Well, it's been two months being a dad and it has seemed like forever! I can barely remember the pregnancy days and time before that. Anyway, it's been great. With the baby came a new job. So now I rush towards finishing up graduate work by year's end. I've gone back to school full time (Monday thru Friday) but at slightly reduced hours. Each morning I have the pleasure of being awaken by my son and feeding his day break bottle. Seeing the sun come up everyday with my baby is great, especially if he (and thus his parents) slept well during the night. I usually get a good 2 hours with him like this. After I come back from school, he is immediately handed over to my care. Sometimes I get to bottle-feed Terran again. Most nights, I get to give Terran his bath. It's usually a lot of fun. Sometimes I read to him and he seems to like that. ^o^ Other times, I play some jazz on the radio because he definitely likes that! He smiles when he poops... What more can you ask? This is the ultimate reality show. This is a dad's life!
