Centenial Son-day

I had a "spring break" this past week. I put that in quotes because it was hardly a break. I worked on a few reports and dealt with more than a few other things. I think the only thing different was I went to the clinic less than normal. That's cool though, I enjoyed being away from the office.

I spent a ton of time with Jojo. Mo worked an extra shift on Thursday so I got an extra night with the little guy. What's cool is this past Thursday (if my count is right) was Jojo's 100th day of life (post-birth).

Happy 100 days!

St. Patrick Son-day

A few weeks back Jojo and I had our first weekend without mommy. But, it was kinda fake because Mo only worked Saturday night and she didn't go to work until 11pm. Jojo was well asleep by then.

The next weekend she worked my parents were here. That made my involvement in Jojo's care nearly pointless. It was super awesome to drive her to work and pick her up. Missed doing that.

This weekend, however, is truly the first weekend where Jojo and I are on our own. So how's it going?

Well, last night he was a turd.

"I was drunk, sorry."
Sometimes he likes to play with his bottle more than eat. He did that like every feeding. He normally goes to sleep quickly with little fuss. He was not interested in doing so last night.

It still wasn't hard. Even at his most turdly he's a pretty easy kid. He's continued the play-eating today, but seems to be getting back into eating for real. He's taking a good nap too.

Whatever he does tonight, it's been a ton of fun to just hang out with him a bit.

Grand Son-Day

So my folks came to visit us Jojo during their spring break. I'm happy to see them and they are thrilled to have some time with the little man. He seems pretty exited too.

"Help me."
It's actually pretty great. I have some pretty strong opinions about the importance of Grandparents. Mostly, I just try to stay out of the way and let them play together.


That, all day long folks.

Darth Son-day

An interesting thing happened Saturday. Dr. Sweet-Darter got back from a trip. She got me a gift. It's a Lego Darth Vader alarm clock.

baby pictured for scale.
It's pretty cool. If you tap his head, the clock part lights up red. I was, of course, ecstatic.

Then, later that day, Jack and Shonda brought their exhibitionist potty-training son over to the apartment. Miles took off his pants about 5 times. Most fun I've had in weeks. But, that's not the interesting part...well, not the relevantly interesting part anyway. They got me Josiah some shoes.

when they move the eyes light up red
They are, of course, huge on Jojo, but when he grows into them it's going to awesome.

But, yes, that is 2 Darth Vader gifts in one day.

People get me.

I also found the iPhone cover I just must have. I've seen this thing before...
It's...uncanny
But then, someone did this...
