It was a hellish weekend…not “somebody died from a rattlesnake bite to the face” hellish…just busy. Jack had a Basketball Tournament this weekend, some Christmas thing. It seems some parents think it’s great to have your child spend 3 days of the Christmas Vacation locked up in a gym. I had rather been at [...]

Yes, we went out last night…to an adult get together of sorts. My friend Doug invited us over for some gumbo and camaraderie last night. We haven’t really done that with the baby, either gumbo nor camaraderie, so we decided to go. We had a blast and Tony stole the evening. He’s just very laid [...] 1. It’s amazing how many things smell like baby poop…I think it’s just infiltrated my Olfactory Glands. 2. Strangers will fill free to interrupt your dining experience to see the baby. It’s like having a celebrity. 3. A diaper is not guaranteed to hold it’s contents. 4. Don’t worry, it won’t stain…much 5. You [...] I’ve been running errands almost daily. It always seems we need something for Tony. Things we had on the registry but didn’t get, or things we didn’t get before the birth, or things we just didn’t think about. Usually once or twice a day I kiss Sarah and Tony and head out. While I’m out, [...] “He’s a baby, we have to spend alot of time with him.” Says part time dad to 1st son “But you spend way more time with him than me.” I can’t argue this, and was waiting for this revelation to happen. I didn’t have anything prepared, but I was waiting, none the less. “Well, again, [...] Not a cowgirl name. It’s a description of our day… We went to the pediatric orthopedist. He was very optimistic about Tony’s leg. He diagnosed it as “Posteromedial Bowing of the Tibia”…um yeah. It is believed to be caused by the crossing of one leg over the other, cause one to actually form around the [...] So I am an evil person. I have a tendency to find humor in the misfortune of others. Schadenfreude. It will always come back. When I first started working at my current place of employment, we were at a different location. We could look out our loading dock door and see the parking lot of [...] So, how did you spend your first day home with the baby, super dada? Did you give Sarah lots of rest time? Did you play with and love that baby? Did you puke your guts out and quarantine yourself all day? Yep that’s the one. So, the first day home wasn’t exactly what I had [...] We’re in the recovery room. After 2.5 hours of pushing, James Anthony came into this world. He’s beautiful. He came out at 6:46 pm. Weighing 8 pounds 5 ounces. He was 20.5 inches long. We were listening to our song…”Auld Lang Syne” by Dan Fogleberg. It was one of the first songs we clicked about. [...] It the question on every one’s lips…I mean EVERYONE! Everyone at work, customer’s, friends, even random strangers on the street. This homeless guy approached me, and I was like “I have no spare change” and he was like “I was going to ask about that baby. Where is he?” There’s no baby! There never will [...] |
