What can we possibly say to wrap up 2011. ‘Unforgettable’ is too casual of a word. It was a year that provided us the experience of a lifetime, and the joy of bringing two beautiful little boys into our lives. We thought we’d put together this little summary of the past year. Just one word of [...] . . . → Read More: 2011 Year in Review It was three months ago today that we were starting our new life together in our home. When you think of it time-wise, that’s not so long ago. But when we step back and see how well the boys are doing, we’re simply amazed! Evan speaks mostly in English now (but does enjoy hearing some [...] . . . → Read More: Home Three Months 
This was a day Lara and I have been imagining for a long time – our first Christmas as a family. And what a day it was. We’re pretty much making up our family traditions on the fly. We’ll probably tweak some things for next year, but all in all this went quite well. I [...] . . . → Read More: Our First Christmas OK, so maybe this isn’t the kind of title you were expecting here, but this is one of those stories we just have to tell. After dinner tonight, we were playing in the family room. All of the sudden, Alex decides he wants to play a game called “bye-bye”. In this game, he walks into [...] . . . → Read More: The Jerk 
Where has the time gone? Today marks exactly one month that we’ve been home with the boys. You may have noticed that our posting rate has slowed dramatically. Much of that is because we’re starting to get back to real-life, which means Lara and I are starting to work again. There just isn’t much time [...] . . . → Read More: One Month In 
Although our postings are slowing down, the list of “firsts” continues to grow. I started back to work part time this week. Separation on the first day was pretty rough. Evan kept shouting “papa, papa!” as far as I could hear, but by the second day, he seemed to accept it as part of the [...] . . . → Read More: Work and Play 
There hasn’t been much of note over the last few days. We’re doing our best to keep the boys entertained, and we’re still fighting the battle of “house rules”. Alex seems to be picking up more bad habits from Evan, so he’s starting to get his fair share of timeouts too. Things are settling in [...] . . . → Read More: What’s This Between My Toes? 
The big news today is that we went to the zoo. The people I work with gave us a year-long family pass to the Denver zoo. The weather is still nice for the next couple of days, so we thought we’d try it out. The boys weren’t quite as animated as we’d hoped (nothing worth [...] . . . → Read More: What a Zoo 
Today was yet another big day, with our first visit to the pediatrician. I don’t think the boys are ever going to want to go back. Alex got 4 vacinations, Evan got 5, and both of them also had a good deal of blood drawn for some lab work. You can imagine how they reacted. [...] . . . → Read More: The Doctor Today was the big day, where we finally brought Bacchus home from puppy camp to meet the boys. We all drove up to camp, which is about an hour each way. The boys are still going through some separation anxiety issues, and we thought 2.5 hours would be pushing it for either of us to [...] . . . → Read More: Bacchus! |
