So three weeks in to it and this being my first week ALONE! I have a new deep respect for every mom out there! This is by far the toughest thing I have ever done and am only into it three weeks! AHHH! But seriously moms have a tough job - you have to try to figure out what this little Buddha looking guy wants by his grunts and cries. I can't even figure out what I want for myself most of the time let alone some other guy. Take today for example we have been home all day working on stuff at the house (you know dishes, laundry, dirty floors, attempting to take shower) and Logan is MISERABLE - will not stop crying and wants to nurse every 10 minutes. So after a good 2 hours of this I thought I would call Andrew just to let him know how fun my day was going and how big my headache was at this point. Thank God for husbands he just kept telling me it would be alright and to call my mom or his mom - WOW didn't think of that! next call to my mom to which she reminds me that Logan likes loud noises and to go and finally blow dry my hair. Okay at this point I will try anything - Logan loved the noise and relaxed. never would have guessed it! See how mom's know it all - again my new found respect for all moms. You are all awesome! So now I just need a travel blow dryer for Logan - the scary thing is that
I hope he does not grow up to be a hair dresser.
We took this picture last night when Logan was sleeping - i like this look much better then the red faced pissed one I
've had all day! I think me looks like Buddha in this picture!

Allie liked the vacuum, you could try that. Or, when Andrew is fussy and I have to get stuff done, I put him in my front pouch and he likes to just walk around with me and do stuff. Or, when he gets a little bigger, you could give him Nyquil. That puts them out every time!
Joni! You are joking right? I hate giving my kids medicine. They have to be really sick to get anything.
Langston was totally colicy for 12 months. Then he became a whiner. I found that the vacuum worked too. Lenny loved it... It was the only time that the house was actually clean. :)
Oh course I am kidding... I used it once on Allie when we went on a red eye flight to hawaii, but that is it. I wish there was something that would make them stop crying. Allie liked to walk up and down our stairs... good for me in that it helped burn calories... bad for me in that is was at 2am.
Wow - It's fun to hear you guys talking MOM talk!! Logan is beautiful Lauri - Congratulations!
I'm hoping to make it to the family reunion in May. I hope I get to see you and meet Logan!
