What? It's August?

Well well, I hope I actually still have an audience, LOL! It amazes me how much more time flies with two kids rather than one. Or maybe just how much more I sleep...

At any rate we actually didn't have too busy a summer.

So first order of business is adding new photos to our Flickr account. Hoping it works okay the first time today.

A lot has happened. Logan has moved from crawling (with what seems to be a family method of crawling with one knee on the ground, and one knee up ready to pounce) to cruising, and now just this week he walks between pieces of furniture and between people! WOW.


Both boys love playing with cars and trains and just paling around in general.  I write this post today knowing that I *should* make two more posts in the next week - one for Logan's first birthday (tomorrow!!) and one for Jack's first day of school. Wish me luck. Hoping to get it done before Christmas.

We had a visit (well, technically Grandma and Grandpa had a visit) at the end of June from Scott's Aunt Brenda and his cousin Andrew. It was a lot of fun. Andrew even convinced Scott to go zip-lining. I don't even know if that is a real word. Zip-lining. *shiver*. We had a lot of fun visiting with them when they weren't adventuring all over Colorado!

Jack, Andrew, and Logan. I don't think Andrew looks too nervous!

The kids both loved Aunt Brenda! (So do we)

We also had a nice visit from Nonie and Papa Sudar in July. It was good to see them again. We were able to get a lot of important things done - like the family photos their kids gave them for their Anniversary in December. See? I'm not just slow at blogging. Here's one that was cute of all of us. Robert is my brother, if that wasn't obvious. :)

Sitting: Logan, Jack, Emerson, Reese

We also had some shots taken of the boys, as we were already planning to do when Logan was about 9 months old (to compare of course). I almost made it at 11 months old!

Jack and Logan 2012 (3 and 11 months)


Jack 9 months

 Otherwise things are going OK. Scott is still at Lockheed Martin. If any of you saw the Mars landing, he did have a hand in that project. Way back in '07 or'08 he did a stress test on the heatshield. Needless to say he was pretty excited to see it worked as it was supposed to. Yay!

I'll have more later I hope so I'll sign off for now and work on uploading photos.

Until Next Time!

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...
