Full Time Dad

I can't believe it but time is really creeping up on me. It's 2009 and in a few hours it the 2nd of January. I work tomorrow (friday) and one day next week (monday) and then I am officially on my paternity leave... for 7 months! It feels so strange and so unreal. I've known this for a long time but it hasn't really hit me yet. It's kind of like when we expected Milton, we knew he was on the way but until he acctually came into the world it wasn't real.

What will I do now, during the days ? I've never been a full time dad (well, yes I have but not at home the whole time) so how will my days look like now ? I do look forward to the end of the 5th (my last day at work) and I am pretty sure I will dread the 29th of July. That is the day I start work again. A lot of things will happen during the first part of this year like the birth of Miltons sister/brother, summer vacation in Finland and news about our potential house in the country (will it land or crash ?). I guess I just have to take it one day at a time.

I took this picture on New Years Eve with my phone. This will be an everyday picture of me and my son for the next 7 months. I really can't wait :)
