Great name: Sawyer James Swensen . . . another male to carry on the Swensen name tradition!
I love that name! We thought of that for our boy (due Dec. 27), but we decided on Tate instead. Sawyer's a cutie! Congratulations and way to go on having an unmedicated birth! That's the plan for me this time around too :)

He looks like he's going to have Rick's build but Amber's hair...hmmm...it's like a combo between Amelie and Chase. He's so cute I want to kiss him.
Super cute name!

Congrats Amber! I didn't know you had the baby natural! So did I. We will have to get together and compare experiences! Very cute name. Our babies have the same middle name!

You realize the rebel on Lost is James Sawyer right?
Very cute name. it was actually on my list but Jared vetoed it because then everybody would think Lee is the first name and Sawyer is the last. BUT Swensen is definitely a last name - so you're set. He is very cute and HUGE and Rick must be beaming with football dreams.

Miss you guys!!
Good job Amber! My Mitchell was a 9 1/2 pounder, so I know what that feels like, although you're half my size. You're such a beautiful mama, and I'm so jealous you got to welcome in another sweet spirit. Good luck!

Just a little weekend get-a-way...

in P U E R T O R I C O !!! So Rick (along with his other teammates) received a reward trip from work to vacation in Puerto Rico for 4 days! Since I constitute his other half I got to cash in on the reward. So we spent a 4-day weekend get-a-way at a huge resort on the coast of Puerto Rico without the kiddos (thanks mom for flying in to care for them while we were away:). It was fantastic! We stayed at El Conquistador Resort , which was situated on a sloping hill facing the beautiful Caribbean ocean. Our room was right there in the middle (2nd floor) and our balcony opened up to a view of the blue blue sea. That little island you see out there in the distance is Palomino Island . That's where the beach was located and we had to ride the ferry out there to play in the sand and get some sun (unless we wanted to lounge around the pool, but I'm more for the authentic beach feel). Approaching Palomino Island on the ferry. Cute ain't it? We took the El Yunque Rain Forest tou...

I'm Tired

This is the theme of today. (And this picture describes perfectly how I feel.) Not only is Sawyer still waking up ever couple hours in the night, but Chase had the stomach flu last night and was throwing up big time. I know I got up with him at least 3 separate times when he had to puke. I know what you're thinking, where is Rick? Well, he hurt his back a few days ago and hasn't been able to get around very well, let alone bend over a puking child, so he wasn't able to help. I seriously felt like I was going between nursing baby and puking child all night long. And then Rick wakes up at 5:30 to get ready for school just after I got the baby to sleep and wakes him up! Ahhh! I didn't know whether to scream or just start crying. So he takes Sawyer upstairs and puts him in the swing (which always puts him out) and then Chase comes and crawls in bed with me and then Amelie wakes up because she can hear movement in the house and is upset that Chase isn't in his be...

Chase said the funniest thing...

Chase just said the funniest thing, so I had to write it down somewhere. He's watching an old Looney Tunes DVD that we checked out from the library. You know, the classic Bugs Bunny, and Tweety Bird and stuff. Anyway, there's a part on there where this bad guy is trying to kill Bugs Bunny and he keeps saying "shut up". Rick and I picked up on this and looked at each other, not sure whether to turn it off or let it go. So Rick decides to do the following. He says, "Hey Chase, I don't like this movie. They're saying bad things. How about we watch a different one. Like Transformers (the cartoon version)." Chase's response: "Daddy, how about you go work in your car if you don't like this movie so I can stay in here and watch it." Hahahaha! I'm cracking up. Rick and I looked at each other and figured that was a pretty good answer.
