The Dad is on Vacation (please leave me alone)

Posted on 11/08/201604/19/2025 by Mark

One of the perks of my full-time job at Chase bank is I have 4 weeks of vacation.

When Niko was born, I took 2 weeks of vacation along with 2 weeks of paternity leave.  But, it was no vacation as caring for a newborn baby requires all day and all night attention.  And, for the first week, we were in the hospital.

Now, Niko is 6 months old and doesn’t require constant supervision.  As I am writing this, he is sleeping in his crib and Nina is shopping online!!!

So, I am taking a week off from Chase this week!!! I am very much looking forward to taking the time off and being lazy for a few days…even with the baby and Niko.  We do have things to do and those days will be busy, but otherwise, I am have nothing planned.

Hey, would you believe me if I told you that the Niko and I took nap together Saturday and Sunday!!!  Well, believe it because it happened!!!

My next time off will be the first week of December.
