Bring on the Night

C: Awww… look at Mark, he’s snorring… So cute! C, later the same night: *Elbows Peter in the ribs* Shut up, you’re snorring!

Went to the doctor with Mark the other day. He weren’t feeling well and complained about his stomach. When we entered the doctors office, Mark sat down. Looked at me, then the doctor. And without a sound he upped, took my car keys out of my pocket and headed out the door. Theres no fooling […]

A headline that just invites to smartass replies, right? Caught your attention though, didn’t it? We have C’s sister and her 8 year old boy living with us since mid December. They are going home in 14 days or so, and it has been great having them here overall. C’s sister is a great help […]

In attempt to teach our kid some Chinese, C got hold of some VCDs with Chinese children’s songs. Actually calling them ‘Chinese’, may be overdoing it, since many of the melodies are oddly recognizable to me (like Jinglebells for one). Anyway, the lyrics are in Chinese, and that good enough for the purpose. Yesterday, as […]

As promised in an older post, here’s the picture of one of the gifts we got for our boy. It’s a pair of “special” Chinese pants:

I could have sworn I’d be cold as freaking ice, but seems I’ve slowly morphed into your average pathetic parent. Today I watched Mark crawl for the first time and almost got all teary-eyed. Dammit! 1 day before his 7 month birthday the little bugger decided to crawl his first meter. And to reach what? […]

A continued entry following the last post describing my day C’s daily routine after Mark’s birth: 6.00am and sometimes even earlier: Mark wakes up and starts yakking/whimpering because he’s done sleeping. Normally he needs a shot of milk too, which C provides sitting half-asleep on the bed. 6.30am: After 30 minutes of sucky sleep C […]

I wanted to write this for a while, but didn’t prioritize it. The following may explain why. My daily routine after Mark’s birth: 6.00am and sometimes even earlier: Mark wakes up and starts yakking/whimpering because he’s done sleeping. 6.30am: After 30 minutes of torture semi-sleep I give up and crawl out of bed. 7.15am: I […]

As I wrote in the last post, we’ll have our son baptised in church soon. To be honest, it’s not really what I want, being a huge fan of FSM and not so much religion. In a weak moment a few years ago, I told C that she could decide whether or not our first […]

Finally allowed to leave the hospital today. Home at about 2pm. We’re both wasted. C both mentally and physically. I have the benefit of getting more continuous sleep that last 5 days, which gives me an edge. Tbh though, I have slept like shit the last month or so and it shows. After C went […]

As you might have guessed, I’m extremely busy visiting C and our new son at the hospital all day long. C has to stay there with the kid, since he is under observation. Nothing serious, just newborn stuff. If everything works out well, they’ll be home tomorrow, Monday. You never know, since I’ve heard that […]

Chances are now 1 to a handful of billions that I am. Yesterday, Thursday the 11. february 2010 at 18:16, C gave birth to a healthy boy. She went 14 days past expectancy, and thus the kid is nearing a whopper. 4.2kg, which is about 400g over average. Hard toiling for C who was extremely […]
