Good morning you two. So today is Sunday 10/17/10. Two days after surgery on my throat. Today is not any better than it was when I woke up from surgery. I am a little nervous not having a voice, and very frustrated.
Nervous because I know I am going to have to talk in the next couple of days to Ross and find out about the job. I don't want it to affect my chances of getting the job. I feel really good about the chances and think they are going to hire me. If that happens it is going to be great for you two and mom. It would be basically and 8 to 5 job Monday through Friday. My whole working life I have been trying to reach that point and I am so close. It would be so great to have a consistant schedule and know the days off I will have so we can plan stuff as a family and do things that everyone else does. Enjoy holidays like they are meant to be enjoyed and all that good stuff. I really got my fingers crossed.
Frustrated because it is so hard to communicate with Grandma and Grandpa and Mommy. I hate when they ask me questions that require more than just a head nod. I hate when they act like I am deaf too. I can hear just fine, I just cant talk. To their defense I know it is very frustrating for them too. They get frustrated when they don't know what I want or expect or am thinking, etc etc.
I am so grateful that Grandma and Grandpa come out to help every time I go through this. It help Mommy and me so much. And besides the help, it is just fun to have them around. Booger, I think you are really noticing that now. I can't wait for you both to be at the age where you get really excited to see them. I remember when I was a kid and your uncle Jared and I would be excited to see our grandparents.
We used to have all kinds of fun going to Grandma Lilje's house and always swimming in her pool. Those are some great memories for me. Grandma and Grandpa Daly's house was fun too. They lived on a few acre's. We used to be able to ride our bikes everywhere, climb trees, catch lizards, shoot BB guns, go fishing. It was a lot of fun and I know you two are going to have as much fun with all of your Grandparents.
Love you both. Dad.

Day eight
Good morning kids,
Two things today: Bullying and Dad's throat.
There is a lot on the news about the Bullying of children. There are always going to be bullies in the world. I can tell you that I've been a bully and I have also been bullied and I made it through both phases and came out pretty good. I have a life now that was not hard to acheive. It just took patience. Don't tell your mom, but I have incredible patience. Ha ha. Both girls and boys can be victims or instigators. Neither is good. I think the most important thing to know about it is you need to have a strong mind. I know your mom and I are going to raise you to have the strongest mind possible. We are going to do our best to make sure you know the difference between right and wrong and know what matters and what doesn't. I hope neither of you become a bully or get bullied. Just know that your mom and I love you both very very much no matter what. Your childhood is going to be full of ups and downs but ultimatley I know you are going to love it!!
I had surgery on my throat again. It makes #48 for me. To make a long story short, in college I had a scratch on my vocal chords that got infected. That infection caused a virus that I have to become active and start a growth. About every 6 months or so, I have to have the growth removed. When I do have it removed, I lose my voice for a couple of days. It always makes things at work difficult for me and right now is a little stressful because there is a possiblity I may be changing jobs as you know. I think I can get through that with a little planning etc. The toughest part is with you Booger. You are talking so much right now! It is so great to see. The only problem is that you talk to me and ask me questions and I can't answer. I know you don't understand and I can see the confusion on your face when I don't answer. I'm sorry Booger. Daddy needs to be quite for a couple of days so I can get better. There is no pain in my throat, just pain in my heart. In this stage of your life you are developing so much. Your vocabulary gets bigger everyday. It's tough to know you don't understand why I can't talk to you. You will one day, I promise. Love you both. Dad.

