November 24, 2016: Thankful for Closure

I’m writing a couple of other posts about thankfulness and whatnot that I’ll be posting later over on my blog and my editorial site, but for today’s Thing-a-Day I thought I’d share this wonderful picture that I took this evening of the twins sleeping peacefully together – at home – and elaborate just a bit on what a tremendous relief it’s been…

September 24, 2016: The Milk (Wo)Man

Women kind of got the short end of the stick when it comes to making babies. They’ve got to carry the little suckers around in their bellies for the better part of nine months. Whether it’s the usual way or by slicing a hole in said belly, I’ve heard that either delivery method is pretty painful. And then when…

September 15, 2016: My Two More Sons

So today our family grew, and then grew again some more! I haven’t really written much about it since Sara went into the hospital blorgteen weeks ago – life has been a little, *ahem*, hectic since I’ve been juggling work and kid duty and nightly commutes to visit the wife in her temporary home at the hospital.

June 28, 2016: Oh Boy, Oh Boy!!!

So this just in … it seems that Sevener House is going to be a kingdom of men because we finally found out at our latest ultrasound today that the twins are definitely boys! I expect to find Sara and Cleo holed up in the bathroom with a tub full of bubbles alongside corresponding glasses of wine and…

June 14, 2016: Registration for Two

I told my wife at one point that doing the whole baby gift registry thing seemed a lot more fun the first time. I figure that could’ve been for a couple of different reasons… I was mostly on Christopher duty, so pushing him around in the cart and keeping him occupied held a higher priority in my…
