Love that boy

It's been a while since I've written. Fatherhood makes you a busy man. But it's totally worth it. I know I will change my tune when he's a pissed-off pain-in-the-ass rebellious teenager but right now he's the best son a guy could have. He's pretty easy to figure out most of the time but Laura is much better at it than me. She knows everything going on in that boy's face while I only have a modest knowledge. He looks like Laura's side of the family for sure. He has long fingers and toes which is a little weird. (I call them his monkey toes.) He has Laura's brow and chin. He has black hair and a much darker complexion so that's all me. Man, I wish I didn't get the urge to write this when I am dead tired and can't think straight. Hopefully I will write more later.

Computer Time

Hey all. Man, it's hard to get to a computer to write things down for those of you who care to read my thoughts. Type things I mean. Having a child makes other things hard to do. I am not complaining at all because I love the time I spend with my son. Even when he's crying. I am not feeling well right now. I am sick and I have to pick up my mother from the airport tomorrow so she can take care of me, um, I mean my son. She's gonna be here for 10 days with my sister who's 9. It'll be the 1st time she sees her grandson even though he's not her 1st. He's her 3rd. My wife thinks it'll be stressful to deal with my mom because they're so different but she's gonna be here to help us when we need sleep or want time to ourselves. I just hope I get well enough to enjoy that time even though I have to work 50 hours. It's hard finding time to do a alot when you have a child. That was evidenced when my friend Neil visited us and we couldn't really do too much since we have him now. I don't mind this at all. A part of me will miss hanging out with friends like before but then again most of them are in Florida. I don't really hang with too many people around here even though I wish I could. But I look at my son with wonder. He stares back at me like he's trying to figure me out. He's already 4 weeks old, man. How time flies. Anyway, I am too tired to type more. Adios.