Day seven
Hey kids. Well I had an interview yesterday and I think it went pretty good. It makes me excited to have the opportunity to advance my career and provide a better life for Mommy and you two.
It sounds like they (Ross) may put me in a position running 5 or 6 stores rather than the normal 10 or 11. It would really be a great chance for me to take this on and learn/develope my leadership skills and see what might be even further in the future.
So last week I told you about the miners in Chilie that were about to be rescued. Finally all of them were brought to safety. It took almost an entire day to bring all of them to the surface. I can't imagine being trapped underground for over two months. Its funny talking to your mom about it. She always brings up the issue that a couple of miners actually had mistresses and the wives and mistresses were showing up. This caused a little tension I'm sure.
Bret Farve is still in trouble. If all of the allegations are true, it's really dissappointing to me. Not just Bret but the bad decisions of many people that I look up to. Whether it is someone that is cheating at sport or cheating on their wife, or cheating at work to get results. I just don't understand it.
It is so important for you both to be true to yourselves and the ones you love. Don't let the outside sources lead either of you in the wrong direction. I know the pressures are going to feel pretty extreme at times, but I also know that your mom and I are going to do our best to prepare you for stuff like that and give you the understanding of how to make the best decisions you can.
Tomorrow I am having surgery on my throat again. I think this makes number 46 or so. I lost count. I know it is going to go off without a hitch, but I am always concerned with what the long term effects are. I can't help but think worst case scenario. I do that with everything. At least I think I do.
This good news is Grandma and Grandpa are coming today!! I love when they come to visit. Its always great to have them around. We have a lot of fun either working on a project or just spending the time together talking about old memories and what the future holds. It looks like Grandma is going to stay with us for a little while and help Mommy around the house while we wait these last couple weeks for you Jagger to be born. Sloane, you have so much energy and are so curious that at this point Mommy has a hard time keeping up!! Shoot... even I have a hard time but we both love it. The best part of every day for me is when I come home and walk into the house. The first thing I hear is Mommy say "Who's home?" and you screaming "Daddy" and run up to meet me at the door. I love it and can't wait to hear the same thing from you Jagger!!
Love you both! Dad.

Day six
Sorry you two I skipped another day. Had a pretty good day yesterday. Jagger, I got your crib ready to go. All mom has to do is put the sheets and pillows on and you're ready to go!! Now the big thing is waiting for you to be born. Everyday gets closer and closer and I know your mom wishes you would show up sooner than later. She went to the doctor yesterday and you are at 36 weeks. They say when you reach that point, you are out of the danger zone and can be born any time without incident. I for one, just want you around. It's gonna be a hard couple of months with the feeding and sleeping, but we are gonna do just fine. I don't think Booger really know's what's in store though. I am sure she things mommy's big belly is actually baby Jagger. It's gonna be fun to see how she is when you are finally a part of our everyday.
I got a job interview today. Kind of caught me off guard. I had interviewed with Ross about almost two months ago and was turned down, but out of the blue they called me two days ago and want to set up another one. I got my fingers crossed. I hope they want to interview me for a district manager position. I would miss Old Navy if I were to take a job at Ross though. I have done so much in the past three years. My main reason for moving your mom and I down to Vegas three years ago was to be a top performer and advance my career. So far I have only succeeded in one area. I have been the top performer for two years running, taken on many different assignments, driven results at both store and district level, but have hit a road block that I can't seem to get around. For one reason or another the Regional Director doesn't care for me and that is really a career staller. She certainly won't come out and admit it but I can tell. That's kind of a funny situation that I know each of you will come across in your lives. For one reason or another there is going to be someone who doesn't care for you. People are weird. I know the two of you are both going to grow up and be incredible people and will be able to rise above the petty things like someone who is not a fan of yours, but for some reason I can't get past this person. Time to change course and get a career that will really start to take off!
Thats it for now you two. Love you both. Dad.

