Welcome! This is the first post under the new domain – MWilbanks.com.

It’s amazing how much time and energy an infant can take from you – or rather, how much time and energy you give to them. Combine that with working full time, building WordPress blogs part time and all the other responsibilities that most people have, (paying bills, doing laundry, grocery shopping, trying to exercise, etc) and free-time is a phrase that seems more like a long lost memory than something that was taken for granted before.

While things are still busy, sleep has slowly returned over the last few months and things seem to have started gaining a sense of normalcy again. Hopefully this means I’ll be able to carve out some regular time to post here, complete the SAmountainBike.com site and finish transforming Beanarita.com into the the most random site on the internets. Speaking of Beanarita, you’ll notice that all the old posts from that site are now here and there is only a single page there now. Stay tuned…

This is who all my energy has been going to lately:

If you want to see a few more pics of her, head over to KatherineWilbanks.com.

That’s all for now. Check back soon for updates. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think about this place.

Thanks for stopping by!

Katherine was born November 10, 2009, in San Antonio, TX at 7:51am weighing 5 lbs 3 oz and measuring 17 inches long. She was born 3 weeks premature and, prior to delivery, was expected to stay in the hospital for almost a month in the newborn intensive care unit.

The morning of her delivery was bittersweet for me and my wife. We were excited that we were going to be able to see her, but pretty depressed that we were not going to be able to take her home for almost a month – or even hold her for longer than a few minutes after delivery.

Thankfully, Katherine arrived almost 2 lbs heavier than the doctors expected and very healthy. She never went to the NICU and was able to come home with us after only 2 days in the hospital.

The happiest moment of my life was in the delivery room after they weighed her and announced her weight. She’s perfect!
