(Another post about poop, so if you’re not so inclined, you can skip it and just read the last one about how much I love Henry.) On Sunday Kristen was knocked on her butt with a nasty stomach bug, so bad that it didn’t really improve and she stayed home from work yesterday. (I’m sure [...]
A few clarifications and updates on previous posts. Yes, there’s a good chance we’re going to try and have a second child. Kristen and I love Henry, and even with all the “cons” out there, the “pros” definitely outweigh them and we’re leaning heavily toward making him a big brother. It’s just that I don’t [...]
I am loathe to admit it, but I’m a little superstitious. Every day I put my left sock on first, then my right, then my left shoe, and finally my right. Every day. I know that it doesn’t mean anything, that if I put the right sock on first, the world isn’t going to end, [...]
I love that Henry is a happy baby. He’s constantly smiling, hamming it up for one and all. I’ve heard horror stories from some parents about their babies being grumpy or crabby or angry or surly (or any of the other dwarves), and while our son has his moments with all these emotions (sometimes all [...]
Growing up, my grandmother would give my sister and me an allowance each week, a wonderful thing considering we had to do absolutely nothing to receive the cash. It started out as $2 and, by the time we hit high school, it was $5. With that bounty, my sister bought Led Zeppelin albums; I bought [...]
Every parent thinks that their baby is not just cute, but the cutest kid on the planet. And that’s completely justified. I mean, when Kristen and I first saw Henry, all red and crying and covered in his own poop, we fell madly in love with him and immediately proclaimed him the most amazing thing [...]
A couple of odds and ends today. Our diaper of choice is Pampers. Actually, we haven’t tried any other brand, but we’re happy with them. In fact, I’m sure that all diapers are equally good, equally absorbent (amazingly absorbent, actually). Have you ever felt a diaper completely saturated with urine? As heavy as they get [...]
A few exciting things happened this weekend. First off, we had our first overnight guest since Henry was born. Kristen’s father graced us with his presence and was immediately smitten with our son (who my sister is now referring to as Prince Henry, a name that certainly fits). The thing is, Henry knows how to [...]
Henry is happiest when he's looking at or playing with or reading about cars and trucks and fire engines and bulldozers -- pretty much anything with wheels or that makes a loud, growly noise. This book has all that (and if you're a little nutty like me, you can add the sound effects).
