In honor of Father’s Day we thought it only appropriate that Cindy and I write a little something about our own husbands, the fathers to our wonderful children. Instead of doing a simple blog post we wanted to do something a little different.

I have a 6 month old son named Dax, my first child, and in this short time I have come to appreciate the efforts of Sir Ernest Shackleton and Sir Edmund Hillary. Their courage gives me inspiration to endure my own ‘adventure’.

“Are you happy?” my friend’s two year old little boy was currently climbing all over me while I read Dr. Seuss' The Lorax to him at six o’clock in the morning. “Are you happy?” was a simple question to him, but one that my mind was currently unable to process with a million other questions flying through my head at the time.

When did you know you were ready or that it was time for a second child? And for all my family and friends reading this, NO, I am not pregnant, but my husband and I are certainly starting to think about when we might want to start trying for a second child.

The first time D went pee pee on the potty was almost five months ago right around Hanukkah and Christmas. It had been a long day for the both of us – keep in mind, earlier that day I had fallen in our driveway with D in my arms, landed on my 4 year old nephew and hit my son’s head...]]> Wed, 11 May 2011 17:01:46 GMT 231b5dca-6de5-4613-b872-8cc51c2a5a31

I say give. After all, moms certainly deserve a special gift after everything they go through during and after pregnancy. It doesn’t have to be anything too extravagant but...]]> Wed, 19 Jan 2011 05:31:37 GMT f0307df1-2d7c-4212-b686-6df2e83ab963
If you are pregnant or thinking about getting pregnant I would highly recommend starting a blog, or some type of journal to capture the wonderful and not so wonderful things that will happen during your pregnancy.
