"Look in the bathtub," Jaclyn said after I arrived home tonight. She took Miles to daycare today, and her usual morning routine had been beset by Miles's mischievousness. Knowing Miles pretty well at this point, I almost knew what to expect before I even looked in the tub. Yep, he has started moving balls from … Continue reading Year 2, Day 21

Year 2, Day 16
Well, what Miles lacked in crying last night he more than made up for this morning, breaking into an uncharacteristic sobbing session on the way to daycare. Normally, Jaclyn passes him to me on my way out the door, we say "Bye mommy," Miles waves, and we're off to the races. Today, upon finding that … Continue reading Year 2, Day 16

This is what I wake up to on a Sunday morning:
Day 348
I woke this morning to the sound of Miles's fussing piping through out baby monitor. It took me a few seconds of groggy semi-consciousness to realize that I hadn't also heard a "Can you go check on him?" coming from Jaclyn. I rolled over to find that she had already gotten in the shower, and … Continue reading Day 348
Day 345
Tragedy struck this morning, as Miles clawed his way over to my coffee mug and managed to tip it over just as we were getting ready to walk out the door. Fortunately, all of the liquid spilled away from him as the mug went spinning across the floor, and Jaclyn and I worked in concert … Continue reading Day 345

I had an early meeting this morning, and Jaclyn and I decided it would be best if we waited until after that to take Miles to daycare. It felt weird leaving first thing in the morning without Miles in tow, and it was a little more difficult getting out the door with his smiling face … Continue reading Day 295
Day 258
The first thing I heard upon waking up this morning as Jaclyn lounged in the bed with Miles: "Did you poop or is that just your daddy's breath?" Great start to the morning! (To be fair, he hadn't pooped.)

Sunday morning vibes at Rhino Market:
Day 201
When I was in the bathroom getting ready for work this morning, an unmistakable "BEEP-BOOP-BEEP" sound drifted in from the bedroom. I didn't think much of it at first; after all, the tones accompanying the pressing of a cell phone keypad are commonplace, even first thing in the morning (knowing Jaclyn). But this...started to seem … Continue reading Day 201
Day 171
Miles may have not slept well in Denver, but boy is he making up for it this week. He has slept like a rock the last two nights, to the extent that this morning it was nearly impossible to even get him out of bed. With limited time available before I had to be out … Continue reading Day 171
