Two Whole Weeks!

Aunt Talley has returned home, and passed the caretaking torch to Aunt Kathi... with a brief interlude of Aunt Lorena and GrampaTarnay in between. The tot is now two weeks old and has already had five sleep-over visitors. He's so popular! However, the neighbors have started making offers on the ever rotating array of cars in the lot. Sold! To the highest bidder!

Speaking of which! Sadly, we have sold Zippy Car. It is with a heavy heart that we let him go, but he has now been replaced by yet another hybrid, a Prius, that will actually fit a baby seat in the back and perhaps even another passenger! I do have to mention that Zippy has gone to family members, so we still have visiting rights to ease the sting a bit. So welcome to the family Priscilla! Of whom I will post a pic as soon as I remember to actually take one.

And speaking of pictures... We have moved into the slightly scary realm of the cloth diapers, they are still a bit large on The Spud, making him look like a colorful pear with legs, or a teeninsy sumo wrestler. But a cute pear/wrestler! And I have to say they do work quite well, I think we've had less leaks since the Big Switch. (Except for that one huge poop blowout, but sadly I didn't get a picture for you!)And Poppa has stepped up to the plate and become diaper launderer extraordinare, getting just the right temperature, water level and cycle all sussed out. What a stud.

And now for some random cute...


Sleep tight kiddies! Since you know we aren't! Ha ha ha, heh. Oh and PS, we had our first visit to the Pediatrician and the tot has gained around 6 ounces since birth, getting close to that 8 lb mark!

I think it would be great if jackson actually gained all the weight that the Goodely and i hope to lose on the S.S. Weight Watchers. At least we would know we were hanging on to it for a good reason!
