Eve was up late and fussy last night, so I slept poorly.  Thanks to this, I didn’t get out to get my battery replaced today as I expected.  In fact, I didn’t really do much of anything.  Right now Tasha’s feeding the baby and I’m making some Pizza Rolls to sustain me until after Eve’s […]

We’re starting to get into a rhythm here at the house, and this schedule has me up at my normal hours getting Eve her late-night feeding.  I enjoy the bonding time, but it has (predictably) cut into time that I tended to work on side programming work.  That’s not a big deal, but today things […]

For some reason, Eve was restless last night.  All of her needs were met, she just didn’t want to sleep and wanted to be held all night.  I was up with her until about 3 am and then Tasha took over and had roughly the same experience as I did.  I was surprised to see […]

Today I began work on my second ukulele, this time it’s a project for my Dad.  He wanted me to make him a Grizzly ukulele kit but with some additional frills… different tuners and wood binding along the edges.  Today I accomplished the repetitive but relaxing task of sanding the kit parts.  While doing so, […]

Today my parents left for Illinois.  There was the required bawling session from my Mom due to having to leave the grandbaby behind, and they were on the road by 5:30 am.  The rest of the day was pretty mundane… we did some chores and some picking up that needed done, our Amazon Mom order […]

Tonight is the last night having my parents in town with us, and I must say it was great having them here to welcome Eve.  It always feels like home wherever they are, and it reminds me how much I miss my family when they are here or I am visiting them in Illinois.  I […]

Today was our first doctor visit over to Cornerstone, and it was pretty fun!  We also had a nice checkup with the lactation consultant,  who has really taken a shine to us and is excited when we show up.  The baby was really tuckered out after all this excitement and slept for around three hours, […]

Last night was our first night home with Eve.  She took to her new surroundings well, sleeping all night in her new crib with only minimal fussing when she was hungry.  Her jaundice appears to be going away quickly, thanks to copious amounts of diaper filling.  Tasha’s doing well, and we have been taking turns […]

One of the most fun parts of the pregnancy was the selection (and withholding) of the name.  Since Tasha and I decided to find out the gender of our baby, we elected at that point to keep the name and most details surrounding our selection to ourselves.  This was to keep one aspect of our […]

Tonight was my first excursion driving Tasha’s car on the open road!  We had truly spectacular winds today, with gusts exceeding 60 miles per hour.  Imagine my surprise when a guy driving ahead of me on a motorcycle BLEW OFF HIS MOTORCYCLE.  If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve thought he was on wires […]
