I learned a good lesson recently.
Well, I guess it wasn’t new. Let’s say I was reminded of a good lesson recently.
Since it involves a moment of personal vulnerability in someone else’s life, I’m going to leave out lots of details that would probably make it a better story and just cut to the chase. If [...]
For several weeks now, Steph has been going to a Tuesday night Bible study. That recently ended, but it has now been replaced with another Tuesday night meeting, so somewhere along the way, Tuesday nights have officially become “Guy’s Time” at the Riesland house.
From the minute I walk through the door on Tuesday afternoon, my [...]
I know there are a handful of dangling loose ends on ye ol’ blog… I’ve been staying plenty busy lately with some side-work and some really neat things that God has been doing in our lives! Plus, two parents training for a half-marathon with a very mobile little 9-month-old turns out to be pretty time-consuming!
One [...]
(No, not like that…)
Last week I was hard at work in the (home) office when Steph came home from running some errands.
She said there was something she wanted to show me.
I was a little resistant at first, because I didn’t want to loose my work momentum, and especially because she needed to use the computer, [...]
Alright folks.
After much sorting and deleting, here is our vacation through a lense.
A few of my favorite pics are below.
You can see more from Stone Mountain here, more from the Georgia Aquarium here, and more from the rest of our vacation here.
(PS – There are 28 pictures below, so please be patient if it takes [...]
We took a bazillion pictures at the beach this weekend.
Here are a couple more…
Josiah had his first experience with “solid” food about a week ago.
It was basically a couple teaspoons of milk with a little bit of rice cereal mixed in.
It was the first time he’s ever had anything edible in his mouth besides milk or formula, so he wasn’t quite sure what to do with it.
The whole [...]

I just dumped a memory card onto the computer, and we are way behind on our photos. In the past few weeks have been Dad’s birthday, Easter, the latest trip to Va, and Josiah’s first experience with real food.
So expect several photo-oriented posts over the next couple of days. (I’ll use this album as I [...]
Here are a couple of my favorite photos that we’ve taken around the house recently.
I just created a new album called “Josiah’s 5th Month” under our picasa web albums where you can see a whole bunch more.
Does he have the prettiest blue eyes you’ve ever seen or what?
For all the dads: check out this short (5-minute) video that my friend Eric pointed me to.
I really believe that the most important problem in our country, and even in the Christian church, is men not behaving like real men. It seems like most men live with this misconception that their career, ‘ministry’, and bank [...]
I just came across this “Ask Carolyn” letter on facebook.
Very, very true.
I took care of Josiah for about 6 hours one day when he was particularly fussy and I was ready to sleep for a week!
My hat’s off to all the mommies out there, especially my wife!
(I tried to link to the author’s page, but [...]
I stumbled across this photo when I was at Katie’s the other night. Apparently, even though I beg and plead for good pics, Katie’s the one who gets them…
That’s my big sis Jennifer with her husband, Moses.
They live — along with my five neices and nephews — clear on the other side of the country [...]
