He's going to be old enough for the Burley come the spring, Ben. I don't know that I was on my Volae more than three times this past summer. Man, that's sad.

I second the fragfest and the great man comments, and add:

- photo walks
- bike rides
- cooking
- beer fests (root beer and pretzels for the foreseeable future)

The wrestling scenario sounds familiar, all right. Man, did my brother and I used to have some knock-down-drag-outs. Whew. I'm talking fisticuffs.

I'm eager to see if Emmett's going to be easier than Ava. I sure hope he is. How could he not be? Leah's pretty not-girly, too, so it's a wonder Ava is as well dressed and coiffed as she is.

I do miss a good game of UT now and then….

Anything I can do to help the chalice meet the blade.

See, we have two boys, and I need to prepare myself. Today, they spent all morning wrestling on the couch, with the little one (3 yrs old) howling and growling and eventually crying. When I'd break it up, and tell them not to fight, they would both say they were playing, and then they'd go back at it. Rinse, lather, repeat.

I used to hope we'd raise little sensitive men who would bring flowers, and put the toilet seat down, and never leave their Mom.

Now, I just thank God we don't have girls, as my wife is so not-girly that we really wouldn't have a clue what to do. (I think I am more girly than she is.)
