Taking care of a newborn is rough.

Ha! Wait 'till you have two. You'll realize one was a piece of cake!

Congrats

I find having two gets easier though.  My daughter just turned 8 on Friday and my son will be 4 next month and I have found having two gets much easier.  They play with each other, keep each other amused, my daughter does things for my son, etc.  Two infants is definitely a different story though.

It was a really up and down weekend for me.  Friday was my daughter's birthday and I took her out for lunch just the two of us and then got her Lobster for supper, which is her favourite.  Yesterday I participated in the Fredericton Craft Beer Festival, had a fantastic time, and received a ton of amazing compliments on my beers.  Today, my Dad would of turned 70 so I'm quite down and missing him a lot.   We always had a joint b-day party for my Dad and Daughter, so it just wasn't the same this year.    :-\

Made it to Reading. Very neat little pub next to the hotel. Made friends with some Germans also here on a project. Drank far too much Black Rye porter.

Today has been a good day. :-)

Oh, the Philadelphia airport would make an adequate bus station.

My rental was supposed to be a Jetta, but it was "broken".
I have a Chrysler 200, which was better than expected frankly.

Wow your kids had them quite early.  My brother was born in 76, has an 8 year old, and a 1 year old.  I was born in 80, and havea 3 year old daugher, and a 11 month old song!  Nothing from my younger brother born in 83, and I doubt it...

Thanks all. Last night was kind of rough but I think we are getting the hang of burping the baby.

Its a good thing we're preprogrammed to think babies are cute (plus they tend to look like us) otherwise I'm not sure the human race would have ever perpetuated.

Yeah I hope not. She's usually good as soon as we figure out whats wrong though. ie: last night finally managed to burp her...instant silence. But its possible that she is.
