HAPPY AND THOUGHFUL MEMORIAL DAY
29/05/12 08:55
It’s a bittersweet day. Great to have a day off and connect with the family over a long weekend. And sad to think of the men and women who have given their lives so that we can enjoy days like this. My Grandfather, great uncle, uncle, dad and brother all served in the military. Most served in the Navy except my brother, who joined the USMC. I’m lucky enough that they all survived the many wars through the years, but it’s still a tragic day for so many.

WE'RE GOING TO NEED A BIGGER NIPPLE
06/03/12 22:35
We arrived home this evening to our seasoned babysitter feeding our little boy on the sofa. They both looked very much at home and comfortable. It only took a couple of minutes for the babysitter to let us know we were going to need a bigger nipple for our baby bottles. She announced that at almost 5 months old, Conor is sucking so hard to get the milk out of the bottle that he's wearing himself out and falling asleep before he gets the proper amount of milk. She then looked into her crystal ball and told us if he was getting the proper amount of milk that he probably wouldn't wake up in the middle of the night but instead could well sleep a full 10 hours without waking up. Valerie and I looked at each other and knew as soon as we got the babysitter out of the house that we were headed to Babies R' Us to get some bigger nipples. We'll soon find out if we get to sleep through the night. I'm starting to count sheep as I write this.
