With the help of my sister-in-law and mother-in-law, and a midnight formula run by a saintly neighbor, we are surviving and generally enjoying father-son-son time. But we are all sporting clear "I want Mommy!" expressions.<br /><br />I have been trying to keep up with my job from home as I act as jungle gym to my three-year-old and on-demand-noise-maker to my seven-month-old. As a dad I see the gradual sliding onto my keyboard and the split-second warning "Can I jump on you?" as <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">privileges</span> I should reserve to myself, so when I see Ethan squashing or otherwise crowding his younger brother I usually try to slide <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">in between</span> them. I have come in too late a few times this week. More often than not, the shrieks I expected to replace my resigned <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">sighs</span> came out as a particular belly-laugh that only a big brother could evoke.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1fDkNqhVOI0/SjsX7tsenhI/AAAAAAAAAAU/HUdf4gC58ZA/s1600-h/smile.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 290px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348895297078468114" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_1fDkNqhVOI0/SjsX7tsenhI/AAAAAAAAAAU/HUdf4gC58ZA/s320/smile.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Noah knows he has a pretty cool big brother.<br /><br /></div><br /><center><span style="font-size:-2;"><a href="http://whatworksforus.blogspot.com/2007/06/iphone.html" target="_blank" alt="Photostory Friday"><img border="0" alt="PhotoStory Friday" src="http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc50/whatworksforus/pfws.jpg" /></a><br />Hosted by <a href="http://mychaosmybliss.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Cecily</a> and <a href="http://whatworksforus.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">MamaGeek</a> <p></span></center></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5484603293605159391-5037155218233018501?l=ourblurbs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Zachhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454350143233542390noreply@blogger.com4
