one sick bandit

its late and im sick. not sure what it is. started in my throat on wednesday.  more than likely been carrying it for a while, through the birth or got it there and maybe my body being worn down, tired.  bam. probably got me at that damn bethesda hospital when the blood happy nurse

 stressed us all out.  no fever, no aches. just clearness. chesty runny business.

skeeter and tosh are crashed.  they had a big day of feeding and sleeping.  we watched some ball, had some soup. saw the nahbs.  other things.  smiled. laughed.  the usual.  i tried to stay on quarantine. hard to do. remembering to wash those hands and dress like a bandit.  if it gets worse tomorrow, i stay horizontal.  bummer. sorry tosh.  sorry honey. only day together alone and i pull this shit. 

saturday night live is stupid. 

just waiting for my chest to relax a bit.

let the hacking subside.

ok. this dance skit is pretty funny.

peace

a week at home

here we are at the end of a our first week in the house with tosh. tanil's father was down for the entire week, lending many a hand at the sink over dirty dishes and chopping salad mix. so many people have brought us food that our freezer is full, and we are still eating off the goods in the fridge. thank you all so much. we are very thankful for you all.


we all have done very well at adapting to one another and this life we have now. tosh, of course eats, sleeps, lounges, shits, and pees, and just is so damn cute. tanil is an amazing woman, and has taken to breast feeding like the champ she is. i love to watch her looking into tosh's eyes. they look like they are in a trance. total bonding. tosh building his trust in her. amazing to behold. too bad for me, i had to get back into the office on wednesday, as expected. bills must be paid and maybe the mortgage.


skeeter, her dad, and tosh came out to the kickball game last night to watch the state champs lose there first round playoff game 2-1. i dont think tosh saw a peep of his daddy pitching. that's ok, there's time. and then again today, they all came up to my office for lunch. we introduced the little man around and he didnt even blush at all the attention.

higlights of the week:
takin naps with tosh
watching skeeter
mesmerizing over tosh
lookin into his eyes
eating all the yummy food
realxing
sleeping hard

lowlights:
going back to the hospital for a jaundice and high bilirubin scare
having an ER nurse who knew nothing about pediatrics do a blood letting on my son.
having to lay him in a light tray at the house, though that wasnt all that bad, as long as he was soundly sleeping he transitioned well.

i've updated and added some more photos to the album.

First real opportunity to get in the blog world

Tosh joined us live and in person in Wed. 5 Nov 2008 0249am

It was an absolutely amazing birth.

Skeeter was a freakin rock star in there.

He came straight out on into mommas arms

Eyes wide open and has stayed there pretty much ever since.

Welcome to the family and the block young Tosh Hollis.

You are truly amazing.
