Being released into the wild

I had forgotten all of my newborn rules from when Harper was born. I was a fool not to look back at the posts from those first few weeks. You really need to do/know some things to survive life...

Things I’m sure are true:

If I wash this baby’s head, he won’t smell like baby anymore. If I take him out of his carseat in public, a ninja baby snatcher will appear and steal him from me. That his runny right eye is not...

Baby 2.0′s birth story

On March 29th at 0815, I, along with my sister in law, paid the second visit to my OB in that week. After the countless false alarms and being sent home every single appointment with a nice “you’re...

What are you going to do when you have 2 of them!?

Exactly what we are doing now, keeping them both alive! We were home on April 1st (HAHA world), to begin our REAL journey on having both a new born AND a toddler! I was excited to get Harper back...

Our birth video

We are so lucky to have such a talented family member, McKenzie, with Mckenzie Miller Films to document our special arrival! This video was so special to me because when you have a C section, you...

I got my Easter bunny!

Welcome John Tyler Eddins- just in time for Easter!!!!

Project Nursery

Welcome to our new nursery!

37.5 Week Post

I just realized I haven’t done a milestone post since back in Nam. Actually, my content level is fair to poor lately. It’s because I really don’t have anything nice to say, so I’m taking the...

The one where I post videos

I’m much too lazy to write anything worth reading these days so I decided to share some of our home videos! Harper has taken her dancing to the next level: She also figured out that monsters don’t...

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!!

Midnight shopping trip anyone?

Go ahead and put on a bra and go to the store to get a few ingredients because this stuff is amazing. By the way, I’m still pregnant. I’ve also eaten half a pan of the following recipe for...

Totally predictable post

Surprise, we are BACK at the hospital for an overnight stay! Go figure!!! My spidey senses tell me that this will be the LAST observation stay for the pregnancy until we get to meet baby boy! We...

Mechanical problems

Someone told her we were having a baby. So she left. In a hot air balloon. Because we do it big. And then she realized it didn’t really fly. So we invited her best friend to try and figure out how...

I’m too lazy to do the Harlem Shake.

Today I kept thinking about how I should do one of these videos myself…then I remembered I’m way to lazy for that crap right now, so here is someone else who did it: Also, for reference (Thank you...

_____________________15 MONTHS____________________ Dear Harper, You are now 15 months old!!! In 3 more months, you’ll be a year and a half old! That’s crazy. I felt like I needed to post on what...

Crack really is whack.

Two nights ago we went to bed. I hear sad little coughs for a long time coming from Harper’s room, it made me sad. So I go get here and decide she’s sleeping with the Mommy and the Daddy tonight!...

We survived the storm

Here’s a quick update on our last weekend: Harper and I both had “sinus infections”. What a coincidence huh? The doctors think so. My doctor already knows I’m a bajillion months pregnant, so she...

Every week…

We will see the doctor. It’s the once a week appointment time! For some reason I was looking forward to this earlier in the pregnancy. I have NO idea why. I think I’d forgotton what the last month...

Just another way to get CPS called…

The other day I was at the pharmacy buying a plethera of cold meds to nurse my slow death sinus infection. Harper has a snot face too, so even though they call whatever I have a sinus infection, I...

9 Months

the titleless post

Our baby walks. Our dog does not. He gets drug around on a leash while he’s in reverse, making me look like I abuse animals as a hobby. Then he gets a wagon ride home. He’ll learn how to walk right?

Wantings and learnings

Things I want for our daughter: To always feel like she can come to her parents for advice or help, even when she’s screwed up. For her to feel like she has a best friend in her brother. For her to...

The day I wanted to shake a grown woman.

I know I whine about being pregnant and even about being a parent in general. I can see how it would rub some people the wrong way, I really do. I feel like I keep it to a low level “I love my kid,...

Oh yea, and we got a dog.

And she hates him. JUST KIDDING- she was mad I was making her sit there for a picture! //
