Christmas 2009
Christmas, along with 2009 has come and gone. Wow, that went fast, it seems like the blink of an eye. Being a stay at home dad during the holidays is pretty stressful. Lots of Christmas shopping, cleaning of the house, wrapping of the gifts, decorating, baking, running countless errands. Lots of stuff to keep us busy.
This year was great. Seeing our little Marley grow up so fast, has been strange. Just last year, she was barley getting around, and now… well things are much different to say the least. She is running all over the place, and running our lives, and running us ragged. She is getting so big, and so smart, and so sassy. This girl is nuts over princesses, and princes, and singing, and telling us how it is.
Getting her to do what we want is getting harder, as she gets smarter and able to make more decisions… Marley is going to do what Marely is going to do.
She is getting really anxious for baby brother too. Oh ya… that’s another thing that coming. Any day now. The baby right now, not even born yet… is measuring about 9lbs. Its going to be a big one. I feel sorry for my wife… ouch. She’s super strong and determined, and ready for the baby boy. Still no name.
Everything is in place now. The bags are all packed, the room is ready, the swing, bassinet, pack and play, newborn car seat is hooked up, phone numbers on speed dial… just waiting for the words….”It’s time”
When She’s Pregnant Again
Lets just say, you are on vacation in Hawaii. Everything is going great. Just you, your wife, and your 13 month old baby, and the sun. You think to yourself… “say, when was the last time she had a period? Shit! Better ask!”
“Hey, when were you supposed to have your period?”
She replies…”a few weeks ago” sounding all happy and stuff
“What!? Ahh S#%t, are you fu*&%$g kidding me!”
So off to the grocery store you go to get the test…you get back to the room, hand over the test and… “+” is all that you see.
Well that is what happend to us a few months ago. The new little one is supposed to come on January 15 2010. Oh… and its a boy this time!
Looks like my job as a stay at home dad, just got a promotion.
