The board was set earlier this month, all the moving pieces in place, in preparation of tonight, which brings with it the premiere of the first Avengers movie since the last one. Seriously though, for dad, this was a huge night. Given the rough nights we've experienced this week (and how challenging it was to … Continue reading Year 2, Day 59

Year 2, Day 44
Miles had a bit of a "croupy cough" today, so Jaclyn took him to the doctor and kept him home from daycare. Not one to be deterred by illness, Miles was still plenty active when he woke from his extended nap in the afternoon. I left work early to help out so Jaclyn could get … Continue reading Year 2, Day 44
Year 2, Day 8
You know what's worse than taking care of a sick baby? Taking care of a sick baby while you, yourself, are also sick.

The temperature made us quickly reconsider our plan, and we instead headed indoors, where Miles found far greater contentment playing with his buddy, Jack. At least he's … Continue reading Day 329
Day 327

And as much as Miles likes to fuss when we put him down to bed, … Continue reading Day 327
