I do not beleve you have realized love’s full potential until you are able to love your own child.

I am thankful for Abigail and Porter and for Shannon, who has done such an amazing job raising them. Shannon has a great post about the kids on her blog:

Abbey, you are our little half-pint. You are smaller than your brother but only by about 4 pounds. You are dainty and have the softest touch.

I finally had time to do a complete overhaul for my portfolio/blog here at Stubby Studios. I’ve been working very late nights on various projects and tutorials.

Leave a word on what you think of the new look. Thanks.

I was listening to my The Shins station on Pandora and this catchy band I’ve never heard of, Don DiLego, comes on. The song was “Falling Into Space.” I loved the song, so started digging a little further and it seems Don is not signed and actually has his own label, Velvet Elk.

Of course, once I found the Velvet Elk MySpace page, that only led to more awesome music with Beautiful Small Machines. Either Don is in that band or they are just on his label. I can’t tell, but all of the music from both bands is superb.

Really some of the best stuff I’ve heard in a very long time.
