family life

Well it’s only the biggest sporting event in America!  It’s the championship game for the National Football League.  Still don’t know?!!  It’s a very big American football game!  OHHHH!!!

I had this conversation with at over 10 people in the last few days.  To their credit most of them live in a country that doesn’t play football in the middle of the countryside surrounded by mountains. Even still if you are any kind of sports fan the phrase “Super Bowl”should ring a bell or at be somewhat familiar. Here in Japan, baseball is the primary sport.  I would say the Japanese Baseball League Championship is the biggest sporting event here.  Although its viewers are only a fraction of what the Super Bowl has.

As the festivities have died down and the clean up begins it marks the end to yet another Super Bowl.

I want to give a big congratulation to the Seahawks and especially their D for shutting down Manning and the Broncos.  I have never been a fan of either so I am happy with the outcome.  As Denver are division rivals with the Chargers.

This week was one of those times that I really miss home for all the friends, family, and festivities.  There was not one mention of Super Bowl here and it was kind of disappointing. Hopefully I can make it back to San Diego soon so the Chargers can finally win a Super Bowl!

What do you think the odds are on that happening in the next two years??

Well our little man is getting smarter everyday.  He now shakes his head when he doesnt want or approve of something.  He also is waving his hand Bye Bye to everyone!  He knows who is around him and makes a fuss when Mommy or Daddy leave him to go out of the room.

Mommy wont let him cry for even 10 seconds so he is always being held and pampered(by me too).  He is defenitely spoiled!  And he has yet to fall asleep on his own accord without being cuddled, held, or patted to sleep.  Actually he has been sleeping terribly lately and waking up at least 3 times a night.  Usually its just for a change and bottle but he is turning 10 months this week and Daddy is hoping for a good night sleep sometime soon…..praying for a good night sleep more like it!

Not sure if its all babies but Noah loves being naked which really isnt great considering where we live.  He always is smiling and trying to run away so we dont put his clothes back on.  Im hoping that this summer we can take the diapers off and let him run with some undies and potty train him early.

He is still eating quite a bit and at least every 2 hours!  He is growing fast and constantly growing out of his clothes.  With his clothes, food, milk, and diapers I had no idea babies are so expensive.  But he is worth every penny and so cute!

Hope he can say HI to everyone soon!
