A few fun things this week!

After getting some zofran prescribed to me I managed to feel human enough to allow myself out of the house a bit this week! I still feel like someone beat the crapola out of me but at least I'm not wanting to chunk my food up in the process so YAY! Hurry up 1st trimester! What 3-4 more weeks? Like morning sickness really leaves at 13 weeks! One can only hope

ANYHOW, Daddy made the last minute LOVELY decision of going to the Rangers game last week. It was oh, I'd say about 180 degrees outside and we had great seats! Yeah RIGHT IN THE SUN. 1st row to the SUN seriously. So until the sun sat behind the stadium we all fried like bacon. Well I fried like bacon, my kids were blessed apparently with the ability to not fry. Anyhow I think I've blogged about the game (did I mention in that one that it was hot) So here are the pics!

Look at this poor baby!! Dont worry he didnt burn, he just turns rather red when he's hot :) And he'd flippin TAN anyhow! (i'm so jealous!)



Andrew and Daddy watching the game, Landon wondering why the fireworks arent going off anymore?


OK is it time to go yet?




Today, against my better judgement since yesterday I had some spotting, but I feel like it's nothing really, we took the kids to the water park. I'm glad I did, sitting in the water felt sooo good and Brad pretty much handled on the boys so I just kind of relaxed :) The boys had A BLAST, even Landon was trying to swim! I did not fry, I brought sunblock. The boys are starting to get a tan this year, watchout---someone will think I stole them!

Oh and kind of funny, when we got there I noticed this little girl---maybe about Andrew's age or older, had her swimsuit off and I'm watching her like that is weird. Suddenly she's wiping her butt and putting her POOP on the side of that big water slide thing!!! OMG! FREAK OUT! LOL Anyhow, they shut down that part of the pool for AN HR while they sanitized it. I was like "Andrew, do not open your mouth!" GAG GAG GAG

My big boy lounging with his mama eatting some snacks :)



What WOULD have been a decent pic, had someone's fat finger (and not mine) not found it's way towards the lens changing the focus to said finger



Dont let him fool you, he ran around there like a wild man!



Andrew, in a rare non blurry moment--he was all over the place!



The boys playing



LUVS for daddy! :)

I'm still here!

Seriously nothing exciting to post about, I can barely move around I'm so tired and sick all the time so far so I'm REALLY hoping this passes soon!
Last night we took the boys to the rangers game, but I cant find the card reader for me SD card so the pics, they remain on the camera LOL It was SO SO HOT and my lovely DH bought tickets that were like directly in the sun until it set. It was awful miserable for about 1 1/2 hrs. Landon amazingly LOVED it...loved the cheering and the fireworks. Andrew was a BUTT, seriously the whole time A BUTT. We left about the 7th inning. Oh well LESSON LEARNED!!
Tonight we are going to the water park, though the way Andrew is acting I'm not sure he should be able to go. I dunno what his deal is lately but he's been quite the TERROR!

Anyhow here's some pics from the past couple of weeks!


Here's our little bean, at 6 weeks (measuring 5 weeks 5 days) and we were shocked to already see a heartbeat!! What a little trooper!



Landon pimping his purple growbaby diaper! I REALLY like these, we need to get some more! I wish they werent sooooo small on him though


Oh and velcro is not our friend, we just take off the dipes!


Some custom pants I finished a few weeks ago


And some shorties for Landon, though I'm not sure I like them that much--the yarn is REALLY thin---they still need a drawstring. I have about 3 pair of shorts that need drawstrings still. I am so lazy!




This someday will be a newborn stocking cap w/ a tassle on the end. But I cannot find my double pointed needles ANYWHERE to finish it!


And a soaker for Rachael!

The post about Cloth diapering.

We've been cloth diapering for a while now, since Andrew was 15 months old. I was SO skeptical when I first started. Honestly I dreaded it, but Andrew had severe reactions to a lot of disposable type diapers so I felt like I had to do SOMETHING to make it better! It only took about 10 seconds with my brand new squishy fuzzi bunz, bumgenious and GADS diapers to realize that I'm going to LOVE this!! It makes diapering FUN!

Here's some of my fav things about cloth diapering in no particular order:

1. FUN to shop for!
2. Saves the earth!
3. There's no running out at midnight b/c you ran out of dipes!
4. Fun to shop for! LOL
5. Better for their skin
6. Apparently disposables have been linked to many other healthy issues, and not just skin issues--reproductive issues also!
7. Fun to shop for!


Well there's a new dipe I've been eyeing that I want to try. We've tried a LOT but this one seems pretty easy for diapering on the go or quick diapering at home! Much like a disposable if you arent used to cloth diapering! It's the GroBaby diaper! I'm a sucker for a one size dipes, and I've never seen these until just recently! Check them out!
