A Fishy Scare


So yesterday was my weekly cleaning of my daughters fish tank.

This time she was here when i was going to do it. the reason why i do it when shes asleep or not home is because she always asks to help.

Im thankful that she volunteers to help since she did promise to help if we got her the fish. But we all know it is much easier to do it ourselves.

So my routine is i always place the fishes in a ziplock bag while i change the water and clean the bowl.

Then i zip the bag to just enough where the water will come out and not the fish (risky i know).

So yesterday it happened the fish came out the bag and down the drain. My daughter went into shock she started screaming and running around a house. I went into panick mode.

So i grab an old rug thats under the sink and place it under the pipes to see and hope the fish is still there he is still in the drain. So i rush to get a bag and place it under the pipes and run the water.

Poof there went the fish swimming into the bag. What a relief he was still alive. Now to make up for the scare (and to cover my butt just in case). My daughter added one more fish to her new fish tank. I cant promise this wont happen again since now they are three fishes to clean. Oh yes and now rocks too i have to worry about going down the drain.

Back To Work

So tomorrow is my first day back to work after being off for almost three weeks for the birth of Tai. I guess a lot of people would call it "vacation" but with a new born and a six year old is not even close to being a vacation. But i cant complain because if it wasn't for that "vacation" i would have never gotten the chance to spend the first couple of weeks of my sons life with him and the rest of my family. So i guess i should not complain about it because not that many people can say that they had the same opportunity that i had so i guess i can consider myself lucky. Going back will be tough i will have to get used to not spending all day with them i guess i will just miss them that much more. But hey i get to rock out in my new other new baby that i got this weekend, yes i got a new car and i will be loving listening to all my music in the new loud stereo. Well i better get going now since i have to go to bed soon to be fresh in the morning. Daily grind here i come once again i hope you have missed me the way i will miss my family.

Rocking Dad

So this is my intro to the blogging world. My wife has been blogging for a while and i thought hey i should give it a try. I know they are a whole lot of mommy blogs out there so i figured i should help in adding one more to the daddy bloggers out there. So if any of you have read my wifes blog posts you should know how she cracks you up with our life stories. Now you shall hear my side of her stories. So i am a father of 2 my six year old Princess named Emma and my new Little Monkey Tai who is 2 weeks old now. I guess me and my wife are part of what they call "The New Generation" of parents. We listen to rock and we like all the tattoos we have so i guess you can call us the edgy parents. So a little intro into our world, me and my beautiful wife have been together for twelve wonderful years. i would not be a rocking dad if she would have never given me my two beautiful angels. So i guess thats all i have for now as an intro i know im forgetting some things but you will get it as you keep writing about our many adventures. And remember if you want to hear my wifes versions of our stories her link is on this page so dont forget to follow her as well. Thanks.....
