Man this site is slow! It's really been driving me nuts. I can't imagine actually wanting to browse this site for pleasure knowing how slow it is. I'm looking at getting a new host pretty soon. Apparently, the host I'm with right now has crappy database support, and this site runs software that relies heavily on php and a database. So anyway, I'm going to switch web hosts to a new one that has better database support. It'll be a few months, but when ...

So tonight we're all in Maddie's bedroom getting ready to say our nightly prayers and put her down to sleep, when I notice this rank smell. I said, "Maddie, did you fart?" She said, "no!" I said, "What is that smell?!" And without missing a beat, Maddie said, "It's my poop!" She had just finished pooping in her diaper, and had no reason to hide it! Just thought you all would like to know that.

Hey guess what. I've got enough people bugging me about updating the website, that I'm actually going to do it! Not much, as I'm at work, I only have a few minutes, and don't have many pictures at my disposal, but I thought I'd at least give a little update as to what's been going on for the last few months.
Well, Ryan is growing like a weed. We're pretty sure he's going to catch up to Maddie's size in less than a year. He's ...

Alright, it's been like a millennium since I've posted anything out here. Well, with the addition of a second child, I guess life kind of just goes that way. Plus, I think for every minute I spend on the computer, Dixie's stress level goes up a notch. So needless to say, I haven't had a whole lot of time on my hands. Since the last time I've written, quite a bit has happened. For one thing, Ryan was born! Ryan Allen Packer. He ...

I usually reserve this kind of stuff for the brain cell bucket, rather than cluttering up the front page with dumb videos, but this one was so good, I had to make sure you all see it. This is a great Saturday Night Live clip for any of you out there with debt problems. Puts it nice and simple for those of us who are financially challenged. Enjoy!

Dyan gave me this picture of her lying down on the tennis court. Looks just like she got rolled over by the painter! Good one Dyan.

Well, not literally. But this dude is leaving the grave shift behind forever! You heard me right, I got a new job. For those of you who don't know, I work at Hill Air Force Base as a civilian contractor, and for the last two years, have whittled away the night hours staring at a computer screen. I've been looking for a new job pretty much the whole time, while not very proactively I'll admit. But anyway, I obtained a day position here at the ...

I've been slacking terribly on this site. Partly because not much has been happening, mostly because I'm lazy. However, we have had a little update on the baby's progress. Unfortunately, the little tyke is following in his older sister's footsteps. It seems that Dixie's placenta starts to misbehave in the later stages and starts restricting blood flow to the baby. It's not terribly serious, but in Maddie's case, it did cause her to stop growing and they suspect she might have even started losing weight. ...

Ayden turned 1 year old a bit ago, and Shalamar sent me some pictures of his birthday party. I've added them to the Brent Packer Family album. After adding them, I realized that half of them are of Maddie, so I think some time I may remove those ones and put them under the Maddie album. But anyway, here are a few of the pictures I've added to the album, or you can just
click here to go straight to the album.

So I thought I'd give you all a little peek at our developing baby boy. The picture you see is from Dixie's ultrasound appointment this morning. He seems to be a little camera shy. But hey, you get a good shot of his fist! We thought he was going to be a soccer player, but maybe now a boxer. The was taken with a new method called 4D Ultrasound? I'm not quite sure I understand ...
