One Jay At A Time: Confessions of a new dad, vol. 6: Hearing things
http://onejayatatime.blogspot.com/2010/08/confessions-of-new-dad-vol-6-hearing.html
One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 6: Hearing things. Sometimes it's her, but often times it's not her, but a noise from outside or the like. Now none of that is outside the range of normalcy for parents of a young baby. But we hear other things too, which may or may not make us a little crazy. We recently added a swing to the mix, which as luck has it, plays the same. Right now as I write this I am hearin...

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Tuesday, September 14, 2010. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 8: Tardiness is next to. My wife and I have always been a punctual couple. You tell us what time to show up, and we're there at the appointed time. Well, this all came to a crashing halt as soon as our little wonder showed up. It's almost comical. So next time- we make a list! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Who am I anyway?

One Jay At A Time: Confessions of a new dad, vol. 18: Weak-ends
http://onejayatatime.blogspot.com/2010/01/confessions-of-new-dad-vol-17-weak-ends.html
One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 18: Weak-ends. Like so many working people in this world, I'd had Friday circled in red in perpetuity on my mental calendar. The weekend was time for rest and rejuvenation- maybe catch up on a few household chores that fell by the wayside over the course of the week. Ahhh, the weekend. Just saying it made it feel all was going to be okay. And then along came parenthood.

One Jay At A Time: Confessions of a new dad, vol. 14: Feeding the baby... and the soul

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Tuesday, October 26, 2010. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 14: Feeding the baby. and the soul. I remember the weeks leading up to the delivery of our child. I was pretty sure I was going to be bawling my eyes out when she came out, the emotional climax of quite a journey. As it turns out, there was a lot going on. Lots of amazing-ness going on - cool that even though this is familiar, youre not taking it for granted!

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 31: That old feeling. I've seen, many times, when mothers (maybe some dads too, but mostly I notice this in moms) are around another new baby, it's always, "Oh I remember this! Or "I miss this." I just didn't think something similar would happen to me. Do I want another little baby already? To relive the innocence? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Who am I anyway?

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Monday, April 18, 2011. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 33: Teething (a pair of companion haiku.). Crying, screaming babe. Writhing and sleepless at night-. Cheerful though, come morn'. My pillow asked me-. Where had you gone, overnight? My crossword just laughs. Your pillow must be so confused!

One Jay At A Time: Confessions of a new dad, vol. 26: Must NOT-See TV
http://onejayatatime.blogspot.com/2011/02/confessions-of-new-dad-vol-26-must-not.html
One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Friday, February 4, 2011. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 26: Must NOT-See TV. Out of mind- but maybe it gives me a fighting chance to keep it in the way back of my mind. This is so interesting, Jay! I totally wonder how parents deal with stories like the girl was just walking down the street . and then! Dun-dun-dun. As a nervous person, I often wonder if ill just be more nervous with children and the answer is: YES, DOH.

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Sunday, July 11, 2010. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 4: The hospital. It is a hospital after all, not the mall. When I'm trying to keep my daughter calm after being poked and prodded- I don't need to hear somebody talking about their leaky kitchen sink. Emoting over the state of your infirmed child is understood, discoursing at volume about your plumbing is not.(End of rant). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Yes, Ill hold.

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Tuesday, October 5, 2010. Confessions of new dad, vol. 10: First born. There always seems to be a bottle or two to wash. All the time we're washing bottles. Gotta keep it interesting, right? Then as soon as the hand goes down, it's fire away! In any case, my little girl's still too young for me to worrying about setting any sort of example- so my inner-child is living it up! Sat Jan 22, 06:14:00 PM 2011. Subscribe to: Post Com...

One Jay At A Time: Confessions of a new dad, vol. 22: In it to win it?

One Jay At A Time. What I'm doing, what I'm thinking. and why you should care. Sunday, January 16, 2011. Confessions of a new dad, vol. 22: In it to win it? To borrow from a sports analogy- raising a child is not a sprint, it's a marathon. But it's not a race. And it is not a competition. Right? Well then why do we feel we need to win so badly? Why do we internalize her unique path to her milestones as some sort of failure as parents on our part? I think whats scary/exciting about kid raising is that lif...
