Originally, this was just a straight-up blog. It was the winter of 2005 and I was a wide-eyed dreamer with much to say. Apparently, I got everything out within about 20 posts, because it pretty quickly started collecting dust (like 98% of all blogs). Those old posts are still here in the archives.

The next version of the blog was to record my wife Elizabeth and my attempts at starting a family. In our frustrations and failures, other people’s message board posts and blogs were extremely helpful in navigating our journey. Ultimately, it served as a way to keep friends and family updated on our pregnancy progress and boith of our first son, Luke.

These days I’m using it for anything and everything, and will also document the birth of our second son in December 2011 (that’s the plan, anyway).

In addition, I am a web designer. A portfolio of designs can be found at: www.carrierdesign.com.
