But this one is for solely selfish reasons. I want to win this contest:

Oh, Logan...

So now that I have this job (details to come, I promise) that requires me to get up at 6:00 am to be there by 7:00, I got to bed fairly early. Early for me, anyways. And last night at about 10:15, I was exhausted. Logan had been in bed since 9 and Kaylee had just fallen asleep nursing, so I took her upstairs and put her in her crib. The second her little head touched the mattress, however, she woke up screaming. Now like I said, I was exhausted so I decided to just bring her to bed with me and figured Zac could move her when he got home. Well, that worked out very nicely. K cried for about two minutes in our bed but fell right asleep, so I did, too. And I slept great until Zac got home around 11 and came upstairs where this conversation ensued:

Zac: Honey, I'm sorry to wake you up, but I had a question about Logan.
Me: Why what's wrong?
Zac: Nothing, but did you put him to bed?
Me: Of course I put him to bed. Just after Grey's Anatomy.
Zac: Oh ok. Because he is downstairs sitting on the couch, watching TV, and eating a bag of Doritos. But I'll take care of it.
Me: [rolls over and falls back asleep]

Oh, Logan.

Brother And Sister...

Apparently I goofed and did something wrong so I'm re-posting all of the collages I made. Here's the one of K and Logan being so cute together over the last 2 months. Scroll down for the other ones!

So For Christmas I Got A New Digital Camera...

And though I have been taking pictures like crazy, I haven't uploaded any of them. Until now. My mother-in-law was feeling uber-generous toward me this Christmas and got me a Canon PowerShot SD780 IS. It's small enough to fit in my pocket and I pretty much have it on-hand all the time. And despite it's tiny size, it's got amazing resolution..12.1 mega pixels. Waaaaayyy better than my cell phone camera :-)

So be prepared for an over-load of collages and favorite pictures I have taken over the last two months...scroll down to see them all!!!

Brother And Sister...

I feel so blessed that my kids seem to love each other so much. Having been an only child my whole life, I wasn't sure what to really expect when it came down to my kids and their sibling-y relationships. But I can honestly say that these two just adore each other. Whenever Logan walks into the room, Kaylee watches him intently. Until he makes her laugh. Then they just keep bouncing off each other and will laugh for like 20 minutes. And whenever K wakes up from a nap, Logan is the first one by the crib, ready to get her out and play. Yay for brother-sister love!!!

New Year's Eve...

New Year's Eve was really fun for us this year. Last year, we spent it moving into our townhouse. We were so exhausted that we watched the ball drop live in NYC at 10:00 and went to bed. This year, however, was different. We went bowling! It was Logan's first time and he had a blast:






K pretty much just chilled in her car seat, but she seemed to have fun, too:



And then the night was topped off with a bottle of Martinelli's. And since K was up, we shared. (Not really...but she sure wanted some!)

Just For Future Reference...

Kaylee started rolling over from back-to-front today.

4 Years Ago We Were Doing This...

...and I'm eternally grateful that we did!!!

Dear Readers...

Sorry I haven't posted. I'm not in the mood, I'm too tired, I have other things to do...blah blah blah. And upon further inspection, I have come to the conclusion that I despise Christmas and I don't wish to bring my readers down with my anti-holiday attitude at this current time.

So to all of you proponents of Christmas for whatever reason, Bah Humbug.

Besides, Christ was born in April.

Google it.

Dear Aunt Bethany...

Dear Aunt Bethany,

We sure love you. And we feel like we have to apologize because our mom is a super-slacker. We know she promised you that she would update our Christmas/Hanukkah wish lists online, but she hasn't. So we decided to do a blog post in her behalf. We have to start out by saying that we really don't need anything. But we know your retort to that would be somewhere along the lines of "Well what kind of favorite non-aunt aunt would I be if I didn't get you Christmas/Hanukkah gifts?" and we, as small children, appreciate that. So, here's the deal: Books are always good. Mom loves for us to have educational toys. Logan is a fan of drawing and artsy-things (but not finger-painting or anything else that gets his hands messy). Animated movies are nothing to sneeze at. Logan wears 3T with size 6-7 shoes and Kaylee is fitting well into the 6 month size clothes. And having you come visit us for a few days would also be a ton of fun. So there are some ideas. We aren't picky. Hope it helps. We love you SOOOO much!!!

Love always,

Logan and Kaylee
