One Month in the Books


Yesterday marked the one month milestone in the life of one Addie Jean. Her latest developments include eating more often than a sumo wrestler in training, spitting up with the volume and velocity of a drunk fraternity pledge, burping like she's been entered in a contest and choosing to prevent both Mommy and Daddy from sleeping more than two hours at any one stretch per night.

In other words...she's doing just fine.


In the meantime, Daddy has some thoughts about the current state of things...in honor of Addie's Auntie Joe.


1. Wipeout is the funniest show on TV since Seinfeld. No matter how many times I see the contestants crash into the rubber balls, I still laugh like it was the first time.
2. This week, us parentals are leaving the house for the first time together without the baby girl. What would be so important for this? Only great seats to see both MercyMe and the David Crowder Band, two of Mommy and Daddy's favorites. If you haven't heard them, you're missing out...and they are both awesome live.
3. Despite the lack of sleep, Mommy and Daddy have both quickly adjusted to the constant state of fatigue. I can now see how people get used to sleeping 5 hours or less per night and still function semi-normally. Oh please let her sleep for at least 4 hours sometime soon or Mommy might have to take an extended leave.
4. Bring on football season!! I'm sick and tired of watching the Padres come from ahead to blow leads. I heard today they have given up the most inherited runners since the pathetic Royals of 8 seasons ago. Two words: We Suck. LT, when do you start scoring touchdowns again?

1. Loving the list format.
2. Congrats on getting out of the house...enjoy yourselves! It's a good thing!
3. Addie cannot get any cuter until I am able to see her and hold her and kiss her so just tell her to just knock it off already jeeze gah.
4. Wipeout. Dude. Never gets old. Seeing people get punched in the face by a wall of boxing gloves? PRICELESS.
5. "Good night, and big balls." Funniest. Sign. Off. Ever.
