With my recent shows and general mommyness, I've been a very bad blogster. Dear reader, please forgive me.

So sit back and allow me to make ... http://david.dishmans.net/2008/05/14/blogs-ive-been-meaning-to-write/ On Saturday, Mommy was busy, so Daddy and Leif decided to attempt another adventure. It was 60 degrees at 9:00 am -- incredibly beautiful weather -- so we headed out the door to our favorite kid-friendly breakfast place in walking distance. When we got inside it was like 85 degrees. ... http://david.dishmans.net/2008/04/19/battery-park-with-leif/ Thursday was an incredible day. I swapped days off with a guy at work, so technically I was "off" (although I was answering emails all day...). Leif and I jumped on the F-train for an adventure down to Coney Island. After a 30 minute ride, we got off the train and onto ... http://david.dishmans.net/2008/04/15/warm-weather-and-a-viking-at-coney-island/ A week ago, Scott was in town for work.

Yes, that's all the way back to his ear. How'd it get there, you ask? For some reason, Mommy decided it was bath time after dinner. Leif liked that idea, although the flash from the camera started to annoy him... http://david.dishmans.net/2008/02/17/nasssty-hobbit/ You may know that I'm a choreographer and I'm working on a new show right now to be performed in NY and Atlanta this 2008...A friend of mine is composing the music for this piece (a first for me!), and last month the musicians came over for a first look ... http://david.dishmans.net/2007/11/04/a-few-bars/ So we've been incredibly lazy about blogging lately. Maybe it's because of Leif (he's walking), or RIBS (Elizabeth's other baby!). A lot has happened in the 3 months since the last post. Instead of trying to catch up majorly all at once, I'm going to let Angie tell you about ... http://david.dishmans.net/2007/11/01/miss-us-and-townsend-tn/
