    Disgruntled AT&T customer

    Over the past several months, Olivia and Miles have watched me develop a tumultuous relationship with my IPhone.  Due to corrupt software and horrible service, my IPhone often craps out leading me to make various facial expressions in an attempt to keep certain words and phrases under my breath.  You could imagine my excitement when […]

    Dear Olivia, I had one of those moments last month when I realized you’re growing up way too fast.  We took a tour of a preschool.  STOP THE PRESSES!  You are in fact almost ready for preschool.  I’m not talking about daycare that is discuised as preschool but real preschool.  We had the opportunity to […]

    Dear Miles, Listen, we need to have a little heart-to-heart.  Your crying is becoming a little bit of an issue over here.  I myself am quite used to it and have no problem tuning it out.  Your Father on the other hand is ready to leave you on the street corner.  You really need to […]

    Month 26 & 27

    Dear Olivia, You’re so special, you get two posts in one!  I’m sorry, I hope this doesn’t translate in to how I’ve been treating you since Miles arrived.  Truth of the matter is, you’re much more independent lately and I’m taking advantage of that.  It’s not like I’m letting you play in traffic or anything […]

    Dear Miles, Man oh man, I forget how needy newborns are.  Geesh, always crying and wanting something.  Who do you think you are – a Kardashian?  You don’t know who that is and you’re a smarter person for not knowing.  I give you some credit because you are sleeping at night – it’s just the […]

    Month 1, Version 2.0

    Dear Miles, Let me first start off by welcoming you to the family.  We’re a little nuts, a little intoxicated, and a little loud.  I hope the experience thus far has been positive.  I often see the same disinterested glazed look in your eyes which makes me second guess whether you’re digging this whole deal.  […]

    Dear Olivia, NO NO NO This appears to be the only word you are capable of speaking lately.  Anything we ask of you, you respond with a firm NO!  Somtimes you just blurt it out and I second guess myself thinking, did I just daze off and ask you something?  I have resorted to parent […]

    Dear Olivia, We have slightly less than 2 weeks before the imminent arrival of your new sibling.  I’m trying to take in every moment that is left of just you and me before things get awfully nutty around here.  I’m doing my best despite being the most exhausted I have ever felt in my life.  […]

    Month 23

    Dear Olivia, Well we have definitely had our fill of each other this past month.  We started the month by going up to a cabin in Arnold, CA with Erma, Merrik, her sister and a few other mom’s and their kids.  It was the first time we had been away, just you and me, without […]
