It’s a girl?!!
The Wilson family welcomes our new daughter, Natalie, to the dysfunctional world of Wilson Family Dynamics.
To the surprise of you all, I’m seriously sleep deprived. Actually, Natalie is a sleeping machine, but the nurses are keeping Susan and I up
all hours of the night. Last night, we were up until about midnight. The nurses brought Natalie in for a feeding at about 4:45, and I’ve been up since then. Needless to say, I was dragging a
little at work today. Susan comes home tomorrow (so does Natalie), so at least tomorrow night well only be at the mercy of the kids schedules.
I got my first crack at changing one of Natlalie’s diapers last night. It was a disastrous repeat of my first diaper change with Jake. As soon
as I took the diaper off, Natalie decided it was time to go 0, 1, and 2 all at the same time (“0” meaning she hacked up all over her blanket). I forgot how quick these little suckers are to go
once you get their diapers off. Its like a game of beat the clock. You’d better not fumble around once that diaper is off, or you’re just asking for trouble.
I must admit that I was a little intimidated by my little girls anatomy. I mean, I’ve been “handling” the male anatomy all my life, and when I
first learned to change Jake, at least I was comfortable in the fact that I new were everything was. With girls, it’s all different. If you wipe them the wrong way, you can make them sick, and
there’s no “flag pole” warning that they might be ready to release the flood gates. Nonetheless, I’m confident I can step up to the challenge and master the art of diaper changing once again.
We don’t have any new pictures of Natalie to post. Sorry. I broke my digital camera the morning she was born, and we’re waiting to finish up a
new roll of film. I promise I’ll post those soon, along with some great pictures of Jake that we took at Chucky Cheeses the night before his little sister was born. I’ve also got some new
writings to post to the MindSpeak section. Check back, and give me some hell if I’ve become too procrastinate, and need to update the site. I’ll speak at you again soon.

Wow, It’s great to look back on this web site every now and again, and remember what life was like “back then.” This thing is almost like a time capsule. The last major work on the site was done
to promote the arrival and first holidays for my first born. Now Jake is about to become a big brother, and it’s time to press the web site back into active service. I’m excited to spend a little
quality time bringing the content on this baby up-to-date. I’ve got some stuff I’ve really wanted to add to the MindSpeak section. And, of course, there will be some pictures to add to the MiniMe
Number 2 pages. Heck, if I go crazy, maybe I’ll even drop pics of Jake on the web site that have been taken in the last year.
One of the great things about these life events, is that it gives me an excuse to get in touch with all of my friends and family and see how everyone’s doing. I hope I find you all well. Every day
brings new possibilities for both good and bad changes, but I can say that things here in Lincoln, NE are good for the Wilson family. We’ve recently bought a new house (to make room for the new
family member), and have been slowly trying to make it feel like home. My job is going well, and everyone’s healthy. I hope that trend continues on.
Well, Number 2 is due for arrival in about 8 hours. If you’re interested, please check back frequently as I add new pictures and commentary over the next couple of days and weeks. Living Large.