Day five
Sorry you two, I skipped a few days. Had a pretty productive weekend. Got the guest bedroom finished. Painted the molding. Also got Jaggers stroller built up and Sloane's old stroller packed up and ready to ship out. Someone bought it on ebay for $100!! I also got the garage cleaned up a little and found some more stuff for your mom to sell on ebay. Got the lawn mowed and the backyard cleaned up to!
Lets see as far as news goes there was a shooting on a lake boardering Mexico and Texas. A couple rode their jet ski's to the Mexican side of the lake to take pictures of a church. They were attacked and shot at by pirates and the Man was killed. The woman was able to escape but not before trying to hoist her husband onto her jet ski. He was to heavy for her and the pirates were shooting at her so she had to leave him in the water to save herself. Pretty sad. I can't imagine being in that situation and having to make that decision. Life really isn't easy sometimes.
More news.. There have been some miners trapped in a mine half a mile underground for two months now. The mine they were working in collapsed and they were able to find a spot to stay in. Luckily, Chile has been able to dig an escape tunnel and all the men are going to be pulled out. Scary thing is they tunnel is no bigger than a bicycle tire. They are going to be pulled up a half a mile through that tunnel.
More news.. Another sports figure, one of my favorites, has made a bad judgement. It looks like Bret Favre has send some messages to a woman he worked with while playing with the Jets. Some of the messages were not the type a person should be sending to someone else they work with. Whay bugs me most is that the messages he sent are not the type a man should be sending another woman if he is married. Guys I don't really understand why those things happen and it seems there is a lot of it going on. Whether it is in the news or close to home this stuff happens. I won't get into the details now, but I am sure I will later. Just no one thing.. I would never do anything like that to your mom. I may get mad at her, but I know I am lucky she loves me and I love her very much. It may not seem like it sometimes, but there is nothing more important to me than you two and Mommy. I love all three of you!! Dad.

Day four
10/8/10
Well you two, I slept much better last night than I have for about a week. I think it has a lot to do with my conference at work almost being over. Last thing to wrap up.... Fashion show for you Boog! You and mommy will get there about a half an hour after me but it should be pretty cool!
So I have to have surgery on my vocal chords again next Friday. I think it will be number 45 or 46. I don't really keep track but I know Grandpa does.
It should go pretty smooth, as that is what I am used to.
I do think about my condidtion (RRP) more than I used to though. It used to be just a little set back for me but now with Mommy, and you two I think a lot about what it could turn into. I don't know if this is good to share with you both, not knowing what age you read this, or Mommy reads it to you but I am scared this could turn into something terminal and I won't be around to watch you two grow up. I don't think that is likely, but it is a possibility, and I know it has happened to other people with the same condition.
This brings me to another point. For some reason I always think worse case scenario. It never affects my ability to make the right decision, but it does drive me crazy. I really wish I could just make decisions some times without worrying about what "might" happen. I guess the good part about it though is the fact that I usually feel pretty good about how to handle a situation if it does not turn out good.
Ok.. enough downer stuff. Day off tomorrow and get to pick up new bike today!!!! Love you both. Dad.

Day three
10/7/2010
I think one thing I will try to do is tell you two about what's going on in the world and how I see it so if you do read this stuff, you might get a little insight to what your dad is thinking. I am sure I won't be the best at explaining everything but I know by the time either of you may read this you can just "google it". Now that I think about it, it probably wont' even be google that you use to look things up. For that matter, it may be something different than the internet.
So... with that I know I am not that well versed in politics and internationl world affairs but I do know a little about sports. I will tell you two about politics etc when I can though.
Couple things going on in sports currently. Baseball playoffs are heating up. Roy Halladay from the Phillies pitched a no hitter last night. Big deal with that is it was his first start in a post season game. Pretty cool feeling he must have huh? Basketball pre season has started. "The big three" in Miami is all the talk. Lebron James, Chris Bosch, and Duane Wade are supposed to lead the Miami Heat to the finals. One game in and Wade is already injured. WE will see what happens as the season rolls on. Huge trade in football yesterday. The patriots traded their star reciever to the Vikings. Randy Moss is now playing with Bret Favre. That is good for dad. I like Bret Favre. I like anyone who is my age (40) and can compete at the highest level of any sport and be effective. But..... the biggest thing in sports to me is always cycling. Lst years tour de france winner has been caught doping which means he took performance enhancing drugs. Alberto Contador is actually being investigated for two infractions. There were traces of clenbeuterol in his blood and now authorities are saying that he may have done blood transfusions as well. Even though Contador is not one of my favorite riders, it still makes me very sad that these riders have to cheat to win. I am sure I will write one day in detail my thoughts on cheating but for now I will just tell you it is no way to win. When people cheat to win, they are not really winning at all. The playing field should always be equal. There are many different forms of cheating and I promise you both. It is no way to win.
Mommy is still not quite feeling that great. Jagger you are gonna be a big boy. I think pretty active and full of life too!!! Can't wait till you get here. I think its gonna be sooner than later!
Booger, you had another rehearsal last night for my conference at work. I got a little nervous feeling last night as we were going through the motions. Now that I am gonna be on stage with you gives me a little uneasy feeling. Luckily I don't have to say anything! ha ha. Walking out on the stage with over 1300 people in the audience is a little nerve racking. I know you are gonna do great though. We practiced smiling and waving and you were doing awesome!!
Love you both. Dad.

