Adjusting to the New Life

First off, it's been too long, and I know I need to write something because I have this nagging feeling in the back of my head that I need to write something.  Also, I can keep checking my Google Adsense account all I want, It's not going to go up, money-wise, if I don't produce any content!  Duh!

What can I say?  2013 is turning out to be on hell of a year.  Good and bad.  Of course, if you read my post last month about my dad, that happened.  Then on the 13th of this month (March) my second child was born, a boy, named Miles.  He's wonderful and healthy and hungry and cute and he has all kids of hair on his head and he likes to sleep a lot.  He's a newborn, what can I say?  So of course my life gets a bit flipped upside down, with new routines and keeping the daughter happy and keeping the wife who's home on maternity leave happy, and keeping myself happy, as well.  I hate to be selfish in this time because it really isn't about me right now.  But there certainly is a part of me that knows I must keep myself in a good place in order to keep everyone else in a good place.  Evie has been a bit whinier lately, and I know it's because of Miles, so I'm trying to show here that daddy still loves her so, so much and give her special time with me.  I can't do a whole hell of a lot for Miles at this point, except hold him and tell him I love him and that I'm his daddy.  He's 11 days old now, it's not like he can really respond to anything I tell him anyway.

I can tell it's been a while since I've blogged because I can't type worth a shit.

So we do cleaning and sleeping and showering and sleeping some more.  It's not that exciting, really.  It's exciting in the fact that I have a baby boy at the house, but it's really just a lot of adjusting at this point.  I'm sure soon enough we'll fall into what will be the new normal and I'll forget what life was like before Miles was ever born, just like now I can't remember what life was like before Evie was here.  What the hell was the point to living before the kids?

Life is good right now, and I need to tell myself that more often.  I also should tell all of you millions of readers that more often as well.  It's not that hard to open the laptop and say hey.  As we go through not only adjusting my own new life, also adjusting to Miles' new life as well.  and Evie's new life and Bethany's new life and everything that comes along with it.  Exciting times.  2013, man.  What else you got for me?
