Happy Birthday James!

Wishing you a wonderfully happy birthday.

In the waiting room awaiting Christina's turn. It feels like a long morning so far. I am unsure what to think about being here. I park, load my pockets with keys camera batteries snack, grab badge holder, and of course my coffee cup. My cup still has the hospital tape that read "Daddy" from Christina's take down surgery. The writing wore off long ago, but I still see it.

I walk in, stop at the info desk, get my badge, head to the restroom, walk to the OR waiting area and sit. I see the parents still green watch me with a puzzled look. I smile at them and think to myself how that used to be me.

To all the parents at the hospital: hi.

Happy Birthday Sheri!

Wishing you a wonderfully happy birthday.

I finished my backups for 2012. Woo Hoo.

This is your reminder to do the same.

Pictures, videos, etc are way too important to lose.

Remember the 3, 2, 1 rule. Three copies, two types of media, and one off-site location.

It is that time again, another round of Phenol blocks and Botox for Christina.

Christina has been a little sick for quite some time and her teeth have been giving her discomfort. We are hopeful she will be well for surgery. Pre-op appointment is today.

Christina has enjoyed lots of cuddle time and a lot of reading. Also enjoys short bouts outside for a walk and her wagon ride.

Ah the backup of pictures and videos. Staying current is a chore, but well worth it.

Happy New Year!!!
Wishing all a wonderful new year.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Christina and I had a great Christmas. Christina was pleased with her gifts from Santa. We had lots of fun over the weekend. I found a sled that would work for Christina and pulled her around the yard and up and down the block. She did a great job holding her head up.

Christina's two front teeth also came out. At bedtime we put them under her pillow for the tooth fairy. It was very cute when she reached under her pillow to grab the bag they were in and pulled it close to her.

All Christina lost for Christmas are her two front teeth.


Christina lost both her front teeth Sunday. It was very cute when she went to bed I put the teeth in a bag under her pillow. We spoke about the tooth fairy and Christina reached under her pillow and grabbed the bag to pull it close. The tooth fairy may have had trouble getting the bag of teeth that night.

Christina also did a wonderful job holding her head up while I pulled her in a sled.



Christina was on the nice list so Santa was pleased. Christmas was fun.
