Well the wife had her first day back to work today. That meant that I had both kids for the whole day by myself. So far I have had a rough morning. I got home two thirty this morning from work and went to bed. It wasn't before to long Michelle was getting up for work so that she could catch the bus. At the same time Christopher was waking up letting me know that it was time to change his diaper and feed him. Well I managed to change his diaper with out a problem. While I was doing that Michelle went down stairs to make him a bottle for me. So Michelle hand me the bottle after I got comfortable with him and then turn on the TV for me so that I wouldn't be board out of my mind. It took Christopher about forty five minutes before he was just about finally done. At the same time Michelle was heading out the door to catch the bus. Just when I thought that I would be able to get back to bed, here come Noelle down the stairs looking for mommy. Now you have to remember that this was about four forty five when she came down the stairs. I simply told her that mommy had to go to work and will be back soon and tried to get her back in bed. Well that failed, only because she was hungry.
Well its now going on ten and Noelle still is up I have had to feed Christopher twice since then. He still doesn't seem to want to go back to sleep. I believe that he is still a little bound up because of the iron that is in the formula. So I feed him about a ounce of good old apple juice. Well I already know that it will give a baby the most nastiest diaper that any body will have to change, but if it will help him have a bowel movement I am game.
Lets seem what happens, all I can do now is wait. I just hope that I can get some shut-eye before I have to go to work next.

Some Changes to the layout!
Hey was messing around with things and I seem figure out how to put music on here. Woo-hoo! Will I am getting this page how I want it. Time will only tell to what i will find next that is cool to put on here.
As for the family, things are going good. Christopher is still not quite sleeping through the night. He seems to do what he wants at the moment. Its only a matter of time before he is on a schedule. Right now he is with he grandmother he in Arizona. She just lives a little ways away from here. She called up and asked if she could have him for the night. My wife was hesitant before letting him go for the night, but after a couple of sleepless nights she had no problem. Grama AKA Nana, was informed that it was a possibility that he she might not get any sleep to night, she didn't seem to mind it though. We will see tomorrow when we see her at troy and Nicole's house for a family get together.
Later on, we have another engagement with my father-in-law. He also invited us over. I think that he is having a labor day party, or get together of some sort. At the same time I can assess the damage to me my wood working tools that are stored over there. The last rain storm that we had flooded his house and there was water every where. If there is damage I hope that my tools can be claimed for insurance comp or some thing. There was a lot of expensive tools that got wet.
Over all things are going good. Right now I should be in bed sleeping. I could sleep, so I started tinkering. First with Photos them my blog. Here is the latest in Photos. Let me know what you think. I once upon a time tried to get into free lance studio work. I would just like to know what people think of my photos that post. Comments and criticism is welcome.
Good night, or I should say morning.

Christopher Duflo new arrival
Well I am new too this blogging thing, and i see that there are a lot of people out there that does it; so i thought that i would give it a try. Here goes.
My name is Jon Duflo, I currently live in Phoenix Az. with my family Michelle (wife) Noelle (daughter) and the newest addition to the family Christopher (son). I moved to Phoenix in september of 2007 because of job related issues. So far its been a good transition to the new surrounding (heat, dirt, the dryness, ect.).
Well the last couple of weeks have been interesting. As I mentioned, we have a new son in our little family. He was born on August 5, 2008 at Scottsdale Healthcare Hospital on Scottsdale Rd and Osborn Rd. The day was very memeroable; though i still remember my daughter birth, it just wasn't the same. My daughters birth, my wife tried to have her naturally but after 5 hrs of strugle the doc said its was time for the last resort, a c-section. I was very disapointed in myself when I had to let my wife go in the operateing room with her cousin. It was a very disapointing moment in my life when i had to make that desicion, only for the fact that i was getting sick. It was a long day in the delivery room with my wife, I hadn't eaten all day and I tried my hardest to support my wife during this history making moment. Needless to say I missed the birth of my daughter, and i wasn't going to let that happen again.
This time I was there for my sons birth. It was all of what I expected it was going to be. This time it was a planed c-section, so we new exactly when he was going to be born. We just didn't expect the events after the c-section.
During the procedure that happens everyday, there was some complications that we didn't plan for, like our son being breeched, or a abnormal loss of blood of both my wife and my son. Just moments after my son was sent out of the operating room and I was told to go with him by my wife; I learned of my sons problems. He had a loss of blood from the complications of the c-section, and he had a respitory problem that the docs want to take a few test and make sure everything was okay. A couple of hours past, the neonatel doctor tells us that our son has some fluid in his lungs that was to be expected and would adventually be absorbed by the lungs and will be fine. So they put him on a oxygen routine and monitored him on his progress.
While all of this was happening we had vistiors that came to see us in the hospital. Most of them was disapointed that they didn't get to see Christopher. That was to be expected. Though Chris my father-in-law (aka grampa to Christopher) was there to lend moral support and to the little guy just as he was born, was able to be the first grandparent to see him. I know that he is very proud and excited to have him here. Latter on michelles brother Troy and his girlfriend Nicole came up to see us followed by Christy with our daughter, Chrissy, and sydney (the cousins from michigan) then my mother-in-law Merriann with her husband. It was interesting to see them there and to see their reactions to the news that they wouldn't be albe to see our son.
Twentyfour hours had past sense our sons birth and he hadn't had any progress and seemed to be have some major problem copeing with his new enviroment. We were told that he was being transfered to a new hospital and would have much better care there. So they prepared to make arangement to transport him, while my wife was trying to see if she would be able to be transfered with him. With a stern no, my wife insisted that she would be released to be able to go see him. This is very uncommon, for a patient to be released 24 hours after a c-section. Mean while my father-in-law got news of the situation and left work early to be with us and to lend moral support. So doctors flooded the room within the next couple of hours checking my wife out and the progress that he had made so far. Surprising enough, my wife's wish was granted and she was released from the hospital.
Later we all regrouped at the hospital on Shea and 90th st to see our litte boy. We found the NICU (Neonatle Intensive Care Unit) were he was located and saw him for the first time sense the other hospital. My wife and I went in first to see him as we approched is side i was deeply sadened to see him. He was covered head to toe with medical stuff to monitor and help him. I just couldn't help myself and I shed a tear with heart felt emotion of seeing my son and the distress that he was in.
Well here is were I am cutting it off. Its time for me to go to bed. Untit next time, I will be thinking of my son.
