Haircut @Home

The boy needed a haircut. We’d wake him up from his naps, and even with the air conditioning on, his hair would be matted to his head with sweat.

But his last haircut (which was also his first) cost over $10. That’s a lot of money for a baby’s head — especially when he pretty much [...]

A hurriedly prepared post with some low frame-rate videos in it…

I got home to Canada this weekend, for all of about 36 hours. Got to see my kids, spend some time with my wife, and change a few diapers. While I was there, Benjamin got his first hair cut. He was a very good boy through the whole thing, and of course, he looks adorable [...]

Baby Sign (in which our kids show off their funny faces)

The other day, Benjamin toddled into the living room, tugged on mommy’s pants and demanded a bath. Not only was it the right time of night (we usually give him his bath just before bed) but it was the right night — bath night is every other, and he knows it.
No, he can’t talk yet, [...]

A Job Well Done

So I’m making myself a pot of coffee this morning, and as I pull out the coffee filters, Benjamin runs over with his arm out, demanding one — one of whatever it is I’m having. So I take a paper filter for myself and hand him one to play with.
At first he’s not sure what [...]

Finally… my family is home

We made it. All four of us, back under one roof.
Benjamin was initially pretty interested in Abi. He gave her a hug, and rocked her carseat when she started crying. But when Mommy left to feed her, he got really jealous, really fast.
We’re just going to be strict with our routine, and make sure each [...]

NSFW

Day 2 was a tough one. Nic got very little sleep last night, and while I got plenty, there was not much I could do to help her during the day. When I got to the hospital, I tried taking Abi for a walk so Nic could get a little sleep. I got halfway down [...]

The ladies, they like to keep you waiting…

Here, let us entertain you with pictures of our first born, while #2 continues to hold our lives, and maybe soon our sanity, hostage…

Accessorize your baby

Since there’s no news from Abi, who apparently is being stubborn about her desire to remain in the womb, we decided instead to show off Benjamin, in some of his new accessories. He’s only recently been willing to keep things on his head — and he seems to now realise that its kind of funny [...]

A Series of Tubes

So we all got up at 5:00am this morning, dragged our butts half an hour to the other side of downtown Albany, and checked-in for surgery, right on time, at 6:00am. Thereafter, the only bump was when the receptionist forgot to mark us as being there, and we sat for 45 minutes, watching person after [...]

Baby Update

Someone who randomly pops into our life, says something smart, then disappears for awhile, randomly popped into my life via IM today and asked why we weren’t blogging about the current pregnancy very much. So this one’s for Tara, and anyone else wondering…
It’s not a real big mystery. See we’ve been pregnant for the past [...]
