So, as per usual around here, it’s been busy. I’ve been trying to get used to my new schedule, which is far easier than I thought. But, I find myself feeling wiped out by mid week… For instance, today is only Tuesday and my juju is definitely on E. ;) The extra time after work is very nice, however, and I’ve almost got a new routine that takes advantage of it.

So what’s news? Let’s see, I finally got my buddy Joel - The Pundit - hooked up on Drupal. I’m thinking of switching to it in order to manage this site, but I don’t like that folks have to sign into the system in order to leave comments with names… I like seeing the names of folks posting comments, and I don’t want you guys to have to “sign” your comments or have to make an account to post a named comment. :) But, we’ll see. Getting back into web work has been nice, tho I have not as much time to devote to it as I’d like… Or perhaps a better description, is I can’t seem to get my priorities straightened out in order to do so. ;)

The Monster weighs 14lbs now! My baby boy is growing up. :( His tummy issues are getting a bit better - thanks to the meds. His therapies are going well. Heidi always tells me about the other kids at these sessions. It really makes you appreciate how lucky our little guy is to have done so well.

This weekend Grandma and Grandpa H came out to visit us! It’s always a treat to see them. Rhys fell asleep in grandpa’s arms! It was so cute! He rarely falls asleep in that position, but he was just so content with grandpa! :) They hadn’t seen him since his first day of life. Must have been such a contrast. I look at the pictures from time to time. Heidi can’t stand to see them just yet. I don’t blame her — they are pretty disturbing to see. But, it helps me with my perspective.

Here’s grandpa w/ Rhys

He also gets to see Lola at least once every week. She spoils him to death, but that’s quite ok. It’s a nice treat for him, for her, and a break for us. :) Win, win, win. :)

Lastly, I thought I’d share a shot of what Heidi and I see every morning. He’s usually stirring before us. He just lays there in his bassinette talking to the air practicing mastering his voice. We usually laugh at his little voice, look over at him and this is our view.

Take care out there!
