black and bumbo is back

Brandon is his recalled Bumbo chair. And skull and crossbones sleep n' play because he's a bad ass. Have I ever bitched about how they don't have any baby clothes in black? They don't. I've found all of four black baby-size clothes over the last year. And I've bought them all. Black is my favorite color. But... Continue Reading →

Dr. Carter

This is what Brandon wore to the doctor's office. He is in the 99.62% on height at an astounding 28."He is in the 94.71% for weight at 18 lbs, 2 oz. We're growing a giant over here!

crib cries

Brandon has become pretty attached to us. Sometimes at night, he cries in his crib because he knows we'll come and get him and let him sleep in our bed. I know it's not recommended, but it's nice having our whole family in the bed together. I love waking up next to his sweaty little... Continue Reading →

4 months

Today Brandon is four months old. When did my baby get so big? See for yourself: Lately he has been either really happy or really pissed off. I blame it on the teething.  I can't get enough of his adorable little face. I could stare at it all day.

Brandon learns to make noise

It's official. We are a family with home videos. I know those families get a lot of shit, but back off. My child  will be able to see what he acted like when he was a baby. And I'm sure he's going to love seeing himself on the tv, seeing how much he loves himself... Continue Reading →

sleepless in omaha

Last night was my first sleepless night in a long time. Now don't get me wrong, I have been awake with this baby for certain periods every night. But for the last two months or so, he's spoiled me by eating and then falling back asleep. In 30 minutes, I'm back in bed. The days... Continue Reading →

blast from the past

Today I found my first blog post ever. It was a livejournal account that I completely forgot about and assumed closed itself down. I didn't know livejournal still existed. I thought it closed down once myspace and Facebook took over people rambling on about themselves. But this morning, I received a nice surprise in my... Continue Reading →

big ups

I think the next milestone for Brandon is sitting up. So I'm propping him up all over the place. I'm an overachiever by nature, so I want my baby to be more advanced than other kids his age. I saw a two-month old in the Bumbo at daycare and I said, "are you putting Brandon... Continue Reading →

sick psych, baths, bumbo

 This week marked a rite of passage for this new mom - taking my son to the doctor when nothing was wrong. The daycare ladies freaked me out by saying he wasn't himself lately, and he had been eating less and sleeping more. Last week he had a cough. I felt kind of ridiculous, explaining...
