Today
marks four weeks of Desmond, and I must say, he's been a real angel thus
far. Yes, he's been known to squawk, but he's easily consolable; and yes,
he's full of poo, but I understand there's a whole lot more than four weeks
worth of that so I won't complain.
A lot of people ask where Desmond's name comes from. Well, it's a long story but it starts with soccer (Des Walker) and ends with The Beatles...
Interestingly enough, Desmond would have been called Molly had he been a girl and had Beth gotten her way. My first choice girl name was Chelsea, again looking for that soccer connection. Anyway, I've been having a lot of fun on my paternity leave. The weather's been mostly great so Beth, Desmond, Ellie and I go on a lot of nice, long walks. Since I don't have to go to work, I don't have to be up too early, so I'm reasonably well rested, although there's been plenty to do during the daytime. Next week we'll start a little remodel job on our basement, so we've been well-occupied with the pre-work getting ready for that endeavor. Lot's of visitors too (and if you were one of 'em, thanks for stopping by). I think I've finally convinced Beth that the house doesn't have be constantly tidy... That's probably not something I should be proud of. Hope you like the new photos. As always, click snaps to enlarge...
