Sofia & Joshua Gordon Jeff and Angie's tribute to their children

Fussy Friday

Filed under: Sofia's Blog — Jeff Gordon @ 7:16 pm

Today Sofia was awake from 1PM until 7PM.   To date this is highly unusual as Angie and I have become more accustom to the wake up, eat, poop, and sleep patterns with an occasional half hour of alertness.   She was pretty much fussy the entire day even though Angie seemed like she was continually feeding her.   They say babies go thru miniature growth spurts where they eat more than normal but today was a little ridiculous.   I can only pray this doesn’t become commonplace.

We are also beginning to feel a little trapped in.   I can leave to run errands but Angie is on lockdown.   She’s not supposed to drive until next week, has to constantly be here in case Sofia gets hungry, and has basically lived in our bedroom with the occasional appearance in the family room with baby.   At least I can keep myself busy with chores but she can’t even do that.

I’m really just complaining on here because baby is finally asleep and I have no idea what to do with myself.   It is sad when you kind of miss the office.   At least we have visitors coming tomorrow and the Texas OU football game.   I am silly with anticipation.

Mom scares the $&*% out of Daddy

Filed under: Sofia's Blog — Jeff Gordon @ 12:50 pm

Yesterday evening I left Angie in our bedroom to change Sofia.   I went in the office to get a little work done.   Next thing I hear is a frantic “JEFF!!!”   My first reaction is to panic so my heart dropped and I sprinted to the bedroom fearing the worse.   When I get there I see Angie and baby smiling and the evidence of projectile baby poop which had shot off the changing station onto Angie’s pajamas and our comforter.   After we laughed together and cleaned up, I explained to Angie that shreiking my name may cause me bodily injury while I sprint from wherever I am to where she is. 🙂

Below are a few more pictures to enjoy:

Sofia Arrives!

Filed under: Sofia's Blog — Jeff Gordon @ 9:33 am

This will be our attempt to keep everyone up to date with our parenthood experience.

Sofia arrived September 25th and changed our lives forever.   I’ve heard several times the feelings you have towards your child are overwhelming and hard to explain.   I am amazed at how Angie and I immediately fell in love with her and everything about her.   We named her Sofia Alexandra Gordon for no particular reason other than Angie and I really like it.   We think it suits her well.

We brought Sofia home Thursday the 28th.   Our two dogs Flash and Lola were not thrilled with the new addition but have quickly adopted her.   The German Shepherd is the first to become concerned if she is distressed and lets mom and I know it.   Below are some of the pictures we have taken since her birth.   Either Angie or myself will try to keep this up to date.   Thanks for reading!
