5.25.14 – Night Out

Capture

Got a nice little Friday night planned. How things have changed in a month. Not gonna lie though… I’m an old soul. I’ve always loathed the bar scene, I mean, I do enjoy being the overdressed guy in a bar full of idiots wearing football jerseys. But… In all reality, I couldn’t be happier. Love spending time with this little dude.

As an aside let me be the fist to point out there is an ongoing issue that is taking place in our society, and it needs to be stopped immediately. Stop wearing jerseys out as like an actual article of clothing. It should not be part of anyone’s regular daily wardrobe. It’s pathetic. There are only 3 acceptable reasons to wear a jersey.
1) it’s your jersey and you’re getting paid to wear it.
2) you’re a fan watching the game live at the stadium, or in the confines of your own domain.
3) you’re a girl. (Not gonna lie, Stef looks pretty cute in her fitted GB Packers jersey).

5.24.14 – Mornings

tumblr_n5zbneSM0F1talaxzo1_500

It’s breakfast time. For once, it’s actually quiet in the house and I’m able to enjoy just sitting and spending quality time with my son.  It’s so much more enjoyable when he is actually eating his food and not redecorating my shirt or the couch with it.  It’s been a pretty good night, but I’m not surprised that the coffee I’m drinking is unable to counteract the events of the week so far.  (Note to self… try making coffee tomorrow morning with REDBULL instead of water).

Out of nowhere a flash of dark fur streaks across the family room… not that out of the ordinary for my Max, who already is just weird to the level of infinity x 3.  But what happens next is what draws my concern.  He begins to squat, but this time, he slowly turns his head and looks right at me… like literally… we lock eyes.  Then it happens. He’s dropping a bomb on the floor and I think to myself, “I mean, he is literally staring at me and pooping on the floor.”  It all happens in slow motion and when he’s finished I swear he smiled at me and laughed when he walked away.

Yet, nothing stops the little guy from enjoying his breakfast of champions.  He ate the whole thing, and it didn’t result in me OR him having to change!

Today is going to be a good day, I can feel it.

Kid was born a champ! The world was blessed with another Yankee fan on 4.27.14. I’m not sure there is a person more excited about passing down the history of the NYY than I am. Also beyond stoked he’ll be able to say he saw Derek Jeter play before he retired.

5.18.14 – Tommy Time

text2

So Grandpa Soprano strikes again… A cute picture text to the family unit turns out to be a question about Tommy Hilfiger.

This was a great way to start the morning. Although I do think this TOMMY TIME thing could catch on… Maybe I’ll start a Blog called FashionBaby … And yes my wife’s contact information in my phone is titled “Love of my Life.” That’s a story for another day.
