Thank you to those who helped raise money for Cancer awareness and research. Thanks also to those who have supported the stache with kind words, interest, and stares. I don't know how I will will feel when it is gone tomorrow...will my nose and lip feel a little lonely? Will I begin my winter beard a month early?

Only time will tell.

Movember update



For those of you following along, I started growing a mustache 16 days ago. Some of you may think this is silly and it is but it's also for a good cause. As you may recall from an earlier post this was for a great group called MOVEMBER.

I'm only half way through the month and trying to raise money for Cancer awareness and research in memory of Mandy's Father and Grandfather("Papa") both of whom lost their battles with the disease.

Thanks for the support!

Here is what we've been up to lately...

Practicing saying "cheese" and looking at the camera.


Cohen wanting to be like Daddy.



Going to the zoo.
(over and over again...I haven't been very creative lately)




Being silly.


Playing a lot of ball.
(in the house)


Being silly again.
and again.


Reading books really early in the morning.


Making sweet little boy faces.


More "cheese" practice.
Can you tell he's getting better?

What do I do with the changing table?

Cohen's changing table is just taking up space in his room. We never use it for changing so I thought I'd reassign it's duties. One day I put all of Cohen's stuffed animals on the top shelf. Several minutes later I went back into Cohen's room and found this...



I'm trying to figure something else out.

This is one of Cohen's favorite things to do lately...

Movember participation

This weekend I decided to use my natural facial hair growing abilities by joining a friend's group for MOVEMBER. This month, the month formally known as November, I will be growing a mustache and I am hoping that you will support my efforts by making a donation. The funds raised go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LIVESTRONG).

What many people don’t know is that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime and testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 18-35. Facts like these have convinced me I should get involved.

To make a donation, you can either:

• Click this link http://us.movember.com/mospace/295562/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account , or
• Write a check payable to ‘Movember Foundation’, referencing my Registration Number 295562 and mailing it to: Movember Foundation, PO Box 2726, Venice, CA 90294-2726.

All donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

The Prostate Cancer Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer.

The Lance Armstrong Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund:

• The LIVESTRONG Young Adult Alliance program which has the goal of improving survival rates and quality of life for young adults with cancer between the ages of 15 and 40.
• Research initiatives to further understand the biology of adolescent and young adult cancers.

For more details on how the funds raised from previous campaigns have been used and the impact Movember is having please go to http://us.movemberfoundation.com/research-and-programs.

So Yes. I am growing a MUSTACHE.

Haven't decided on an official style just yet so let me know your thoughts on what might look good.

Day 1



And yes I did get Mandy's ok before I started.
