Late nights. Weary-eyed mornings. It very well could sound a lot like my twenties, but yet it is something we’re doing all over again, yet completely new. That’s right. Our third child has arrived and it’s a girl…again! That makes us the proud parents of a five year old boy, a two year old girlContinue reading “It’s a girl….again!”

A Child’s Laughter
What’s that they say about a child’s laughter? There truly is nothing quite like it, I’m convinced. With both our little guy and the new little lady, we’ve been amazed at how early children start to shine through with their happiness, with smiles that light up an entire house with the mere stretch of aContinue reading “A Child’s Laughter”
It’s a Girl!
If I’ve failed to write as of late, it’s like the old saying goes, “It’s not you, it’s me.” Or blame it on the sleep deprivation. Yes, Meg and I have been up late once again, all for a wonderful reason – a little over a week ago, we welcomed our second child into theContinue reading “It’s a Girl!”
Ready or not, here they come
“You’re never going to truly be ready.” That was a piece advice given to me some years ago by a friend when I asked her how she and her husband knew when they were ready to have their first child. And she was right. No matter how much running we did to prepare for ourContinue reading “Ready or not, here they come”
Boxing up comics, unboxing me
Little by little over the past few months, we’ve been clearing out much of our home office, converting it into a hybrid office/nursery with the arrival of our newest addition. Packing books up, taking down wall art not quite suitable for a newborn, and taking the numerous boxes filled with comic books and packing themContinue reading “Boxing up comics, unboxing me”
A Headline of Some Importance this Mother’s Day (well, for us anyway)…
Here we go again. That media, making a big deal out of everything. Okay. It is kind of a big deal. 😉 Since we’re both pretty big fans of the satirical newspaper The Onion, this seemed like a natural approach for ‘the big reveal,’ as it were. Fortunately, our son turned out to have prettyContinue reading “A Headline of Some Importance this Mother’s Day (well, for us anyway)…”
Houston, we have potty
I’ll spare you the more graphic details, I promise. Suffice it to say, Santa brought the little guy a Baby Bjorn potty for Christmas and we’ve already started putting it to use. While at first, he just wanted to carry it around the house and use it as a convenient chair when he wanted toContinue reading “Houston, we have potty”
The voice from the backseat
There are few things in this world that can instantly put me at ease. As we inch closer to winter, the evenings have become darker all too quick and by the time I pick up my little buddy for our daily trek home, we’re among just one of many pairs of headlights shining through theContinue reading “The voice from the backseat”
“We thought we had lost him”
It all happened a week ago today. I don’t think Meg or I have ever had moments as terrifying as the ones we experienced last week. I don’t know how more bluntly I could put it other than, we thought our little man had left us. For me, it was Friday night and I hadContinue reading ““We thought we had lost him””
Exit, Stage Right
Before our son was born, my wife and I were very active in community theatre. Heck, that’s even how we met, both cast in the same show many, many moons ago. We were both, whether separately or together, in usually two shows a year, but devoting a lot of our time to the theatre whereContinue reading “Exit, Stage Right”
