My boys are cuter than yours

October 11, 2007

I can appreciate a cute baby as much as the next guy, however, biased or not, it’s just plain fact that my boys are cuter than anyone else’s children. This is no claim backed by nothing but emotion but by irrefutable evidence that can be found below. Most mornings, Simon and Vincent eat breakfast at [...]

Back in the saddle

October 11, 2007

I have been finding it difficult to focus lately on just about anything. Partly because of my boys not sleeping well and partly because of other stresses – my sleep has been totally screwed up so, during the day, its all I can do to keep the kids entertained during the day. On the rare [...]

Vinny’s first Halloween

October 2, 2007

Yes, Vinny is almost 21 months old so technically this will be his second Halloween but for our own selfish pursuits (i.e. dressing him up in something painfully cute) this will be his first. Truthfully, I don’t even remember what, if anything, we did last year for Halloween but this year will be fun as [...]

Deerfield Fair

October 2, 2007

We spent most of the afternoon and early evening at the Deerfield Fair on Sunday. Initially we weren’t going to go but Mary’s sister and her family would be there so we thought it would be a good excuse to see everyone. Besides, Vinny loves his cousins! This was Vin’s first trip to the fair [...]

Need to pay more attention

September 27, 2007

On occasion, we let Vinny watch TV – usually one or two shows on Disney is all he gets for the day. The other day, we let him watch Shrek . . . oh my goodness we have created a monster. Now he goes around talking about Shrek and Donkey all day – asking for [...]

My 20 month old son loves Gwen Stefani

September 27, 2007

My son is infatuated with Gwen Stefani and it’s all my fault. Vincent, all of 20 months old, asks (several times a day) to watch either “Hee Hoo” (a.k.a. “Sweet Escape”) or “Tick Tock” (a.k.a.”What are you waiting for?” He will actually get up and dance along with it and try to sing along. Of [...]

Separation anxiety

September 25, 2007

It used to be that I was the only one what would get sad in the morning when Mary left for work. Partially because I know I miss her all day that she is gone and in part because I am disappointed that our plan failed. We had hoped to have her quit her job [...]

Cuddle, Cuddle!

September 6, 2007

My son has become a master of social engineering. At 20 months he knows what he wants and, if it is something he cannot get on his own, he knows that he needs to employ an adult to make it happen. A couple weeks ago, Vincent learned that is he asks for a “cuddle” then [...]

The light at the end of the tunnel

September 6, 2007

Make no mistake of it – I love both of my children and I think its awesome to have two little boys so close together (20 months and 6 months). Its fun to think that when my oldest, Vinny, thinks back to his childhood he will likely only remember having a little brother. He probably [...]

Never underestimate the benefits of personal hygiene

September 4, 2007

It happens to most stay at home moms and dads I am sure. As you go through your routine with the kids, a good deal of the day is spent cleaning (or re-cleaning). From baby butts to hands and faces, counter tops, floors, and dishes, so many things need to be cleaned. What I have [...]
