Try this again….

I hope this works, it’s the old Kodak web page but they’ve changed things a bit…so let me know. 🙂

I love this pic, it’s going in a frame on my desk. He’s about a wk. old here.

This is of the same roll, of Logan’s first week…I think it’s a perfect pic of a new mommy. Very apt wouldn’t you say? *w*

Had a busy weekend here. On Sat. the band played at a block party at the sound man’s house. It was outside and wouldn’t you know the weather took a turn for the worse and was it COLD! However it was supposed to snow, and it didn’t so I’m glad for that anyway. It was down around 35 tho’ with a cold wind. BRRRR. The guys were inside the garage, w/ heaters so they could play…the rest of us were outside and spent alot of time spent around a fire. It was so much fun regardless, we’d dressed warm, etc. and are Minnesotans after all. It wouldn’t have been bad except for that wind.

Sunday we spent some time winterizing the house, feels good to have that done, then spent some time over at Brie’s. Chels had spent the night there when we went to the block party.

Logan is growing like a weed. He still doesn’t like his bath, screams his little head right off until Brie’s done and he’s wrapped in a towel. The other night, he was mad, mad, mad and Brie lifted him out and laid him on his bath towel-you know those with the little hood? Well he grabbed it right away-that hood-pulled it down over his face and stopped crying immediately. We laughed so hard, it was like as long as his face was covered he was ok then and could recover from that very trumatic experience! *L* Little dumpling head. I just can’t seem to get enough of him.

Friday we took Brie and Logan shopping, Chels stayed over at a friends and Brie was in desperate need of some clothes. Hubs and I took them to a mall not far from here. Brie brought up me babysitting again, she’s worried already. But I still said no. It really pulled at my heart, I mean I questioned myself even as I said no as I could spend the entire day just holding him-yet I still don’t want to tie myself into that. I damn near said yes, couldn’t believe I didn’t actually.

Lately, well for some time now, I’ve been itching to get my brain back into action. Chels is 13 now, and I’d love to take a course or two in …in..in…ok, I haven’t decided that just yet! *w*

But I just don’t know now. For one thing, who am I going to trust with that baby? Brie would pay me also, so there’d even be some extra moola-never a bad thing. And no, it’s not guilt at all. I do not feel I SHOULD do it, that is just not it. It’s simply a matter of this head over heels love I feel for this baby.

Oh well she’s not going back to work for a while yet, these are thoughts just running through my mind right now.

Also I have to make an appt. with my med doc. Sigh. I’ve been denying this but my meds need some adjustment. My head has been playing little tricks and anxiety is taking a front seat. What a pain in the butt this damn illness is. I imagine, now turning 40 (still makes me *gulp*) my hormones are changing, thus knocking some other things around. Ever hopeful, I tried denial first, hoping that it would just ‘go away’ and it was simply nerves or something over this lst time grandma business. But no.

Could be worse, there could be NO meds to regulate it. Oy, that’s a scary thought. Guess I’ll call the doc right now. *w*

I so hope these pics showed up, I’ll check back in a bit to see…. *fingers crossed*

*sigh* they are just liddle x’s. Your life is very full right now – get thee to the Dr. before it gets out of control. I only say that cause I love you 🙂 Hmmmm…..baby sit and earn money vs going back to school. Tough choice. Well at least either way you’ll be happy right?

*frowning* Nope, no pictures, just x-boxes. Logan sounds truly adorable and you sound ever the loving, doting grandma. It must’ve been difficult for you to say no to the babysitting, but yet at the same time, very freeing to know and articulate that it’s time for you and your things now. Way to go! Yipes on the meds… I have to do the same thing soon. Get us to a doc post-haste! *hugs*

No pics,honey! Damn meds. UGGH. Are you SURE you don’t wanna babysit??? 😀

Rats! No pictures!!! I have good luck with Cartogra.com, which is a Hewlet Packard photo page. Well, I have good luck when I don’t use their downloadable photo manager. It would be hard not to be the permanent babysitter – I think my sister-in-law is doing that, but I don’t know that it’s a great idea. But has to be tempting!

I still only see little x’s. Maybe it’s my computer?

RYN – I think everyone could actually see the Oz photos, except Marg, and she had caught the entry right after I’d posted one that didn’t work, and before I fixed it. So she was seeing five or so pictures of the balloon and nothing else!

I’m baaaack 🙂 try putting qotation marks before http and after jpg 🙂

OOooohhhhh, he’s so cute!!!! Can I have him? 😉

twisted whiskers

He is soooo cute!!! Keep up with the pics! I think you’re doing the right thing to have some time for yourself to explore life! Have you called the dr? thanks for everything… xoxo

He’s adorable!! First an AWOL diarist returns, now I can see the photos of Logan… I swear, my day’s getting better and better! *lol* It seems so long ago that Connor was that size… *sigh* Hope the doc was able to fix the meds for ya!

He is just so gorgeous! I think I would have a dilemma with the babysitting thing too. Presumably you could do both – looking after Logan & studying but I imagine you mean you want to get out of the house & do something plus it is a tie certainly. At least you have some time to think about it. (Which probably makes it worse!)

awwww…what a sweetie he is! precious little thing! I don’t know, M, I’d have a hard time saying no to the babysitting. You know what’s best for you. Definitely would be change for you but I don’t know…tough decision. ryn: Aggie — is a Texas Aggie, from Texas A&M University – they’re mascot is an Aggie.

NOW I see them! Those are great – I especially like the one with Brie collapsed – very appropriate!

The pictures are there and are they wonderful, what a little doll! I upload to snapfish. MSA is the one to ask. He knows all about that kind of stuff. Hope you are feeling better soon. I love the picture of Brie and Logan.

I see em, I see em, I see em!! YAY! Great pics. Mommy looks pretty pooped. To be expected, I’m sure. BTW, what’s up with Carl? No puppy yet. Wasn’t able to make it yesterday. Maybe tomorrow.

Logan is an absolutely beautiful baby. The pic of Brie and Logan is priceless. Thanks for letting me know the pics were up now. ryn: I am better now – thanks for checking on me. xoxoxo…..

*LOL* Looks like a picture I have of myself when Thaddeus was about the same age… 🙂 About the bath… Thaddeus used to scream when he had a bath until I realized I was making the water too cold, about 90 degrees. I now try to make it about 99 to 100 degrees. Now he LOVES his bath!