Day two.
10/5/10 Day 2. Not much more to write since I just did this last night before bed. Did have some funky dreams though. Normally I don't have to many weird dreams, it's usually your mom. Had a dream that your cousin Elizabeth and friend Parker were both talking as good as adults. You two weren't talking that good at all and I was frustrated.
Lots on my mind today. Big visits at work. Don't really know what those are going to be like etc.
Kind of a two day post here you guys. The visits at work were really uneventful.
Booger went to rehersal for a fashion show at work last night. Rehearsal again today should be interesting. Past your bedtime. Past mom and dads bed time too! I think we will be ok though.
I worry about your mom a little with all the walking she has to do to get there though but I think she will be fine.
Jagger.. I thought you were coming last night. You gave mom some funky feelings last night and thought we were going to rush to the hospital. Whew!!!! everything calmed down as mommy was able to relax.
I have some meetings at work for the next few days. A conference really. Don't like them to much, but it's only three days!
Love you both. Dad.

Day one.
Ok you two... I have decided to create this blog just to communicate things that I don't always express and don't always say. Today is 10/4/2010 and your mom and I are watching House Hunters on HGTV. This is something we used to do all the time in San Diego but don't do so much any more. Booger you are asleep on the brown chair and your mom is sipping tea while sitting in the same chair. You really don't want to cuddle with me anymore, but I am sure that will change as time goes on. It is so fun to see you go through stages in your life and watch you grow. Only a month ago you would move from sitting with me to sitting with your mom and say you wanted to cuddle with each of us.
Just last night I made you let me give you a bath when you wanted to take a shower with your mom. You certainly didn't want to take the bath, but didn't have much option when I picked you up and just took you upstainrs and put you in the bath. You cried the whole time but I wouldn't let you get out until you stopped. I was so proud to see understand what I was saying when I told you you couldn't get out until you stopped crying. It only took a couple minutes and you stopped. The best part for me was that I could see you wanted to cry, or thought you wanted to cry but you held it in so I would let you out.
After the bath you cried in the room as we were getting you dressed, but again I told you that you couldn't go down stairs and se mommy until you stopped crying. Again you stopped, although difficult for you, you did and we got you dressed and mommy eventually came upstairs instead.
I really love to watch you learn and understand wha is going on around you.
Jagger..... you aren't born yet, but you are really giving your mom a tough time. Seems you are kicking a lot and hurting her ribs and bladder... guess that's why she pee's all the time! ha ha. Doc say's you are gonna be a big boy when you are born. Neither me or your mom can wait!! We are so excited for you to be a part of our family!! You have the best big sister in the world and I know you are going to be a great little bro!
I am excited to take care of you and watch you grow!!
I am getting ready for a big conference at work this week. Lots of VP's and the like gonna be in my store this week. I don't think it is gonna be that big of a deal though. For the most part I run a pretty good store. It's just the dog and pony show that drives me crazy at times.
I think I am gonna try and dedicate a few minutes each day to this blog for you both.
Love you both so much. Dad.
Just last night I made you let me give you a bath when you wanted to take a shower with your mom. You certainly didn't want to take the bath, but didn't have much option when I picked you up and just took you upstainrs and put you in the bath. You cried the whole time but I wouldn't let you get out until you stopped. I was so proud to see understand what I was saying when I told you you couldn't get out until you stopped crying. It only took a couple minutes and you stopped. The best part for me was that I could see you wanted to cry, or thought you wanted to cry but you held it in so I would let you out.
After the bath you cried in the room as we were getting you dressed, but again I told you that you couldn't go down stairs and se mommy until you stopped crying. Again you stopped, although difficult for you, you did and we got you dressed and mommy eventually came upstairs instead.
