I have now been pooped on!

Yes, it’s official, I have been pooped on by my wonderful child. Here I am sitting in the bedroom, all nice and cozy, breastfeeding Dylan, when all of a sudden I feel something warm on my leg. I though, what the %@#&, did I just have a major milk letdown or something? So I reach [...]

Almost three weeks old

It’s Sunday and tomorrow Dylan will be three weeks old. It really is hard to believe that the little guy is already getting closer to the month old time. In fact, it’s a bit frightening. They say that times flies by faster when you have kids and I am beginning to see that. Generally speaking, [...]

Two week update

Just a few quick updates. Dylan is two weeks old today. Man, the time is going by fast. He had his first doctor appt today. He has grown an inch already and is now at 22 inches. And he is up to 7lbs, 11.5 oz. This is very good. They want babies to reach their [...]

Two weeks tomorrow

It’s hard to imagine that we have had the little guy now for two weeks. Tomorrow he goes to see his doctor for his 2 week checkup and we also get his hip looked atagain by the orthopedic surgeon. Nothing to worry about. He had a look at the hospital and said all was fine [...]

To Matt

Matt, Thank you for being such an amazing husband and father. You have given me the best gift that I could have ever asked for. You have given me a son. I love you both dearly. Tamara

A letter to Dylan

Dylan, My baby, you are one week old today. I can’t tell you how blessed I am to have you. I love to hold you in my arms and snuggle with you. You are an amazing little man. I have heard it said that babies pick their parents. If this is true, I thank you [...]

A week old

He’s a week old today and I think things are going good. But there have been a few moments. If you don’t have kids already, then maybe this won’t make much sense, but the last few days have seen some pretty hard times for poor old dad. Don’t get me wrong. I’m very excited to [...]

Our first few days home

We have now been home since yesterday afternoon and have had Dylan with us, on our own, for a full day. Let me tell you, everything has been going great. Sort of. First off, it was pretty emotional for the wife to realize that it was now our turn to try and take care of [...]

We are home

Dylan is home with us. We’re ok. More to come, I promise

A new era begins

There’s a proud mom and little Dylan. Before I go any further, I’ll let you know that you can check out some photos of this little guy on Facebook via this link. Now that I got that out of the way, time for some serious writing folks. Yesterday at around 9ish, Tamara woke me up [...]
