ETC2009 Student Research Poster

Every year the HCI department puts on a little shindig to show off the research, etc., that goes on there. It used to be the HCI forum and then it was up-sized to the Emerging Technologies Conference. At this conference the students are required to put up a poster on their research and stand by it to answer questions for an hour. Here is my poster for this year. Click on it to check it out in all of its glory.

Here is Henry saying his first official words.

He’s actually been saying “dada” for a few days before this (in fact, it is his only word so far). Unfortunately, Arwen gets no love, yet.

Cute Overload

Been a while. Here is some super cute kiddie stuff.

First we have Henry and his cousin Abigail playing with some blocks. My favorite part is when Abby lets loose with a little “don’t touch my blocks” yell.

Next is a pic of Henry and Abby together.

Here we have Austin and his drawing of Wall-E. The cool part about this was watching him make the drawing. At first he gave Wall-E the beady eyes and no wheels inside the tracks. Then he leaned back, looked at what he’d drawn and decided it wouldn’t do. Then he added larger eyes and wheels inside the tracks. He’s 7 and I couldn’t have drawn Wall-E better.

Finally, we have Ada fast asleep with her sandwich after a hard swim practice.

Ada’s 1st Swim Meet!

Last Saturday Ada swam in her very first swim meet ever! Below is a photo of her sitting at the edge of the pool waiting to start with her entourage.

And here we have a video of her performance (in there among the helpers).

X-mas and more

Busy, busy, busy! Here are some pics and vids from Christmas and thereabouts.

Here is Henry being cute. In the first one he has just sacked out while getting his fingernails cut. The next two are him playing on the couch.

Sacked!

Sacked!


Up yours!

Got my toes.

Hard to believe how old Edith is already, almost 10. I think that may be considered “preteen” nowadays. She’s doing her best to look and act the part.

She thinks she's grown.

She thinks she's grown.

This is what happens when you let a 4 year old run off without verifying that her new makeup kit is put away. She does make a pretty good Pris from Bladerunner though!

Here’s a cute little Christmas morning sequence of Henry playing with one of his new toys.

Mine?

Mine?


So mine!

So mine!


OM NOM NOM NOM!

OM NOM NOM NOM!

This first vid should be pretty self-explanatory.


Henry’s first gift unwrapping, ever! from Jesse Lane on Vimeo.

These next two are of our new dog Brownie. He’s an 8 month old toy poodle. We decided we could get him because he is non-allergenic and small, unlike our old dog Nip who we had to give to another family when it looked like Ada was allergic. That was a few years ago and Edie has never forgotten her. In fact, she got really sad when we were putting up our tree because she said that Christmas reminded her of Nip. I think Brownie is doing a pretty good job plugging that hole already. They’re inseparable, Brownie follows Edie everywhere. When she leaves he curls up on her shoes by the back door until she gets back. We’ll have to get him a hobby when school starts back up :smile:

Cute Fix

Been busy. Now that the semester is over I’ll give everyone a cute fix. I’ll try and post something more substantial later, maybe.

THANK YOU AMERICA!

I was going to leave it at that but I have to thank John McCain for giving such a gracious concession speech. He really went out with some class despite his audience.

Hope, baby!

Halloween

Here are some pics and vids from beggar’s night (Thursday here in Des Moines).

Here is Edith in her getup to go to school. She actually wore some makeup to look crazier.

Somehow I didn’t get Edith by herself with her actual costume on. They move around pretty fast at that age. You can see her in the group photos below. Anyway, next is Ada in her Fairy Princess costume.

The preceding pictures and those that follow were taken with different flash settings because I was playing around with my camera. You decide which ones are better. Next we have Henry the Lion!

Drum roll please…Here we have the cutest damn Punkin’ I’ve seen in a long, long while…Abigail!

Finally, we have the whole group.

I hope all of this sweetness doesn’t put you in a diabetic coma. I’m gonna go take some insulin myself. Adios.

It must be nice to be a baby. Laying around, being fed, getting bathed.
