New Crib!

Well,  this has been a busy weekend!

We went to the doctor for our 28-week checkup and glucose test. That is one stiff drink! 

Otherwise everything was A-OK and we are due back in two weeks. 

We got our new crib and dresser/changing table. We have not built the table yet, but when we do we'll add that photo too. Here is our crib! 

We got it from IKEA and we really like it. What we like most is that it does not stand too tall. Which is good because we don't either. And I don't have as far to lean over the crib-rail so my back will thank me too. It also becomes a toddler bed, with the top half and sides taken off. So that's handy.

If you think you may be confused because  the pictures of the nursery were green and blue you are not crazy. We have the crib in our room for now. Not only because the nursery is where Mom C. will be sleeping when baby comes, but also because the crib is doubling as our bassinet. And with it here, it is only a step or two from my side of the bed. 

And, yes, that is foil on the mattress. We are trying various methods to dissuade the cats from sleeping IN the crib. So far so good. Seamus likes to be under the crib, but no one has been caught sleeping in the crib.

  1. I love that your baby will be able to see your picture hanging there!

    Great idea to keep baby in your room for a while. It just makes everything easier.

    Amd I'm glad that Pat will be there to help you guys out and to give that extra-special Gramma kind of love to your little one. I'm excited for all of you!

  2. We are glad Grandma Pat will be here too. Especially since my mom has to try to work out time off for two grandchildren! (At least my brother and I both live in Littleton)

    We are all excited! Thanks for keeping in touch!

April and May....Boy am I behind!

All Smiles....Look What I Can Reach! Cruisin' Another Type of Crusin' Wow, the Spring got away from me, as you can tell by the long time between posts! We have not felt like we had a lot going on, but I guess we have! Jack is doing great, and his potty training is pretty much finished (as much as it can be for a 3 year old I guess).  We visited a few Pre-Schools and finally decided on one, and luckily they had room for us! It is really hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Jack is going to start school - even if it's only two mornings a week! He also got his first bicycle (Lightning McQueen, of course) and he is learning the ropes of riding it. Our neighborhood has a lot of hills so he kind of prefers riding at the State Park where the road is a bit less up and down.  Actually, all three of us got new bicycles and we hope to start to ride them as a family once Logan is old enough to wear a helmet and ride in the pull-behind.

New Ride!

Well, it's no Mustang, but it is black! What we got was a 2009 Pontiac Vibe. At any rate, we both like it. It was a reasonable price for a smaller sized family-with-lots-of-stuff car. It served the purpose of "ease of child seat access" and "can load many groceries plus a dog" into the back.  (You should have seen us try to get the rocking chair into the Mustang.)  It also serves the gas economy purpose (31/28 advertised) and was not a big SUV, or a minivan. I have never been fond of driving huge cars or trucks! It looks like a five door hatchback to us, but I guess it is technically listed as a "wagon." Some things go full circle, eh Mom?  Maybe a bit cooler than the Corona Wagon we drove in Texas, or whatever it was called.  Sorry the photo isn't super great, it's raining and cold so I pretty much didn't want to go out of the garage.  There are some more photos on our Flickr account (see link to right "other photos...")   It act...

4th of July and Other Buzz News

Greetings to all! I have finally had time to upload some more photos for Flickr and the blog and can keep you up to date on the Buzz around our water cooler, so to speak. :-) We've had a busy 2 months! Nonie and Papa Sudar came to visit for a few weeks at the end of June and through the 4th of July. We all had a good time. We spent a few days down in Walsenburg with most of the Tressells which Jack really enjoyed. And we really enjoyed the small break from constantly watching Jack! Thanks everyone!! Catch Papa! Bubbles in Walsenburg Cousins Making Cookies! Since we've been back we have been working on getting all the stuff in our garage either back into the basement, into the trash, or ready for donation. Our goal is simple: both cars inside by winter. Hopefully we can make it happen! So far things are going pretty well with Baby Buzz. We went to the doctor's last week for an ultrasound because I was measuring small (just like last time). This time I guess Buzz is a li...
