There's Sleep....

...and then there's "Buvyer" sleep.

Best Smile....EVER!!!

I can't begin to describe how excited I feel to know that I have the ability to make my son smile! The first five weeks of his life were leaving us with a nervous uncertainty, knowing that he might not be happy. It's amazing how much a simple smile can change all of that. It makes me think about people in general; we seem to gauge a lot by smiles don't we?

Like Father, Like son...

Jaden de Aqua

His first bath without fussing, it was a good day. Plus he's super cute!

Not meaning to brag but...

Look what my baby can do!

He's growing too quickly!

Our little baby isn't so little anymore! We haven't weighed him yet, but he must be over the ten-pound mark now. Fortunately for Mommy and I, he's still cute as a button.


Sorry that we haven't been taking many pics lately; he's had a hard time breathing as a result of his plugged nose and therefore not usually in a "Kodak moment" mood.


It looks like Jaden's starting to smile (barely) but it's hard to tell. I can't wait to hear him giggle when I tickle him, after all, that's a dad's job right?

There's a little redneck in all of us...

Well, Jeff Foxworthy would be proud.

We hit the KFC drive-thru tonight for our "romantic" celebration. Yep, it's our 4th anniversary tonight. We went all out and rented some movies and even thought about buying each other gifts!

Part of me really, really wants to sweep my beautiful wife off her feet and take her somewhere far away and romantic but....

These pictures help convey the reason why we're just fine with settling for deep-fried chicken, at least for a while ;)

The cool "denim" look; it's all the rage right now....

The infamous nose-nibble...

Picture Catch-up

Can you spot the baby?

Shelly Gets her turn.

The "expecting" Sarah starts practicing...

Jaden's "Wind & Tide" baby shower.

Beyond my wildest dreams!

His beauty? His cuteness? Well, yes, these things also have passed the outer-reaches of my imagination. But the title of this blog is owed to a much fouler trait that seems to be intrinsically part of my son:

The ability to crap on things from a distance with stunning trajectory and force.

I thought Jaden's short-term goal of clearing the change table with his fecal matter was quite enough. I get it son, you're a young boy with talent. But now the dishwasher? This is just too much. Granted, a dishwasher is much easier to clean than the nursery walls.

Can I please select "none of the above" for next time?

By the way, our son, who was sporting his "birthday suit" at the time, was about to be bathed in the kitchen. I'm sure you can figure out the rest.

So, aside from a crappy evening (you saw it coming), our son is still cuter than ever. Scratch that, as I typed this sentence, Jaden literally just puked on Mommy.

Ok, so he was cute last night....at Grandma and Grandpa's place. Here's some pictures to prove it!

Good Morning Son!
