Hi my name is Vince. I will crush you.

"But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1,000 miles
To fall down at your door"
~ The Proclaimers, 500 miles

So the big news is that Vince started walking. I wasn't sure when to actually make this announcement official. He started taking a few steps 2 weeks ago. And he still prefers crawling, but he made it all the way across our living room yesterday. I figured that was good enough.

Here is what it looks like.




We're excited. So is he. Now I can finally start training him to shoot a rubber ball through a metal hoop. I bought all of these when Vincent was still living in Jennifer.

The other big news, was that Vincent's Ninang came all the way from Thailand on a visit. We enjoyed the company. Vincent enjoyed being able to crush someone other than his mama and papa for a change. He and Gabriel took turns crying through the night. (Gabriel was jetlagged/ Vincent got another pesky ear infection) I was amazed that Cuya Ethan and Ate Megan could sleep through it all.











The other other big news was that Vincent has a new friend. Ms Chloe Phan decided to jump out of her mom on June 9th. Chloe's dad has already warned Vincent repeatedly to stay away from his daughter. You can check out her story HERE

Here is Vincent getting a little too close to Chloe




The other other other big news was that one of Vincent's buddies finally made it home from the hospital. Rees is a bit of a miracle baby, but he still has quite a battle in front of him. Please keep him and his family in your prayers. You can check out his story HERE.


That's all for now, I'm deeply involved in some Guitar Hero'ing.

Here's a video of Vincent discussing his stance on the US involvement in Iraq and the looming troop withdrawal. I think Vincent foolishly fails to acknowledge the ever present threat of Sunni aggression in the burgeoning Shia republic. So much to learn. oh well, he's just a kid
