Weeeee!

Don’t you love it when your 6 month old son pees all over your $250 universal remote?

Having experienced several other tragic diaper changings, I guess it could have been much worse!

Nunu the Goldfish

Yesterday, we bought a goldfish.

Lily had shown extreme interest in an aquarium earlier in the day, so I felt it was my fatherly duty to make the thrill of fish-watching an everyday thing.

It’s a nice little fish — a fan-tailed goldfish, or something like that.. The guy at PetCo said it was the healthiest one he’d ever seen. (Seriously, he did).

We named it Nunu.

It only flopped around on the kitchen counter for a second or two during my ridiculous attempt at transferring it to the fishbowl. Hey, it was only $1.99.

Man, I got water everywhere.

Baby #2

Today marks the official halfway point of my wife’s current pregnancy.

20 weeks down. 20 to go.

With the first baby, I didn’t really grasp what was going on until quite a while after she was born. That sounds pathetic, I guess, but having a kid is such a huge life change — I guess my mind wasn’t capable of processing it all.

This time around I’m a lot more tuned in. I’m a lot more nervous, scared, excited and happy.
