God Bless The Baby, God Bless The Nap!

Okay, so it's been a while since I posted to this blog, but I swear I'm finding a purpose to this. Mainly, to not be playing Scrabble or endlessly perusing Facebook in the hours that my dear little boy is asleep. I have been living in Ithaca, NY for the last 5 months, and my main job has been to take care of this beautiful boy of mine:
While there are moments in every day where I feel frustrated, tired and confused, I have to admit, I'm getting pretty frickin' good at this dad thing! In fact, I should write a book! Or a blog. Let's just stick to a blog for a little while.

Probably, the only thing I don't really feel I've improved at is constructive use of nap times. I know that some parents aren't as lucky as I am (my little man takes two long naps a day) but still, I find myself sitting at the computer, googling people I haven't spoken to in over a decade rather than do something constructive with my time. Well, I declare today that nap times will no longer serve the purpose of google time. Instead, I will devote nap times to cooking, cleaning, music, blogging, bill paying, exercise. Crap! I have a lot to get done! God bless my son for sleeping so soundly!
