Well Brett Farve burned the Broncos in overtime tonight but thats okay. Jonathan and I had a good time watching the game together. There are a couple more photos up on the flickr site. Just click this picture to get to them.

A small prayer request. Please continue to keep all of us in your prayers as in regards to health. Work is busy for me, which often makes my immune system drop, Edith obviously gets very little rest, and Jonathan needs your continued prayers and support for happy health.

Father Knows Best and the Prodigal Pug

Me and Jonathan crashed for a little bit tonight. He actually isn't sleeping as much anymore, which makes the days crazy. I think he spends more time eating during the day now than sleeping. But hey, so do I!

So Chiquita the Wonder Pug got out into the back yard yesterday. The backyard for those who don't know is pretty massive. All of a sudden Ediths brother was like, "where's the dog?", that was when we saw the back door was open. Chiquita is so small she could get out under the gates so there was some concern, but after a little bit of calling she ran on of the darkness. Our own Prodigal Pug! :)

This is Jonathan after his first "REAL" bath, mom and grandma ortiz did it all. I was out running errands. From what I hear it was a mixed time of emotions. That is a little duck hoodie he has on there, it is hard to tell though.

Pondering his position

That is Jonathan, the future football star. That is of course if he decides to play football, as any dad would say, he can grow up to be anything he wants to be....excluding an Oakland Raider Fan.

So last night I was changing his diaper and all of a sudden there was poo everywhere, it just kept coming and coming. Poop, Poop, and more liquidy poop. YUCK. We had a good laugh, I still think him peeinglike a fountain was funnier though, of course maybe that was because it happened to Edith and not me.

For those of you who didn't know, I took to calling Jonathan Popeye before we had a name for him. Well, without even seeing and episode of Popeye he has decided to do his best imitation. Edith wouldn't let me give him a corn pipe, but still not bad huh?

Things are good here, the fires are crazy though. They are all a good distance away, although we did have a little ash on the cars this morning from the OC fire. Not as bad as a few years ago though. The sky was darker then usual tonight before the sun was even ready to set due to all the smoke.

Watching the Bronco game with Jonathan as Edith takes a break. Much better game so far tonight compared to our last game together! (Chargers crushed the Broncos!) I got some great Bronco gear for Jonathan from my sister Tricia, should fit any day now. Jonathan keeps growing and growing.

Here is a cute picture of him, a little fuzzy because I didn't use the flash, wanted his eyes OPEN!

Parents



Been busy with Jonathan these last few days. Nice to have my mom and dad in town, and they are enjoying time with Jonathan as well. Last couple days though we aren't ready to get out of the house till the afternoon. We are slaves to Jonathan and his sleeping and eating schedule.

That all said I am a very happy daddy. Jonathan is awesome, handsome, and the best of Edith and me. Only thing that is sad is that I have to leave and return to work at the end of the week.

Doing his best imitation of a fountain Jonathan let lose today all over his momma. It was a funny moment to start off the day. That little spot on the camera isn't pee, at least I don't think it is! :)

Jonathan is dong well, although he likes staying up for hours at a time and then sleeping at hours at a time, which isn't very good as he is suppose to be on s 2-3 hour eating schedule. But other than that all is well.

My parents came to visit for a few days, it was very nice to have them here for a few days

He looks like Edith.



This phrase I here over and over again. And although we see some features in him that resemble me, I have to agree that there is no mistaking that he is the son of Edith. Check out these pictures of Edith and Jonathan.

Back at Home

We are back at home already. Edith is resting, baby is asleep and I am typing away, trying to keep you all updated. Baby is doing well, although he isn't very happy with me since I sent him off with the doctor and asked them to "snip the tip".

Here is the link to a new video. Check out those eyes!

Jonathan Douglas

J.D. was born October 2nd at 7:13 pm at St. Joseph Hospital in Orange He weighed 8.5 pounds Was 19.5 inches long. Due to his size Edith had to have a c-section. She is slowly recovering, in some pain but not anything beyond what would be expected.

The worse part is that we went in Monday Night and took all day today trying to induce. We got the strong painful contractions, but not the dialation, eventually the doctor said enough and Jonathan is here! Because of the lack of private rooms Edith is in a room with a second bed, and although nobody is in that bed hospital rules say I can't stay the night. So I am home, eating some Taco Bell, and posting this. I will be back at the hospital early tomorrow morning. Thank you all for your prayers.

Check out the following link for a video of little JD
