Post-RE Update & Sick Boy
Noah is sick.
Apparently, there’s something going around his day care classroom, and he was feverish and listless yesterday afternoon. Not that they called us or anything. You know, so we could see a doctor yesterday, or give him some medicine to help him feel better. Or maybe to avoid getting more kids sick.
By 6:30 pm, […]

One of Those Evenings
Monday nights are Jill’s Automotive Fundamentals class nights, giving me and Noah prime one-on-one time together. This is both good and bad.
The early part of the evening went well. Noah had fun with his choo-choos, he didn’t vigorously resist eating dinner, and he actually ate a good amount of the food on his plate. (All […]

Nice Weekend, Big Week
We had a really relaxing weekend, which was sorely needed. Noah slept in until 7:30 am on Saturday! Then we had fun at our Kindermusic class.
The current class is Sign & Sing, which I think would be more valuable for a younger child, but is still fun, and Noah has started signing — beyond just […]

Home Safe
Hi, honey, I’m home!
This has been the second wackiest business trip of my professional career. (None will ever top driving across the United States after September 11. I hope.)

On the Road Again
Tomorrow morning around this time, I’ll be getting on the subway to go to the airport. To go to San Diego, where I will be until Friday morning. Without Jill and Noah.
Denial is probably the reason I haven’t written about this here until now.
I have this work conference, which I’m actually excited about, but I’m […]
