Picky Eater

Ella used to eat pretty much everything we put on her plate. Now that she is three, she tends to be very selective about what she will eat. There are plenty of times when she will ask for a "staple" food and won't eat it. It is frustrating. Andrew on the other hand, surprises us … Continue reading Picky Eater →

Silly (and Spooky) Kid Stuff

If you are a parent, you know that your children are always a good source of stories to share. Here are a few of mine from the past few days: Tea Party Gone Bad While Andrew took a nap recently, Ella and I were in the living room playing with her Disney Princess Barbie dolls. … Continue reading Silly (and Spooky) Kid Stuff →

Morning Miscellaneous

The anecdotes in the blog today are a hodge podge of things that really wouldn't work as a complete blog, so I thought I would just throw them together here in one. Please forgive the randomness ... Missed Milestone Somewhere over the last couple weeks, I neglected to mark a milestone. I would have never … Continue reading Morning Miscellaneous →

Proud Papa of a Papper

My son, Andrew, has had a hard time sleeping since he was born. We took him to an ENT and they found that he had laryngomalacia. A sleep study was ordered and it showed that the laryngomalacia was leading to sleep apnea (That's what the photo above is). This led to a minor surgery to … Continue reading Proud Papa of a Papper →

I Forgot To Tell You

I'm finally getting back into a normal routine again. Last week I had a couple nights off work for Ella's birthday and all the days have been running together. Here are a few things I neglected to post about over the past couple days. PAP for the Little Man Last Wednesday, Andrew was back at … Continue reading I Forgot To Tell You →

She’s a “Threenager”

Yesterday, Ella celebrated her 3rd birthday. It was a pretty busy day! She woke up and had a breakfast picnic. Her choice of breakfast food? A grilled cheese sandwich! After I got home from a dentist appointment (that I should have cancelled), we piled in the car and we took a trip up to the … Continue reading She’s a “Threenager” →

A Fun Family Night

Because of work schedules, it is not often that I get a night with the family. I swapped nights with a coworker because I had hoped to go to a daddy daughter dance with Ella. Tickets went fast and I was put on a wait list for that, and it never panned out. However, the … Continue reading A Fun Family Night →

Hodge Podge of Highlights

The past week has been fairly typical. Nothing too out of the ordinary for me. There have been some nice highlights, however. Sunday, we got a little snow. Sam promised the kids that we could go out and play in it. So we all bundled up and went outside as the snow fell. Andrew LOVES … Continue reading Hodge Podge of Highlights →

Macaroni and Beans!

I have never been diagnosed with OCD. That being said, I do tend to be a creature of habit. I tend to take the same way to work every day, I like my coffee the same way every day, and such, but I don't think I am OCD. My books and DVDs are NOT alphabetized, … Continue reading Macaroni and Beans! →

Breakfast Fun

For the most part, it was a normal morning. Andrew was up first, followed almost immediately by Ella. As I was getting them out of bed, Sam came home from work. Sam recapped her night at work with me and the kids were taking turns being in her arms. During this time we asked what … Continue reading Breakfast Fun →
