Saturday Mornings

Just another Saturday morning sitting here watching my kids learn to play tennis. It’s an amazing thing to watch. Seeing them enjoying a sport I learned to love in my teen years. So I’m glad that they are learning now.

People always ask if we forced them to play tennis, and most people are surprised that this is something they chose. Although Roslyn took about two years to give it a try, I’m glad she did. Our philosophy is that, left them choose something they want to do and they’ll stick with it. We hope that this turns out well. Either way, we feel that this outs them on a good path.


Liam is getting better

I meant to write this last night but I was too tired.

Got home early from work to help take of a Liam and to go the doctor’s office. Luckily, his slowly rising temperature from early in the morning subsided. By the time we got to the doctor’s office he seemed to be doing fine. Official temperature from the doctor was…. hmm.. i can’t remember, but he did say it was normal.

One thing I noticed is that when we put Liam down, or just about to put him down on to the exam bed/table, he starts crying. I think he now knows when he’s in a hospital or doctor’s office. He’s definitely afraid of people in green scrubs.

Anyway, Liam checked out ok. His doctor gave us 3 days worth of antibiotics, azithrmomycin. The only thing we need to watch out rashes on his head accompanied by a high fever.

Liam still seems a bit tired, but that is due to the antibiotics and his body fighting off an infection. Otherwise he’s slowly returning to normal.

We’re both glad that Liam is doing better. It was such a tough and trying weekend. Thank goodness we got through it. And for what it’s worth, i think we all came out stronger.


Holiday Season!

Holiday Season is literally just around the corner. So excited!


Going to be a busy year

January is coming up to end fast and there’s so much to do. We’ve gotten through the baptism, we got all our vendors lined up, invitations just came, and now its payments and then the big our big day in April.
This year will also be our first full year as a complete family. Last year we were so thankful for 2 beautiful gifts that we are blessed with. This year we look forward to celebrating our new life with them as well as expressing our love in front of the eyes of god and our friends and family.
This year is going to be exciting and challenging.


So much better

So glad that my mom is here to help out. Linette and I really need some rest. We actually get to enjoy this new sealy posturedic bed.

Going to be a long day tomorrow with all the cleaning and preparing for Thanksgiving. I want to try to make it as memorable as possible.


Long day

I really need to get to work early and setup this presentation for the chairman.

Getting to work 3 hours late is really and isn’t good for my reputation. I feel like that I have rebuild that again, but the hurdle is much higher now.

I’ll be coming up on 72 hours of no sleep now. I’m so tired that I’m to tired to sleep.

Well I hope it’s all worth it.

Well my Mom is here, I hbope that she is able to help. I really didn’t want to ask for help, but we’re at our wits end.

Did I say I’m delilrious? Can’t sleep, can’t think straight and I’m even forgetting things. Which is not good in my line of work.

I just hope that I can keep up this level of intensity without falling apart.

Have a good night all.


another night

2 more days before my Mom flies into town to help out Linette and myself. Its been quite rough with all the diaper changes, feedings, explosive poop, luckily haven’t gotten the golden shower, although it’s been really close.

Life has definitely changed since Liam and Roslyn have been born, other than the fact that i get no sleep, I actually find myself leaving work on time just to see their cute faces. It’s quite uncanny that Liam looks nearly like me at his age. I’ll post it up sometime.
It’s about 3:17am EDT and my alarm goes off at 4am. Maybe i should set it back to 5:30 and see if i can get some rest, but then again, that plan didn’t work at all yesterday as I was 3 hours late for work. Right now, i’ll be up for 48 hours with no real sleep. I wonder what kind of toll that will take on me…. only time will tell. All this so my wife can get some rest.
I know it sounds nuts, but… yeah, I am nuts, but I do love her that much and then some, even though i may not show it all the time… which leads to another subject, but that is for a different evening.
