Faces of Logan (4.5 wks)

Faces of Logan (4.5 wks)

Our baby makes some pretty ridiculous faces.  We generally have a laugh fest every single day because of some face that he makes.  Last week, I busted out the camera and did a mini FatBaby photoshoot.  Here are the photos... and my thoughts about each face. 🙂 This...

Adventures in Penny Pinching: Coupons

So, I recently started following a blog about saving money.  Through my reading on this blog, I've discovered how much money can be saved by doing little things... like clipping coupons.  Chris and I are notorious for spending a crap ton of money at the grocery store....

Life with a baby: Week 5 (1 month!)

Life with a baby: Week 5 (1 month!)

I have a 5 week old baby today.  I know that I say it every week, but time sure flies by. We had to go back to the doctor on Monday.  Mr. Logan has a small case of newborn acne on his little cheeks that started last week.  On Monday morning, we woke up and it had...

My baby is a zombie.

Logan is a vocal little guy.  He's always grunting, squealing, and making strange noises.  And when he nurses... he sounds like a zombie.  We joke that instead of saying "BRAINS!" like most zombies, he's crying out "BOOBS!".  Either way, he's the cutest zombie baby...

Life with a baby: Week three

Life with a baby: Week three

Week three is officially over.  It was a tough week--Chris started back to work on Monday, and Mr. Logan was Mr. Grumpy Pants most of the week.  We survived Chris being back at work, barely.  It was tough not having Daddy here, but Lauren stayed for a few days to help...

Life with a baby: Week two

Well, we made it through our second week of parenthood!  This was Chris's last week at home with us, so we tried to get as much done as possible.  On Monday, Amy came over and did Logan's newborn photos.  I will post some of them once she gets finished editing them....
