This past weekend was no different than most. I did the laundry, dishes, and gave the dog a bath. I put together something from IKEA that should have taken half the amount of time it would have if the instructions had words to go along with the pictures. Nothing incredible, but the every day can […]

I love Saturdays. I always have. The reason I love them so much has changed since becoming a father, but they still rock!

Abigail and I celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary earlier this month. I find it incredible to imagine that it has already been seven years! Yes, our relationship has endured some difficulties, but I think those difficulties worked out in our favor in the end. Our marriage is a much stronger force to reckon with than it ever has been in the […]

Abigail and I went to our 2 year old nephew’s birthday party in Indiana this past Saturday. It was our first real outing with Wesley, besides going out to the doctor’s office or the grocery store. Now that I think about it that was his first time in Indiana!

I’ve been blessed to have been able to take two weeks of vacation to ease into fatherhood without the added stress of my day job. I go back to work on Monday and I’m not exactly excited about leaving my little guy at home. I know he’ll be well cared for by my wife. Abigail is […]

A week ago today my life changed forever. My son Wesley was born. I gained the life long responsibility of providing for, teaching and advising another person. It is still hard for me to fully take in the fact that Wesley is MY kid. Having Wesley at my house almost seems like an intense baby sitting […]

Our little Easter Bunny arrived on Sunday afternoon. Wesley was 8 pounds 1 ounce and 21 inches long. He’s got a pair of proud parents and lots of extended family excited that he’s here. A more detailed and photo filled post with our birth story will be shared in the near future.

Labor has finally started and we think things are going to progress. Off to labor & delivery we go now. Let’s just hope it doesn’t take too long. We’ve been waiting for this for months! Can’t wait to meet Wesley! Stay tuned to Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. We’ll keep you updated there along the way […]

Wesley is now a little over a week late. This last week has felt like a month! Every day seems to take forever now. Baby boy checks out fine. He’s passed a few non-stress tests with flying colors. The post-40 weeks ultrasound was also good. Everything seems to be in order. The midwives, nurses and doctors […]

I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of time-capsules. As a kid I participated in a few time-capsules at various elementary schools I attended. I wrote letters to my future self or future students to be read in the 2000s. I imagined those letters being read in a time of flying cars and space travel for the every […]
