First First: Birthday Time!

Update: Just got back from the doctor's office and everything is A-OK. Here are his stats, because I know at least two folks (Grandma and Nonie) are interested. Height 30" Weight 20# 12 oz Head Circumference 49 cm

Ha! I actually am posting this in a timely manner! It's a miracle. Well this weekend we had some fun celebrating our first First of August 2012 - Logan "Baby Buzz" turning 1. Despite Scott having to work on Saturday (Logan's actual birthday) we had a fun weekend.

Saturday afternoon when Scott came home we had our 'family party' with just the four of us. It was a fun time. Logan really enjoyed the puzzle he got from Papa and Nonie Sudar!

Logan Tries the Animal Puzzle

Sunday was Logan's delayed Birthday Party which was a lot of fun. This year's theme was Little Golden Books. We have given both boys a bookshelf for their 1st birthday so it only seemed fitting. Despite how hard it was to actually write with icing, the cake did turn out pretty much looking like a Little Golden Book - with the colors available to me at the store. Jack helped with the sprinkles. Lots of sprinkles.

 We had a good time and were joined by Grandma and Grandpa, Uncle John, and cousins Jim and Carla Tressell. It was fun to catch up with everyone. Jack enjoyed having so many people to hit a balloon at, and Logan warmed up to the visitors very quickly. Even our shy cat Pocatello came out to join the fun.

Party goers
 Logan sure enjoyed his birthday cake. He tried to shove the whole piece in his mouth all at once. Of course, it ended up all over everywhere. He spent some time licking the plate, and then decided to try to use it as a jaunty cap.

Ready for Fashion Week Baby Style
What a fun day. I cannot believe a whole year has already gone by. It seems like only yesterday that we got to meet Logan for the first time. Then sometimes it feels like there was never a time he wasn't here! Funny how that works. We are so happy for Baby Buzz and can't wait to see how he grows over the next 12 months.

Until next time...

    Is that plate stuck to his head?

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...

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...

I'm Gonna Have To Get a Female Cat. . .

Today was our 20 week ultrasound and appointment! Everything is going really well. Baby looks to be about 9 oz in weight and has a good heartbeat of about 132 bpm. But enough stalling! It appears I remain outnumbered in our home now - 3 boys to 1 girl (5:1 if you count our feline friends!). That's right folks, another boy! How many of you were right??? We were able to get a nice "up from the bottom" shot that confirmed the gender. We also took a nice shot of his foot, and his profile. Actually, I think I was in there for 45 minutes and she took about 50 shots of various organs and body parts. We got the two thumb's up from the doctor that he's looking great. I also got some medicine to try if my nausea continues to be a burden. Yes, just today I was feeling sick again. *sigh* Just for comparison I looked up some of the posts from this time with Jack: Nov 2008 Some things are the same: I still can't eat fruit without feeling sick, and I'm dropping thing...
