Test Utterz #1

My first Utterz post. Actually this is a guest post by Drew.



I love Utterz and have set up Allison with the ability to post directly to her blog and Flickr account. Very Fun.

New pics

Sorry that I haven't posted pictures in a while. Our computer went wonky on us. We still don't have photoshop loaded, so I can't add some of the pictures I really want to, but I have found a way to load some from my phone. So here for your viewing pleasure is Eva and her Daddy reading. I was running around getting ready for a baby shower this weekend but I had to stop and snap this shot; it just melted my heart.

Tummy Time

Eva did a little "Tummy Time" last week and I caught it on film - okay, memory card, let's not be too picky here, people! So today I have some photos of Eva holding her head up, drooling and looking like she just came off a three week bender. Enjoy our lovely girl!



She's so strong holding her head up so high!


A little drooly!


So expressive!


A little tired after all that work! Or maybe it's a milk hangover....

Not a resolution

Well, I'm not making a New Year's Resolution, but I do want to make more of an effort to use my blog and get photos of Eva up, especially when Drew is traveling. Yesterday I took some cute photos of Eva and Drew started pestering me about getting them up on my blog. So today I dusted off my Photoshop skills and got these photos touched up and uploaded. I took some cute ones today, hopefully they will be up tomorrow.

So for your viewing pleasure....

Eva smiles

I think I'm happy....

Yes, I'm happier.

I AM happy!

Eva at play - who let a three month old have a pen?


What are you looking at Mom?

What is this in my hand?

Really, what is this thing?

Oooohhhh... it's a snowman!

Baby Bennett is here!

Most of you have read about this on Drew's Blog already, but Eva Grace has arrived!! She's a week old today, having arrived October 10th at 12:04 pm with speed that shocked everyone. She was 8 pounds 5.8 ounces and 20 1/2 inches long.

Thinking Pink

No, it's not a commentary on Baby BenSpark's gender! It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month, silly!!!

This has been an important cause to me for a long time and I'm always happy to do what I can to support the cause and spread the word! So for the month of October, Sparky's View will be Thinking Pink.

And for the month of October (and always!) I'm asking you to Think Pink. Check out events in your area that support breast cancer research, read up on the latest work and news of Komen for the Cure, click daily at The Breast Cancer Site to donate mamograms to women who can't afford them. Do something this October to help the cause.

Dunder Mifflin Infinity

Our friend Maureen is applying to be a Regional Manager for Dunder Mifflin Infinity. Check out her post here: Schrute-mania and sign up to be an employee under her.

The details are vague, but it looks like this will be an online game, similar to the Apprentice online game. So check it out - and sign up to be an employee of Maureen's. She'll be the best boss you've ever had!
