Here it is a little over a month after the birth of Sydnie and well… it’s been filled with a lot of blood, sweat and tears.

Most of the time we don’t really get enough sleep but we’re trying to get the little barracuda into a good sleep cycle. For now 4am seems to be her bedtime. I give the wife a night off here and there but with work and freelancing it’s difficult to do that on a regular basis. It’s really rewarding to see your wife after she’s had a proper sleep cycle. Happy wife. Happy life.

Sienna was apprehensive at first. Not knowing what to think. We would talk about Sydnie during the pregnancy to try and ease the shock a little but I’m not sure it helped. She was very attention starved turning up the annoying about two fold. In a humorous moment she mentioned that she would like Grandma to take Sydnie home when she leaves. I guess she was feeling a little left out.

All and all it’s been a lot of fun having the wife home on leave. She has a few more weeks left and then it’s Daddy day care all over again.
