My Three Children

Here is my favorite picture of January. Havoc, Sawyer, and Duke hanging out on the floor. Couldn’t miss this photo op!

 

 

Mmm Mmm Eggplant Parmesan

Since I missed the nesting phase of pregnancy due to Sawyer coming early, I think my body is trying to make up for it. Since John has been home all I want to do is cook and bake. I think my food is delicious so I’m going to share it with the [...]

Monster having a little fun

We caught the monster in a good mood – good moods are quickly followed by really bad moods and sleep so it’s all a matter of having a camera in the right place at the right time. I’m home (obviously) and I’m enjoying every minute of it.

It’s definitely not the same

I know that Christmas is right around the corner but it sure doesn’t feel like it. Here’s why

1. You can’t see my building from space (it isn’t properly decorated) 2. I haven’t eaten 26,000 extra calories worth of sweets this month 3. Jessica and I aren’t working as a dynamic duo in the [...]

If only I got frequent flyer miles

I’ve been working quite a bit and by work I mean flying people and cargo all across the planet. I haven’t made it to across the Pacific ocean yet but I’ve crossed the Atlantic quite a few times in the past few weeks. Since I started this job and really started flying (about 2 [...]

On owning a home (and a line of credit)

On the 23rd of July I borrowed a truck and went to the lumberyard. Over the next 48 hours, with the help of my in-laws, we put in a wood fence that enclosed the back yard. Numerous trips were made to Lowes and Gray Lumber to get all of the necessary components. We put [...]

Woah!

For a while I was making a relatively decent attempt at keeping this site updated and then boom! My time got sucked away.

Let’s hit the details

1. We’re buying a house and should move in by the end of the month (as soon as the mortgage company gets their act together)

2. Jessica [...]

Almost through the first third

Jessica went to the doctor after work yesterday for a checkup. She said it was probably the shortest amount of time that she’s ever spent in a doctors office. She heard the heartbeat for all of three seconds, he asked her for a few questions, and they sent her on her way. She needs [...]

The BIG update

Presented in chronological order

January 10 – 2011

Jessica called me this morning. The first words out of her mouth “I’m pregnant.” Woah! That is one hell of a way to start a morning. We talked for a bit and I assured her that I was excited. In fact, I’ve had a hard time not smiling all day long. I am so happy about this. It’s going to be a bumpy nine months but I can’t wait for it. She told her best friend, Cassy, the good news and is holding off on telling more people the news until she gets official word from the doc. Life as we know it is definitely going to be different.

I’m going to be a dad.

Wow…
definitely pregnant

The new year has begun

Nothing much as happened worth writing about thus far since the year has begun. So, instead, I’ll do a quick recap of things that happened since my last missive.

Jessica and I had a very travel packed trip around the country so that we could be together over the holidays. I drove for [...]
