3 month pictures





So I haven't gotten to do any editing of these pictures but here ya go... your weekly dose of cuteness!

Sleep or lack there of

Okay so apprently my little man is going through his 4 month growth spurt a couple of weeks early! We went to the doctor last week Thursday for an ear infection and it cleared up really quickly with a dose of antibiotics. Problem is he just kept crying even though his ears were clear. I finally figured out he just wants to eat at lest once an hour! Granted this has done wonders for my supply which I am very grateful for but getting about 8 hours of sleep total in a 48 hour period does not work for me! Landyn hasn't had a bottle of formula or juice since Monday, which to some might seem like no big deal but to a mom who has even tried prescription medicine to get my supply up, which I had a very very bad reaction too, this is the best thing that can happen! Landyn is back to being a normal pooper so no more suppositories in this house!!! I will post updated pictures very soon!

Not Me! Monday

Okay so it's been a week since I posted but it's been a busy one... well here goes!

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week!

I did not visit a Coach Outlet yesterday and spend $142 on a purse and wallet. Nope not me! I would never spend our hard earned money on something as unimportant as a purse!

I did not spend oodles of money this weekend eating out with my husband while leaving Landyn with my mom... nope not me! (We plan on doing more of this so get ready for more babysitting mom!)

I did not put my son in a swim diaper and stick his feet in cold water just to see his face and get pictures. Nope not me!

Instead of cleaning my house and doing laundry I'm not sitting here writing this post. nope not me!

Again like last week, I am not sitting at my computer writing this blog while my son cries in the swing... nope not me!

I so did not finish the last 5 cookies tonight after eating 2 rice cakes and some ranch oyster crackers... nope not me!

I did not go out and buy a bag of Huggies diapers at Wal-Mart last night because I didn't want to use the stupid Luv's diapers I had in the diaper bag. Nope not me!

I did not bring my laptop with me on vacation to a place that had 3 indoor waterparks as well as an arcade, a indoor play area, an indoor minigolf, oodles of restaurants, and some amazing hotel rooms just so I could keep up with facebook and all the blogs I follow. Nope not me!

I did not buy Landyn a $14 outfit at the Gap when he already has about 30 outfits he has yet to wear that probably don't fit because he NEEDED it! Nope not me!

okay there are lots more things I did not do this weekend but I have to go tend to the beaner...

My very first Not Me! Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.


I so did not sit down in the middle of American (appliance store), pull my shirt up and nurse my son in their glider rockers after seeing they had a chair in the bathroom for this very reason! nope not me! and for sure I wouldn't have done it twice in one week!


I did not turn around on the lake this weekend while 4 wheeling to see my husband on the ground and the tires to his upside down 4 wheeler spinning and say, "I hope you don't think this gets out of getting up with the baby tonight!" all before asking him if he's okay... nope not me!


Today when I opened a package from Thristies and so did not put the new diaper cover on over Landyn's sleeper, just to see how it looked. Nope not me!


I did not go to Sam's Club just to pick up a box of Swedish Fish and a box of Laffy Taffys, nope not me!


I also did not bonk Landyn in the head with the toy bar on his bouncer while trying to take it off and completely freak out. I most certainly did not call my mom and make her leave dinner and come over and call Ryan at work and make him leave to. Not me, I would never do such a thing!


And lastly I am not sitting on my couch eating a Laffy Taffy and listening to my son scream his pretty little head off in the swing because he's tired. Nope. Not Me!

Lots of Pictures

I'm just going to post a bunch of new pictures of my little bean! Enjoy!I LOVE this smile!!!He totally hated the hat... getting ready for the melt down! Below is his first time in his bumbo chair... yup he's on top of the dog crate! haha oh well i just stuck him in there real quick for this picture... he needs a little more time before he can be in for more than 30 seconds!
Tummy time in his room... yup he usually cries but we keep trying! He does it with Daddy most mornings and does great! He just doesn't like his momma!He is always sticking his tounge out at me! Probably because I laugh and snap a pic everytime!

First Smiles and 10 week pics!

Well it finally happened, Landyn let out a huge full face smile...at the dog!!!! At least I got it on camera! I'll post it at the end. On the 6th I took Landyn in for his 2 month check-up and he was 12pounds 2oz and 23 1/2 inches long. He's a big boy! Hopefully soon we will start sleeping more and eating more at a time! Landyn is a snacker! It's funny because when we are out and about and people ask me if he is a good baby my answer is usually no! It catches most people by surpise because a normal mother would just say yes and go on with it but I'm not going to lie to people, he's a pretty fussy baby that really likes his mama! Not that I mind that of course but sometimes I would like a break and for Landyn to let his daddy take care of him! We were all excited to finally transition him to his crib and get him out of our bed... but 2 weeks later his crib was recalled so Landyn is back to sleeping with us! yah!! Although it does make night nursing soo much easier! I can just roll over, latch him on and go back to sleep! I usually wake up an hour or so later and he's sound asleep next to me! Since for some reason this is not letting me make more paragraphs I'm going to do some picture overloading! Here are some of my favorites from the last week or so!
Here is Landyn's big smile at Tucker! I'm so jealous!!
I have yet to figure out what's he's doing with his mouth but I love his eyes in this one!
Standing up on Daddy's belly, he loves to stand up and then squat... like he's jumping!

Crazy Holidays

Well since it's been forever since I posted my first blog I figure I should probably post again, haha it's easier said than done while having a baby attached to you nursing all day!! Christmas was crazy as always. It's harder to please everyone once you get married and even harder when you have a baby! Everyone wants to see my little monkey and spend time with him which I understand but sometimes I just want to hold my own baby and when he's crying PLEASE GIVE HIM BACK TO ME!!! grr.. okay now that I'm done with my Christmas frustrations, it was really nice to have everyone be so generous with their gifts for Landyn and the two of us. My parents of course went all out and got him some super cute toys and a copy of the same book they read to me when I was little so that I could start reading it to Landyn, (haven't gotten that far yet but there is always another day!) Ryans family also got stuff for Landyn, even his aunts did! I am so thankful that everyone thought of him! At my parents Tucker even had something in his stocking from Santa, a new bone and a new rope! Thanks Santa!!

On New Years Eve we took Landyn to his first Green Bay Gamblers Game (local hockey team) and he was soo good there! The Gambler's won 6 to 4 and we had a great time there with my parents (thanks mom and dad for taking us!!) The best part of the whole thing though was the fact that Landyn slept from 10-3 and 4-8!!! thats the best night we've ever had and I'm just waiting for it to happen again... didn't happen last night. Maybe soon my son will learn to sleep!! (haha I doubt it, I could never be that lucky!)

Here's some recent pics of the little man who turned 8 weeks on tuesday!!



Yesterday in his supercute baby Gap overalls! Which I'm glad I dug out because they are not going to fit him much longer!























If you can't quite read his shirt it says "I don't need misletoe... to get kisses"









Landyn and I at my parents on Christmas morning after church.
