Favorites: ^top^
Food: We've cut down on the corny dogs, but he still loves them. Christopher is a pretty good food eater. He doesn't seem to crave sweets, which is good..

Toys: Christopher is really into Rescue Heros. He has collected quite a few of the action figures and received more for his birthday. He loves to play and is always doing some activity with his Rescue Heros. He also likes Legos and Hot Wheels.
Weather around Christopher's Birthday: ^top^

On the day of his party it was partly sunny and in the lower 70's. Absolutely beautiful. A cold front came through the night before his birthday and got down into the 30's. The day ended up nice with a high around 60. The chart below gives the current readings from his birthday plus the forecast for the following five days.

Typical Computer: ^top^

ComputeriMac

The fastest PC's now use 2Ghz Pentium 4s by Intel. Microsoft Windows XP is the latest operating system that was just released. It is now based on the NT platform and has a home and professional version.

Our home computer is still the old 233Mhz Pentium, 96Mb RAM, 15.5 Gb hard drive, 100Mb Zip drive.

At work I have a 1Ghz computer, 512Mb of 300Mhz RDRAM, 18Gb SCSI 10000rpm hard drive, 8x4x32 CD-RW drive, 250Mb Zip Drive.

Last November we got a digital camera. A Nikon Coolpix 880, 3.34 megapixal. Christopher's dad has really loved using it. It takes great pictures and the printouts look great. We've just finished our last roll of film and probably won't use film much if at all any more.
