As you can see from the picture everyone wants a piece of mommy. Anthony breastfeeds, Madeline wants to cuddle with me every time he nurses, and Lucy wants to sit on top of me too. I am using David’s computer in that picture (and right now) because mine is still broken. I really just want [...]

Dead
So my computer has officially kicked the bucket, thus my lack of blogging over the past few days. I will spare you the boring details, but to sum it up I can not even turn my computer on. So I am on David’s computer. I was able to peel him away from his Fantasy Football [...]

My Birth Story
I woke up at 7:00am, and had to pee (imagine that). I didn’t want to get out of bed since I knew I only had about 20 minutes before Madeline was going to wake up, but I decided to just get up and do it. I sat down on the toilet and immediately heard myself peeing…except [...]

First Bath
Okay, it wasn’t technically his first bath, but his umbilical cord fell off yesterday so we were able to “submerge” him instead of giving him sponge baths. So he got his first bath today. I’ve also included some other pictures for your viewing pleasure. I’ve been working on a long post but have been interrupted [...]

Truth from a Toddler
I just had this conversation with Madeline…
(I’m on the phone with my mom when Madeline and David came into the house after riding her tricycle)
Madeline: Mommy eat dinner
Me: Are you hungry, Madeline?
Madeline: Mommy buy dinner
Ummm, yeah, not “mommy make dinner” no she definitely said buy. My mom heard her say that and we had a [...]

One of These Things is Not Like the Other
Figure it out yet?
David and I figure if we ever get behind on Anthony’s laundry we can just raid the toy box and use some doll clothes on him. I wanted to put one of the outfits on him to amuse myself, but opted against it since changing clothes makes him pretty upset and I [...]

Some Pictures
We are home from the hospital. We came home yesterday morning. We had a pretty rough night last night. Anthony was wanting to eat every 1.5 hours and after he ate he would fuss and cry until it was time for his next feeding. David slept while I nursed Anthony, and I slept while David [...]

Namesake
I keep forgetting to post important stuff, like how we came up with Anthony’s name. Anthony is the name of David’s grandfather who passed away a number of years ago. John is the name of my grandfather, and as you can see from the picture, he is still very much alive. We were so happy [...]

Introducing Anthony John
After I got done posting last night and I was laying in bed trying to fall asleep, I realized I had forgotten to include our little guy’s name in my post. So, there you have it, Anthony John.
I think I maybe got about 2-3 hours of sleep last night. I had so much adrenaline pumping [...]
