Babywaker

Posted on September 26, 2011 by BrassyDel

On occasion, Tank’s behaviour will earn him an entire litany of insulting names. As is customary, the worst name comes last: Baby-waker. Pixie has always been a poor sleeper. She has difficulty falling asleep and wakes at the smallest sounds and minor interruptions. She sleeps very lightly, just like her father. She did not sleep through the night until 11…

Where Are They Now?

Posted on September 22, 2011 by BrassyDel

Apparently, it is now Autumn. And almost October. Just yesterday? The middle of August. I have no idea where those last few weeks went. Somewhere in there, Chappy got bigger. Heck, even Pixie has grown a little (no, I’m sure she has! Maybe?). Chappy started crawling, then proceeded swiftly to sitting up by himself, and then instantly to pulling himself…

Five Months

Posted on September 13, 2011 by BrassyDel

I can’t believe Chappy is already five months old! Why, just earlier this week the gal cutting my fabulous hair asked me when my baby was due. Yeah. I think I have a date with a Jillian Michaels DVD soon. You know, as soon as I can get these kids to sleep on a schedule conducive to, uh, anything at…

He Doesn’t Know it’s not Fall Yet

Posted on August 26, 2011 by BrassyDel

Pumpkins traditionally herald the beginning the Fall, thanks to their nature as a seasonal vegetable. They are also simply extremely awesome. While it isn’t fall yet, it is time for Chappy, aka Chappy McChappersons (or, when relevant, Poopy McPoopersons), to start trying out some solid food. And by “solid” I mean “mostly-liquid mush”. If I’d had a pumpkin on hand,…

Toes!

Posted on July 29, 2011 by BrassyDel

At a smidge under 4 months old, Chappy McChappersons here is constantly holding onto his toes. His big sis Pixie wasn’t really into that for a bit longer, so I find it funny. He’s also pretty much perpetual smiles THANK GOD. Somebody around here needs to be!

This Baby Knows How to Party: QUIETLY.

Posted on July 4, 2011 by BrassyDel

A couple weeks ago, the Hubbles and I dropped Pixie off with her Auntie and cousins and we went off to a party. In the middle of the day! All dressed up! And there was beer. Two friends of ours got married up in the mountains. Beautiful ceremony, wonderful reception, cake, and friends. And cake. We left Pixie behind because…

12 Weeks

Posted on July 1, 2011 by BrassyDel

Happy Friday! To celebrate, here’s a picture of an adorable baby boy at twelve weeks old! With some crazy-lookin’ lady! Bonus: The Hubbles is back there, too. Well, part of him. The majority of his head, anyway. Extra Bonus: IN A SUIT.

My Son ROCKS that Pink Diaper – Friday Photo

Posted on June 17, 2011 by BrassyDel

At first, I didn’t put Chappy in Pixie’s hand-me-down bright pink diaper cover. I quickly decided this was ridiculous for myriad reasons, not least of which is that lots of men these days are wearing pink. And look good doing it. Men are truly taking back pink, and not just in a bad 80’s flash back sort of way. So…

The Baby’s Crate

Posted on June 15, 2011 by BrassyDel

There’s a lot of chaos ’round here most days, so we use a playpen to prevent the squishing of newborns. See? I do occasionally put the babies down! Anyway, Pixie sleeps in the playpen when we’re out at Grandma’s, Auntie’s, the bar, a friend’s house, etc. She’s old enough that she hasn’t been sat in there otherwise for quite a…

When I say that my life is full of crap, what I really mean is that my entire schedule is consumed by poop detail. THANKS GUYS.
