Follow along through the challenges of fatherhood and fitness

Follow me as I grow as a father, continue to improve my fitness, and hopefully continue losing weight towards my goal of 60lbs (10lbs to go! 8.25.12).

I never set out to be overweight but I love beer, wine, scotch, and all sorts of terrible food. I didn't choose to get out of shape it just sort of happened. All that changed when I found out my wife was pregnant in December 2010. I decided it was time to set myself up to be a fitdad not a fatdad.

No one ever said it would be easy though. Dealing with a newborn and trying to continue exercising as well as being there for my wife as her husband and friend. As our son gets older and our family grows what impact will that have on my fitness and diet? Stay tuned to find out! Subscribe via email, or add me to your reader.

7 Months!

On Saturday Noah coasted on through the 7 month anniversary of his birth day!  He is developing quite the personality these days.  He is just a joyful, happy, and silly little boy.  While he may not be breaking any land speed records on his way to crawling...he loves to hold your hands and stand.  He can sit and play with his toys for literally hours on end.  We are learning how fun a baby can be when they are teething and on limited sleep (sarcasm).  Noah is sampling the culinary masterpieces of his wonderful mother as she makes all sort of delicious vegetable purees for him!  Broccoli, green beans, peas, zucchini, and yellow squash have been on the menu since he turned 6 months.  While he was hesitant at first with the peas, he is really getting the hang of this whole chewing thing now!  As a first time parent it is really enjoyable to experience these things with him for the first time.  I am reading up now on some parenting books and methods to help better understand how I can help Noah develop into a strong, independent, courteous, and responsible individual.  I will post a review after I finish reading.

Without further adieu here are the 7 month and St. Patty's Day pictures!

Thanks for reading!
