Monthly Toys Before He’s Even Here!

I’m like a college freshman signing up for credit cards just to get a t-shirt when it comes to the monthly box subscriptions.  I’m willing to try just about any subscription, to at least see if it’s worth it for a month or two, so when Citrus Lane was brought to my attention, I gave it […]

Tick Tock, Carlos…

Well, if you read nothing else in the rest of this post, read this: 37 Weeks and, no, the baby isn’t here yet.  Thankfully, the one big risk (at least from my end) was averted as I finished up shooting my second to last wedding on Sunday, one which I had no coverage for up until […]

So…about that last post…

Wednesday’s are one of my favorite days in the Fall for one reason, and one reason only. CBS’s Survivor. So it only seems appropriate, then, that shortly after last night’s post, MOMFC and I settled down to the second episode of the latest season.  Except last night wasn’t like any normal Wednesday night watching Survivor. […]

Rockabye….Baby!

Home Stretch. Finale. Conclusion. 30 Days. 30 Days are all we have left, and to be 100% honest, even that’s just an estimate.  MOMFC’s doctor has our little bundle of joy arriving on October 31st, but if I were a betting man, I’d put good money on him arriving a bit earlier.  That being said, […]

A Truly Remarkable Time To Raise a Child

The image for this post doesn’t really have a lot to do with the post, but I guess I can stretch it.  Last night, MOMFC went through a momentary relapse into nesting and allowed me to put together nearly anything that arrived at our house in a box big enough for our dog to use as […]

It’s All Coming Together

Roughly four months ago, I did much of my photography work, much of my stay-at-home work, and much of my “junk hoarding” in our third bedroom upstairs.  I knew that wasn’t going to last forever, but it became a lot more real when MOMFC decided to drop the news on me that it was time to […]

Cheap, or Efficient? You be the Judge!

Look. I hate grocery shopping.  Hate it.  It’s boring, I always have to push the cart (something about a pregnant belly getting in the way and blah, blah, blah), I always get yelled at for sneaking oreos into the cart, and I can’t stand the people that are in there with me. Recently, my Father-in-law […]

Sunset to Sunrise

I guess the title of this post is a metaphor, or something like that.  I really just liked the photo that I took this past weekend in Naples.  But, I guess in a way, it is a metaphor for the MOMFC’s pregnancy.  Tomorrow, Friday September 5th, Elise will be 32 weeks pregnant.  That means that, if […]

Where Are We Going To Put All of This….Stuff?!?

Mere hours ago, that scene up top was my our living room.  Boxes and bags filled with God knows what were strewn across our floor, blocking both ingress and egress to any other location in our house. That mess?  That mess was the result of our incredibly generous family and friends coming together and helping […]

DCDT Book Review: Dude, You’re Gonna Be a Dad

Another Week brings another DCDT Book Review because, in all honesty, reading books is about all that is left to do right now.  The MoMFC is only 12 weeks away from D-Day, and we’re pretty much in cruise control at this point in time.  So without further ado… The latest read through was the book […]
