The Quiet is Almost Deafening…

Do you hear that? Whats that sound? Is there a sound? NO!!! What an amazing thing to hear.. Nothing, nothing at all. 7yo is at school while the new baby, 3yo and mom all sleep on the couch. The silience is amazing… I will have to wake 3yo soon since he [...]

The Age of Unreason…

It Seems to me that 7 1/2 is “The Age of UnReason”
“Please stop putting that in your brothers face, um now…stop, please stop… STOP IT!!!”
“Stop watching TV and get your homework done, um now, stop, get your rear upstairs now, go, stop watching Tv and move it!”
Seems to me that as of late my [...]

Early To Bed…Ummm Yeah…

Well the boys got to bed pretty much on time tonight and I am going to be getting in bed shortly myself. After being up until 1:00 with a baby sleeping on me I am about to crash. It is wonderful to have the little man here, but the lack of actual sleep [...]

Getting Back to “Normal”

Well “Normal” is a relative term and when you talk about relatives nothing is normal.  Yesterday was the beginning of the first full week with the baby home.  Schedules are getting back on track and the boys are settling back in their “routine.”  With 3yo at preschool it has been strange to have the house [...]

Tears of My Son…

The Kick is up… It’s Good! The NY Giants Beat the Green Bay Packers in overtime…  My son now feels what most adult men feel as their teams lose the big game.  My team missed the playoffs after losing in the Super Bowl last year…  I am a Bears fan, but my son likes the [...]

Haircuts and other childhood Torture…

The whining started the moment haircuts were mentioned. 7yo did not what his haircut or to take an early shower, but he had no choice. I cut both boys hair and they have my haircut, short! I told 7yo as soon as he can take care of his own hair he [...]
