I want his life!

Landon's little spoiled butt LOL He sleeps as late as he wants to, anytime he cries he gets immediately coddled, and he eats w/ his feet propped up on the table.
He's growing up so so much lately. This week he learned to climb on the couch, and scale the baby gates. I dont care what anyone says, life is not over after your child starts crawling/walking---it's when they start CLIMBING that life is over. He can pretty much get to anything now that you "put up" so he couldn't reach. AHHHHH!!!! Save me!!

He's also gotten really into telling his brother off. Which I cannot help but let him do since he's talking now, after all, he learned from his brother talking to HIM like that!
So this is what my day sounds like

Andrew: "I said NO Landon!"

Landon "NO Do!" (no Andrew) "stop that!" "go away!"

Andrew: "Excuse me, what did you say to me?"


ROFL I really cant help but laugh


Here's Landon enjoying a snack the other day, with his feet up on the table.


Check out the feet!


Silly boy



Next post will be knitting stuff!

We have a baby boy!

Ok well at least that's what we think right now! I know it's too early to be 100% certain but it looks a lot like a boy down there for now! She said boy then changed to girl when we told her we did the hokey poky 4-5 days before I ovulated. I think her original guess was correct though as I look at the pics, looks just like Landon! So more than likely more blue for our future! At least I have a TON of boy names picked out!

Here's our one good ultrasound pic! He's stretching out his little leg!

Weekend at the river

Well you could SEE the river, it's down pretty low and apparently when that happens there are lots of snakes so I decided it probably wasn't a good idea to take the boys down there.
DH's parents renewed their vows for their 40th wedding anniversary this past weekend. We went to Seguin to shop, I mean celebrate with them! It was pretty fun, Andrew had a blast getting into trouble with his cousins. Landon fell off a bed. I got bit by a spider. Tons of fun.
We did do some shopping on the way home which was pretty eventful. And I ate way too much food.

Here's some pics!

Landon and daddy, he's getting so big. And he's in the "dont look at the camera stage" now :(


Again, best I could get of them together. But shows how BIG Landon is! Again I have no idea where that kid came from. I'm convinced he was switched at birth with those blue eyes and looking nothing like his brother!


Andrew cheezed it up for me, I bribed him jibbitz for his crocs. Our new obsession LOL






My spider bite (at least I THINK that's what it is) it itches like CRAZY but it's not like a bump or a mosquito bite for sure. it itches all the way INTO my muscles so much that my neck was itching INSIDE the skin today. It's killing me! I have taken benadryl like a loon!



I did manage to get some knitting done while we were down there!

This is for the new baby, it will be pants



And some handspun yarn custom longies for a customer that are taking forever b/c they are HUGE! :)


I have some pics from the wedding to upload. I will probably post them tomorrow.

And Thursday we have an ultrasound! I'm excited to see the baby and hope everything is growing ok! :)

Updates, 4th of July, and some customs!

Not much going on here, still SICK but I hope it subsides soon! I do feel like I have a tad more energy---though that's not a good thing, this energy gave me enough to make a cake that I've eaten 1/2 of so far!

Landon got a haircut this week. It's so hot I just decided to shave it---bad decision, he looks so old :( I hate it!

Andrew learned how to hit a ball with a baseball bat this weekend! I'm impressed since *coughDHcough* no one ever works with him! He must have mommy's hand/eye coordination! LOL

4th of July was fun. We went to see the fireworks and BOTH kids loved them! Andrew kept calling it "Landon's Happy Birthday" No idea, but we kept telling him it was America's Birthday--he wasnt having that. It was all for Landon LOL
Oh and the baby in my belly grew a pee pee, he's saying it's a boy in my belly now. He's so wishy washy! LOL

Heres my 10 almost 11 week belly!


Landon's hair :(



What happens when my kids are being sweet w/ each other...


Cheeseball





The newborn hat I FINALLY finished--Landon already ripped off the tassel though--I'm going ot have to secure it in there better



My friend's soaker w/ a ruffle butt



I'm about to do some newborn pants stiched like this! I CANT WAIT! I need to finish up my customs first!

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!
