Yee-haw.

Time is going by WAY too fast. Today is November 14th, which means my daughter is 3 months old today! Life is so great BUT I feel like I can't or I'm not taking it all in. I feel like I am just barely hanging on for the ride.

I joke with most of my friends (who've yet to have kids) about having kids. I usually say something like, "Come on, everyone is doing it!". The usual response is, "I can't take care of myself, let alone another person!". That comment got me thinking...maybe a little too much. Am I taking care of myself?

I basically just exist day in and day out. I go through the same motions, and do just what I have to do to get by.

I can imagine how you and Summer must feel. Matt and I have been talking about this and if you guys need a "date night" or anything, let us know! We're trying to save some money and not go out so much so we'll be home a lot more and can watch the kids for you if you need it.

The ever changing, never ending list.

I hear a lot about bucket lists. I dunno, maybe I have one. More of my 'lists' are current lists, 5 year lists, 25 year lists...but I guess they all could be bucket lists because we don't know how much time we've got at the dance. Over the past 2 years my wants have drastically changed. I've been focusing on simpler things, true things. Not reaching so much for more, just trying to enjoy what is here more. That goes for family, friends, opportunity, relationships...not material things. (Except I really really want a canoe or kayak so I can get out on the water soon) Is it possible to make a list that won't change?  Is it possible to remain true to the values of a 34 year old father, when those very values seem to have shifted based on life experiences? Are the items on my list too specific? Maybe... Love Honesty Compassion Health Fun More to come on this one I'm pretty sure.

Take us out to the ball game.

Last night we ventured over to the Explorers baseball game after dinner, it was great. Jordan talked to the X's pitching crew out in the bull-pin for a while, and they ended up giving him a ball. He's such a sports guy! The pitcher that gave him the ball said, "Can you give it a throw?" and so he did...over his head out into left field! Of course my diva Bell had more fun doing spins and drinking a slush, but that's all good. I love my family.
