Logie's Tunnel

Logan's Billboard: Update

It was a hit!

aw mom, I sure am cute.

who's THAT handsome devil!?

It almost ended up being a total disaster because there was one little part on the top that I just HAD to mess with because it didn't look even.  It was taunting me.  So I started cutting.  And Xacto-knifing.  And cutting some more.  It started looking like total shit so I ended up at Michael's framing counter to have them fix it with their big cutting machines.  For the bargain price of ZERO DOLLAHS!  woot woot!

don't do this if you decide to make a billboard of your child...
this free hand cutting business.

One more tip........

once you are done, don't leave the hammer in the crib for your husband
to find when he is putting your baby down for his afternoon nap.
BAD MOM ALERT!

Logan's Billboard

I'm sure you all have seen this floating around the internet crack den Pinterest -- the "how to make a giant picture for cheap."  

WELL, AUSTIN ALI DECIDED TO GIVE IT A WHIRL.  I totally did it THIS MORNING.  And Logan is still napping.  That's how easy it was.  OK fine, Willis put Logie down for his nap while I was at Staples because he could tell I had a bee in my bonnet, but you get the drift.

Wanna see how it turned out?  Sure you do.  I'd give it a B-.  Only because I f'd up a few things.

I will just tell the story in pictures because I'm too tired to type.  Oh, and one thing I changed about the process was buying a black board so you don't have to involve paint.  Lady, THEY MAKE BLACK BOARDS FOR A REASON.   

Jessica coined it "Logan's Billboard."
Please see the flips to your left to truly understand the mammoth scale.

Sox is so annoying

cutting

still annoying.....

this is a recreation of what happened in the garage because I was too
worried about getting asphyxiated to stick around to take pics

done.  no, it is not correctly lined up on the board.
it's like 1/2 an inch off longways.  whatevs, I'm over it.
and it's not the highest quality item out there, but for $6!?
I'll take it.

I'll post the FINAL FINAL version hanging over The Dictator's  Logan's crib when he gets up.  Because he's still sleeping.

Another battle

So, there have been attempted break-ins in our 'hood.  Like, several.  And I'm kind of surprised by it.  I'm not saying that we live in the most expensive neighborhood in Austin, but we certainly don't live in the ghetto.  So Mama's scared.

So, I decided that I was going to take measures into my own hands.

omg how ghetto is our back door?  the previous owners gave us
$ to replace it in the P&S at closing, but we decided
to spend it on something else.
But I'm not sure what.  

Pops said that my note should be less polite, but I explained to him that I was being sarcastic with the "thanks."  But then he said that burglars can't understand sarcasm.

I DO know that they haven't been prowling lately, because someone who shall remain nameless [::cough cough WILLIS cough cough::] left the ipad outside like all night the other night, and it was still there.
Anyway, Happy Monday!  WAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH suckkkaaaaahs!

"What are you looking at?"

Did you know I have a baby?

Here's a video of my baby, Logan, in case you've never seen a picture or video of him since I feel like I never really talk about him much.

A Funeral

Austin Ali is in mourning today.

I got some news last night from one of my dear, bestie friends (Lisa) that we are now without an important member of our group back home.

that's Lisa.  and 1/2 of Kari.  Oh and B. 

It's very sad.  So I'll just go ahead and just say it.

The one who is no longer with us... is Lisa's appendix.

this is a picture of Lisa's appendix.

Let's all unite while we pay our respects.

it was totally enlarged so it had to have an extra big casket.
