle

Dex — Sat, 19 May 2007 15:12:00 +0000

On May 18th, 2007, Leif William McFerson had surgery to correct his Pyloric Stenosis. The surgery was pretty straight forward, and Leif, as of the morning of May 19th, 2007, is back on breast milk.

Dr. German, a history buff, performed the surgery, and cut Leif's bandage into the shape of a Mariner's Compass. The good doctor was shocked to learn that most people Leif's mom and dad encounter have never heard of Leif Ericson.

The Christmas Card That Never Got Sent Out

Dex — Sat, 03 Feb 2007 07:02:00 +0000

Here are some finer points regarding the photo to the right:

- Dad, Ian, and Hyde, stood in line for 45 miserable minutes at South Coast Plaza immediately preceding this.

- Mom was at school studying for her 'final' final during this madness.

- Alison finished her Bachelors in Accountancy from Cal State Long Beach literally 3 hours after this photo was taken.

- This never got sent out, thanks to the professors at the aforementioned institution, and a preoccupied (read: slacker) father.

- It was worth it.

Family and friends, sorry for the lack of Christmas card -- we'll try to make it up to you next year. Except next year, they'll be 3 little boys sitting on Santa's lap. I hope he can handle it.

Christmas Trains and a Repeat Outfit

Dex — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 07:57:00 +0000

A couple of important things here:

Ian was the engineer for the day, and absolutely loved it.

Yes, dad still is sportin' some orthodontia.

See the lady with the stretch pants and Ugg boots on in the background, neglecting her kid in favor of her cell phone? Alison reports that she was spotted again at Fashion Island only a few days later with the same outfit on!

Hyde Hits the Bottle for the Holidays

Dex — Sun, 03 Dec 2006 07:46:00 +0000

Ian's Construction Contract Gets Cut Short

Dex — Tue, 24 Jan 2006 21:02:00 +0000

For those of you who have been following Ian’s work history, the office gig didn’t work out too well.

I guess Ian felt boxed-in working in a cube all day. Who can blame him? Well, it turns out his new job isn’t working out too well either, as his broken clavicle has forced him onto long-term disability leave.

Ian's First Broken Bone

Dex — Thu, 19 Jan 2006 21:01:00 +0000

On January 13th, 2006, Ian took a wild spin off the couch. This was nothing unusual, as he has done this countless times. What made this rotation off the couch unusual is that he broke his clavicle (collar bone) upon impact with the carpeted floor below. Check out this video which was recorded the following day after Ian’s triumphant return from the emergency room.
