Yesterday, I discovered that Matteo’s toes were at the tip of his Stride Rite prewalker shoes. Bad daddies. Anyway, after walking around the Lake today, we stopped in at the Foot Locker to get some new shoes for Christopher and Matteo.

It has started…
…and “why not?” We have been waiting for this day; it has arrived. We are looking to the incessant “why not, Dad (or Daddy)?” eventually to be followed by the ever popular, “Because I said so!” Yes, we are turning into our parents. Fortunately, at the moment, he seems to be satisfied with our responses [...]
The price of independence
Just the other day Christopher was taking a shower – this is not uncommon. We often put Christopher in the shower if 1) we need to clear his chest congestion, 2) reduce a fever, or 3) simply clean him quickly with little fuss. Back to the shower…as I was finishing brushing my teeth, I said [...]
What a dirty Easter Bunny
Christopher and I met Grandma Kathi, Great-grandma Dot, and Uncle Josh’s girlfriend, Valarie at Texas Roadhouse last night for an early Easter dinner.

What a year it has been… Today we spent the day playing, [...]
Waiting…
It is 7:10 a.m. I have been awake since 5:44 a.m. Waiting. Anticipating Matteo to wake, expecting a bottle. Yesterday, we fed Matteo the last bottle from the last can of powdered infant formula. For the last month, we have been mixing 1/2 formula and half milk in anticipation of this day. Today, we plan [...]
