king of the jungle

‘owen, what does the lion say?’ ‘raaaaaawwwwwwr!’

closer, ever closer

so… my time off is almost up.  i start my new job on monday. the kitchen is almost done.  the counter guy shows up today to install the counters.  the hardwood flooring starts on friday and should be done next week.  after that the plumber shows up and we’re basically done (except for the backsplash [...]

rough morning, my beautiful wife.

30 minutes solid crying is difficult.  he’s done it twice today — i think somewhere, he’s getting even for something.  owen has not been a happy camper today… at all. i have no energy.  back to the kitchen.  crying kid = exhaustion.  and, from what i understand, we have it pretty good with the little [...]
