Thoughts of the future father....

I decided I would add a randomly recurring post to our blog that will give some insight as to what is going through my head during all of the goings on.



Come and knock on our door...First things first, my poor wife.

I am lucky enough to have a job that I don't go to every other Friday. I know, it's sweet, but in reality, usually I just end up doing chores which makes the Friday moderately lame, but the weekends really nice. Pity party aside, this Friday I was off from work and I was laying in bed trying not to let the dog see that my eyes were open while I listened to my wife get ready to go to work. She has been doing pretty well with the pregnancy thing, and I'm not just saying that because she'll read this. It seriously hasn't been as bad as I prepared myself for. However, she has had one issue that has been ongoing and I feel bad for her, but what's worse is every time it happens I laugh a little inside. Brushing teeth. She gets sick when she brushes her teeth. We've tried different toothpaste and she says it helped some. For those of you that watch Family Guy, you'll understand why I laugh. There is a scene where Lois is talking about how bad she had it when she was pregnant. Then Peter chimes in about how he had it even worse. Flashback:He's watching "Three's Company" and then Lois starts getting sick off screen, and he has to turn up the volume to drown out her yaking. I always think of this clip when Natalie is getting sick and I laugh a little in my head. I know its mean, but it isn't intended to be, it is just funny.


Sometimes with everything that's going on, you have to be able to laugh, otherwise you'll feel so sorry for your wife that you'll be depressed all the time. And that will just make her depressed too.

There is a distinct difference between Spiderman Kraft mac'n'cheese and Scooby Doo Kraft mac'n'cheese.

Homemade Taco salad is delicious, and it seems nutritious.

I finally finished the Galaxie trunk this weekend. It was a three step process to finish it and I stretched it into 3 months. Here are some pictures, i know they're not great, I used my phone. I realize that the amount of time I spend on the car will only reduce once Sudsie comes along, so I guess I have been practicing working on it at a very slow pace.


All fancy and shiny! This is the side view.

For those of you wondering, he doesn't "check on me" because he's not allowed in the bathroom while I'm getting sick. He does usually ask "are you okay? can I get you anything" Although I'm too busy to answer. He also makes dinner almost every night...so he can laugh in his head all he wants.

Nat,
I was the same way, brushing my teeth stunk, unfortunately I think it becomes a habit to get sick brushing your teeth because sometimes I still do! It is totally weird.
