Lazy Sunday...

Dear Nicky,

Didn't get much done today, but it was a nice, mellow day. Your grandpa and Uncle Jon came over for some delicious spaghetti dinner that Mom made. I drank way too much Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke.

Love,
Dad

More deck wash...

Dear Nicky,

I was up till two this morning, then I did some more powerwashing today. I'm so tired I feel sick. Sorry I'm not posting much.

Love,
Dad

Deck wash...

Dear Nicky,

I've been cleaning the deck outside all day. It's a lot of work, and it's hot too. I'm beat. Mom baked a cake. You sure made a mess of yourself eating it. You got a bath and went to bed. You still fuss a lot in bed.

Love,
Dad

Hunger strike...

Dear Nicky,

Once again you arrived passed out this afternoon. I put you to bed and you napped a good two hours solid. I love when you sleep well. When you woke you played in your room a bit, then joined Junie and me downstairs. I made a nice dinner, which you completely didn't touch. You didn't even want any banana after. I then gave you guys a bath and put you to bed.

Love,
Dad

Eyes burning...

Dear Nicky,

I'm suddenly so sleepy my eyes are burning. I'll write more tomorrow.

Love,
Dad

Napping during the rain...

Dear Nicky,

This afternoon you came home passed out again, but this time you slept well because at one point it grew quite dark and thunderstormed outside. Nothing like sleeping during a rainy day. We had pizza bagels for dinner, and Mom gave you a bath while I went to Borders.

Love,
Dad

Summer Stones starts...

Dear Nicky,

This morning Mom got you already for school, which began again today. She got you dressed in your swimsuit and slathered you with sunscreen. The driver was the same driver we had last summer, a nice Arabic lady. They were here right on time. After you went off, I got Junie ready for Santa Fe with her bathing suit and sunscreen. Then I came home, had something to eat and went to the gym. Soon it was time to collect June, and she and I went to Target to get some things. We would have gone to the bookstore as well, but she dropped a big deuce in her pants and we had to come home. I put her down for a nap, then you came home shortly afterward. You were passed out, but you didn't nap long. We hung out the rest of the afternoon, had some dinner (pancakes, this evening), had a nice bath, and went to bed. I think you're finally getting used to the new bed setup.

Love,
Dad
