Ajax

For those of you who don’t know, there is a baby in my house and it’s not mine.  (Insert joke here).  While it has been rumored that I have been supporting 2 kids in Seattle for years (child support is a bitch), it’s not really the case.  I can thank my good friend Dave Wernz for working a tall tale that has had some legs.  However, there actually is a kid in my house, and his name is Ajax.

Ajax is the son of my friends and roommates Josh and Stacy Knoechel.  I got to see Ajax the day he was born and basically every day since.  He gets stronger and cooler every day.  Now, he’s even been in his bouncy chair that attaches to a spring on the door frame.  It’s a mini crossfit workout.

With Ajax in the house, my wife loves giving him gifts.  She’s already given him some aden and anais blankets, which Stacy loves.  Of all of the swaddling blankets they had for him, she swears the aden and anais are the best because of how large they are.  Since he is growing, the only blanket he can be swaddled with are from that 4 pack.  He also has grown into his sleep sacks, which he loves.  Outside of blankets, the kid has plenty of toys.  There’s really no sense in buying him more because his dad is a minimalist.  I’m pretty sure Josh has 7 shirts, if that.  When you are living in 1 house with 2 families, there’s no other roommate I’d rather have.

Ajax has some great parents, and I can’t wait until he gets older.  His training has already begun, and I’m excited to watch him grow into the likeness of his father.  One day, he’ll grow up to look like this:
