Welcome to Mitchell's Crib!!!!
Big Bad Dad here...
While browsing at one of Leigh's Parenting magazines (don't ask), I came across an article about keeping long distance family and friends in the loop on the growth and development of new babies. Amongst those suggestions was creating a blog. So, lest any of you think that this was a geeky, original thought by me, it wasn't. It came from a respectable (?) parenting magazine.
This is where you will find out all sorts of neat stuff about young Mitchell Cain Talley and that merry band of misfits he calls his family. Maybe there will even be a picture or two.
The chief authors of this blog will me and his Mommy. Kamryn may even provide her input occasionally. Mitchell, by virtue of still being in-utero and unable to speak for at least the 18 months immediately following his birth, will be communicating through his Daddy. I will do my best to only communicate his thoughts without injecting any opinions of my own.
(For those of you who are laughing at that last line, please stop.)
As of today, we're still three weeks out (to the day!) but Mitchell never fails to remind us all of his presence. He's a very active child whose sleep patterns don't necessarily mesh with those of his mother...much to her chagrin. He's easily excited by his sister laying on top of him, the sound of his Daddy's voice and "Tommy the Cat" by Primus. Each of these things, as well as some others, send him into such fits of absolute pleasure that I keep expecting him to pop out of his Mommy's torso like that little creature from "Alien"...only a lot cuter and with a better attitude (I hope).
Stay tuned. Add this blog to your "Favorites". Show the love by leaving comments. Send money. Sometime within the next 3 weeks or so, Mitchell will be making his big debut!
