Isn't it amazing!

Sometimes the days can seem like the movie Groundhog Day.  Everything just repeats itself.  You wake up and feed them.  They get some tummy time.  You change some diapers.  You go for a walk.  It is days like today that make it all worth it.  Your son starts to react.  What a great thing to see and hear him trying to talk.  Here he is talking to mom.    This is what it is all about.  Being a Dad is awesome and I am so lucky to be able to share these moments and be present when they happen.

It started today...

Today is the first day as a full time Dad.  The twins are now 11 weeks old and so much has changed.  They have doubled in weight, they are sleeping for up to six hours and are eating more and more.  They have already been to Spain, which is another story and they already have three more trips planned.

The days are filled with feeding and errands.  I seem to be going to Duane Reade every day for something.  It is more to get out of the house than anything.  So far the weather has been good so I can get out for a walk in the park.  I am not looking forward to a full day inside when it rains.

The changes with the kids are amazing.  Smiles and cooing are just the start.  They are now awake more often which makes it easier to connect.

I am looking forward to joining some NYC dad's Meetup groups soon so I can meet more stay at home Dads and connect with some adults.
