Diaper Doodie

I thought I should give a cloth diaper update since I spent so much time researching cloth diaper options prior to Jude’s birth. We have been using cloth since about 3 weeks after Jude was born. I ended up with a combination of prefolds and covers and a few all-in-one diapers. I thought I would…

Bottle and Breast

Jude had his first full bottle last night. Yesterday, I pumped 3oz. of milk and stored it in the refrigerator. And last night after our dinner and a small feeding from me I handed a drowsy baby over to dad for the continuation of his meal. Joe had a little bit of difficulty holding Jude…

The Olympics of Brisco County, Jr.

So yesterday, as most of you know, the Olympics started in Beijing, so Jessica and I turned on the opening ceremony on TV after the Simpsons was over. And watched all 4 hours of it. It was kinda neat, but also it was pretty long and got kinda boring after a while. Fortunately, I was…

What a Wednesday

Yesterday Jude and I decided to get out and go to the mall… mainly to pick up a wedding gift and get some lunch. After we ate, walked around a bit and bought the wedding gift we headed to the car. The sky looked dark with rain clouds so we thought we should head home….

Jude’s First Dr Visit

So today Jude has his first trip to the doctor. We took him to a local homeopathic physician and I think it was a good experience. Jude is a perfectly healthy little boy! He’s gain a pound and grown and inch in the past 3 weeks. Apparently he’s in the 90th percentile for height and…

Cloth Starts Now

Today is the day… we started using our cloth diaper. We naturally transitioned to cloth after we ran out of the disposables we were using. We are using basic prefolds and covers. My first diaper was a prefold set inside a cover with a liner over top. Now I’m trying a prefold pinned with a…

What’s in a name?

As many of you know Joe and I decided to keep Lil Lieb’s name a secret until he made his earth side appearance. We put alot of thought into the names we chose. Obviously we chose Jude Aidan for a boy but most of you don’t know the girl name we chose. If Jude was…

The Sleepy Liebs

We’ve learned that you are supposed to sleep when the baby sleeps but what do you do when the baby never sleeps? For the past two nights Jude has spent 5+ straight hours awake wanting to eat. I’d feed him until he unlatches/falls asleep… thinking he was done I’d put him down and 5 minutes…
