He weighs about 10lbs and is just over 6 weeks old. Check out those cheeks and double chin…definitely nibble-worthy.


Baby Love

23Jul09

We are all settling in surprisingly well so far. Of course, I haven’t set up a schedule yet that includes housework, but it’s only been a week, so I think I’m doing alright. The dishes and laundry get done; the kids are bathed, fed mostly wholesome meals and happy; the puppy is taken care of [...]


We are all quite smitten with our new bundle of joy.
6lbs 8oz, 19 1/4 inches long
Please forgive me if I take a small blog break to enjoy my new sweet boy.


For my mama

09Jul09

37 weeks. I promised my mama I would post this picture yesterday afternoon. Then we got home and I started dinner and completely forgot. Sorry Mama.
So, I had my 37 week appointment yesterday and my ob said that everything looks well (although my fluid is back down to 7.5 but that’s okay because [...]


I originally posted this on my Facebook and wanted to share it with you all.
First of all, I am measuring 36 weeks & 4 days. I will be 37 weeks on Wednesday & considered “full-term.”
Okay, so I went called my doctor yesterday afternoon because Seth wasn’t moving like “normal” and I was told that since [...]


Lunch picnics under makeshift tents in the living room. The quilt she’s sitting on…$6.50 at the thrift store. Looove it.

Frequent, but short, trips outside to play with the puppy. Just for the record, I did let her in after I took the picture. I just love the way she holds her; almost like cradling a [...]


Tank top and gaucho’s…gotta love it.

Oh yea…and I’m 33 weeks today. You can’t see her, but Kait is actually standing behind me trying to get into the bathtub. Yea, that did wonders for my self-esteem…haha.
And because I just want to eat her sometimes:

gotta love the milk beard and bitter strawberry face.


Randomness

-Today marks Day 2 of me feeling like crud. It’s nothing serious; I’ve just been feeling very large the past couple of days. Seth is way high in my ribs but also down low in my hips, so I can’t get any relief. I can’t seem to find a position that will get him out [...]


One of her own

“Mama, can I push my ‘troller now?”

We found this little stroller at Traders Village in Houston for $5. She plays with it every. single. day. She’s also getting  a new baby doll for her birthday and I’m hoping that the stroller and the baby will help her prepare for her brother’s arrival.
I’ve been concentrating on [...]


The shirt says “baby bump” but a friend of mine teasingly says “baby blimp” would be more fitting. I do feel like the Goodyear blimp some days. I know I’ve said it before, but this pregnancy is so much different than my first two. I do realize that each pregnancy is different, but man this one [...]
