The excitement was electric, Watching Paul George answer The Heat’s big shots with dagger after dagger like buckets of his own almost resulted in one of us puking! (I won’t say who almost puked, but it wasn’t you, don’t worry.)

Yet you slept through most of it…which for now is fine, but I looking forward to being able to share these types of sports experiences with you!

For what it’s worth, I had to take to Twitter to share my silent celebrations that were taking place in the family room while you snoozed peacefully in anticipation of waking me up as soon as I lay down after the game! Regardless, great game tonight son! I’m glad I got to share it with you! GO PACERS!

5.28.14. – I’m Slowly Becoming My Dad

One day you’re walking around in a nice pair of Express jeans, a button down and some Jordan’s and the next your outside doing yard work in dress pants, a white V-neck T-shirt and a pair of sandals.

I guess I’m becoming a good italian dad. That’s just what we do. It’s in our DNA. Big Pete (Grandpa Soprano) would be so proud. Only difference is he’d be wearing penny loafers instead of sandals.

5.27.14. – 1 Month

1 month already. It’s so funny how the old adage, “Time flies when your having fun,” really does apply. To think I had anything to do with making this little person is still unbelievable to me. All joking aside I hope I’ve been a good dad so far Jackson. Mommy and daddy love you so much.

PS: “Time flies when you’re having fun” can be substituted above by “Time flies when you don’t ever sleep,” “Time flies when you’re changing diapers every 14 seconds,” and/or “Time flies when you realize you’re always the second coolest guy in the room now.”

5.26.14 – Guard Dog

Tonight we learned just how deep Buster’s loyalty lies. Ohh you know it’s just Auntie Tricia holding Baby Jax. “Ohh hell no, not in my house she ain’t.”

Whether it’s simply a protective instinct he feels for his little brother, or just a hope he might snag a little scrap of dirty diaper… It’s still cute as hell.

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).
