Dispatches from home

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

So, G is still at home with J. He only has one more week left before he has to go back to work. :(

I had originally requested when he started his paternity leave, that G send me a picture occasionally as I knew I would miss being home seeing J throughout the day. The picture in the previous post and the following one of him trying to escape his bouncy chair are both good examples of the pictures I get of my cute, happy baby.


However, today I got one from him in an email with the subject “wish you were here.” I wonder why G wanted me at home today?

Can you figure it out? Because I just don’t see it…

Something you weren’t expecting to see…

Ever wonder what my husband would look like pregnant and drinking a large glass of milk? Me neither, but we get to see anyway!

The House of Snot and Phlegm.

It is official. All three of us have a cold.

J went down first, catching it from Gammie while we were at the hockey game Saturday. Then, of course, I immediately caught it from him (I have a hard time avoiding all the drool bombs he drops on me). G looked like he might fight it, but woke this morning with quite the manly voice (i.e. all deep and phlegmy).

So, come to our house at your own risk.

G and J in healthier times. (Just ignore the devil baby red eyes.)

Back to the Grind.

Monday, March 10th, 2008

Well, my baby vacation is officially over. When I had J, I took the usual 12 weeks of maternity leave (I can’t believe it has already been 12 weeks!) and G only stayed home for the first week or so. His time was so short because now he is taking over baby duty!

Today marks the first of 8 weeks that he will be staying at home with J. Cool, right? I think it will be great for them to get some good time in together (with G working full time and in school full time, they didn’t get a lot of time together before now). And judging by this picture I took of them together over the weekend, they are going to have a lot of fun without me!

Super Baby!!! (We just need this now.)

Adventure!

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

Last night we finally did it! We left J with his Gammie (my Mom) and went on an adult adventure. We ended up going to a Portland Winterhawks game! The game was good, we won, and there was a respectable amount of fights. :)





(I know it is hard to tell from this last picture of L, but no one was drinking…)
