Loges goes to the doc on Monday to have the Doc HOPEFULLY say he can stop wearing that blasted harness for GOODSIES!  We LOVE this doctor.  Logie loves him, too, and wanted to tell him so.

This was created by The New Ali.  See, The Old Ali Googled "personalized onesies" and was going to have one made and overnighted at the cost of around $50 (The Old Ali also waits until the last minute and usually pays about 4 times what the item actually costs just for shipping).  The New Should-Be-Crafty-Since-She-Is-A-Stay-At-Home-Mom-About-To-Buy-A-House-Well-Her-Husband-Is-Actually-Buying-The-House-But-A-Penny-Saved-Is-A-Penny-Earned-Right? Ali decided she could make one herself.  It only took like 5 days what with having an infant and all, but it cost less than $10 when all was said and done.  And you can kind of see the shiny stuff where it was ironed on which would NOT FLY with The Old Ali, but WHOTHEHELLCARESINTHEENDREALLY.

In other, loser mom news....

Have you guys ever seen that scene in Baby Boom, when Diane Keaton is at the park talking to other mommies and realizes how "behind" her baby is?  It's here, at minute 4:22.  Well, OBVS Logie isn't BEHIND, but I had a moment similar to that yesterday.  A neighbor invited us to meet her and her new baby at the pool, a baby who is half Logie's age.  Well, Logie's mom is totally by-the-book, so to speak, so Loges hasn't really seen more than 5 minutes of sunlight in the hot Texas summer, let ALONE go to the pool.  He doesn't even have a bathing suit!  So we truck out there with a big ass hat and sunglasses and just a onesie to see tons of little babies even younger than Logie just swimming around like nobody's business.  Fast forward 20 minutes or so ["HE DOESN'T HAVE A BATHING SUIT???"] and I started feeling bad for the little lamb.  Is he destined to be the kid who isn't allowed to go on the amusement park field trip because his mother is too afraid of him falling off a ride?  Or the kid who at the 12 year old's birthday party pipes up when they put on an R-rated movie?? ["come on guys, we don't want to get in TROUBLE!!!!"]  Shit. 

So, needless to say we're having a pool party on Sunday.
