I thought I would give a short update on how things are going for the triathlon before I go to bed.  Tonight we ran a simulated triathlon.  I actually was able to finish.  It took me about two hours to do the whole thing.

I feel pretty good at the moment, but tomorrow will be the real answer for how I feel.  I’m going to take some ibuprofen and go to bed.  Hopefully I’ll be able to walk tomorrow.  If not…..well….um…I guess I’ll have to borrow a wheel chair or something.

I thought I would include the video update from Tuesday for those of you that didn’t see it.  I hope you’re getting some enjoyment out of my pain….at least someone is.

Tech Wednesdy is back!  Well for now.  It has been a long time since I got my iPhone.  So long that the warranty has actually gone out on it.  So with that in mind I decided to jailbreak it.  Jailbreakng an iPhone simply allows you to do whatever you want with it.

You can put whatever third-pary programs you want on it.  You can access the OS.  You easily add new ring tones.  It is a beautiful thing.  But the most beautiful thing about it was using Pwnage Tool.  Pwnage Tool made what could be a headache of a process really simple.

I love my iPhone, but I love it even more now.  My favorite thing is the ability to do video with my phone now.  One of the first programs I installed was Qik.  It’s a program that allows you to do live video from your phone.  I’m loving it!!!!!!

If you have an iPhone and you aren’t worried about voiding your warranty, I highly recomend jailbreaking it.  If you decide to, use this guide.  It was really helpful and walked me through the process step-by-step (and it didn’t even have Suzanne Somers).

Asa is fast on his way to crawling.  I caught a little video of him army crawling the other day.  Just so you know, there is a littel surprise at the end.

As you know, we moved into our house back in Dec and have to make a lot of renovations. So Shannon and I  took this week off to try and get everything done. Here is our to do list for the week.

- turn half wall into full wall in master bedroom (frame, drywall, and mud)
- tear down fake brick chimney
- paint living room
- paint bedroom
- finish paint cabinets
- finish painting guest bath
- install bucket lights in kitchen

Shannon and I are trying to get this all done by Wednesday, because we head out on Thursday for our 5 year anniversary. Hopefully I won’t die by then.  My hands hurt so bad right now from swinging a sledge hammer yesterday.  It’s a lot of fun swinging a sledge hammer while you’re doing it, but you have a price to pay the next day for all the fun.

Nothing of the actual birth here…just some video that I took the day he was born.

Video from Asa’s B-day

Thought I would share some video of Asa in his Bumbo for the first time.  Pretty darn cute!

Asa in his Bumbo.

Just thought I would share some video that I took of Asa the other morning.  There should be more videos in the future now that I figured out how to do it all on-site.  Enjoy!

Asa In the Morning

Ok…I know I’m a day late.  But this is worth it.  My friend Dave Ortega told me about this one and I’m totally sucked in now.  It’s called PicLens.  You have to watch the video to understand.  I can’t explain it.  If you have FireFox, download it and start using it now.

Kinetic Church in Charlotte, NC had a trailer stolen that had 75% of everything the church owned in it.  Ok it’s not awesome that they got 75% of their stuff stolen, but it is awesome in how they responded.  They posted this video on youtube and also put up some billboards around town to try to get in contact with the thief.   They know the ultimate reason why they had the stuff in the first place.  I have to give the guys at Kinetic Church some mad props.  For what they did, I don’t know if I could have done the same thing.
