Snoods

When Annie was a little puppy her Auntie Lisa made her some snoods. For those of you who are like "what the heck is a snood" it is a fabric thingy that you can put on dogs heads to hold their ears back, so they dont drag on the ground, in their food, water, etc. As you can guess, quite nice for bassets and their long ears. Well, not surprisingly Annie didnt like to wear them, but I never threw them away because they were custom made for her.

Anyway, Ian and I went to see a movie (or something) and we came home and Lisa had decided to get them back out after about 6+ years and put them on both dogs. Annie didnt mind hers but Jaska was not too happy about it. She kept trying to get it off with her paws and it would make part come down and cover 1 eye, so they were calling her a pirate all night. The doggies are just so funny sometimes :)

Random Logan

Just wanted to post some random pics of him from the past few weeks. He has been enjoying the hot weather (he loves it) and having his family around.


Look at those cheeks!!!

Doesnt he just look precious! He loves his bouncy seat and loves to snuggle up with a blanket.

The dogs were at their posts. They follow this little boy everywhere, he will be well protected his doggy friends.

Chillin in his swing in his sleeveless onesies with the awesome black socks. This outfit just cracks be up :)

Jealous much?

This is Auntie Lisa posting on behalf of the Richardson Family. I have been in Austin this week starting my new job and will be flying back to Chicago in the morning to move down there permanently! I was resting due to a serious headache this evening and Logan fell asleep on my chest. So freakin' cute! Mimi decided to take a picture and well...as you will see Annie was a bit jealous.

All of these pictures were taken within 2 minutes! She was constantly moving to stay between Mimi and Logan. What a silly girl!

Lots of Logan

I know I am not a good blogger but its tough with a baby in 1 hand, plus I just dont like to update the blog (figured I could be honest and all). Anyway here are some updates and pics of Logan.


Jaska is still his official watch dog. She follows him everywhere, always needing to be in the same room as him and if he cries she has to come and make sure he is ok. He is starting to become a little more aware of her as you can see. Here Jaska had her wish come try and was allowed to give him kisses, however, she was not allowed to kiss him on the face like she tried!!

Logan is a little spoiled and likes to be held, I mean all the time likes to be held. I dont mind it normally, in fact I love it when he falls asleep on my chest and was just chill together during the day, but sometimes I need to actually get some stuff done. Anyway, I was really hoping somebody would get us this super cute and cool swing (thinking he would like it), and his Great Grandma Manning got it for him and it arrived this week. He loves it (sometimes), right now he is swinging away and just looking around, which is great cause he has been a little cranky today.

This is his super cute bouncy seat from Grandpa Dave. We recently got batteries so now it can also vibrate. He uses this more than anything else, but the reason I love this picture is he had just gotten done eating and i put him down in the seat and turned around and he was all sprawled out, I just thought it was too cute.

He sometimes likes tummy time. Usually he likes it but sometimes he just wants nothing to do with it. This of course was not one of those times. But he always ends up all tucked up like this, isnt it cute??

I love this picture because you can see a little smile and his dimples. You only see the dimples when he smiles, I think they are hidden under his chubby cheeks, so time will tell if they become more prominent or if they go away. All I know is while they are here they are freakin adorable!

This was after his 1 month photo shoot, so I think he was done with the pictures at this point. I really want to try and get a good one of me and him but this isnt really a good one of either of us. I will keep trying, but this is it for now...

Where has the time gone!!!

i know, i know, i am a horrible blogger. i would blame the belly but considering i was never that good at keeping up with this thing, i think it wouldnt be fair and someone (most likely lisa) would point it out :)

anyway, i have a dog picture and a cow picture that i wanted to share..


annie got to eat the rest of my blue raspberry hawaiian ice over the weekend, as you can tell (when you enlarge the photo) she really enjoyed it!! it actually was worse but she was so happy and wouldnt stand still, so it took awhile for me to get the pic, and the entire time she just kept licking her lips and muzzle so a lot of the blue was gone. isnt she just the cutest thing you have ever seen!!!


so here is the cow!! this was taken last monday, so 8 days ago. tomorrow i am at 37 weeks, katherine is supposed to come over so maybe ill get an updated picture again, it just keeps growing and growing and growing!!!

so things have been super busy here, wedding season has begun, trying to get that stuff done plus all of the stuff for when im gonna be out. we are a little behind on baby stuff, still have some final stuff to buy that we will need when he comes home, trying to still pick a middle name, still need to finish painting (that should be done tomorrow) and then get all the furniture in plus get all the little stuff organized and all the clothes washed. still need to pack the hospital bag too, i suppose that is kinda important. but we are getting close and have a lot of the stuff done (which is good since we are very quickly running out of time).

well, i dont feel like typing anymore. if i finish the painting tomorrow (again, as is the plan) i will post pictures for everyone.
