The Skarin Family Blog

Over the weekend while we were at Mohegan Sun seeing The Dave Matthews Band, Logan was having his first meal.  Auntie Karin gave him his true first cereal (well with a spoon anyway) on Saturday night but this was his first cereal with us.

Every day Evan says things that are funny and memorable.  The problem is that often by the end of the day I forget what those things are.  Here are a few of his most recent gems. While trying to give him a kiss after changing his diaper - “No kisses, Mommy.  When you’re pretty you do give me kisses but...

Gramma has been sick since Thanksgiving.  She is starting to feel better and I think we have just the thing to make her feel even better and bring a smile to her face.  We will bring them to her this weekend.

I have to be honest…this month I missed the monthly photo shoot.  Today was a PJ day and a Thanksgiving PJ day at that.  Thankfully I did get a few really cute pictures and videos yesterday.  We go on Tuesday to Logan’s 4 month well visit…can’t wait to see how much he has grown in the last two months.  As...

Logan still isn’t doing too much yet…at least not when you compare him to his big brother who NEVER. STOPS. RUNNING! But he does make some awfully cute faces, give great smiles and is a very happy, easy-going little guy who deserves a few blog posts all his own.  Here’s one for you, little buddy!  Thanks for brightening every one...

It’s that time of year again…the holidays are here!  Thanksgiving was early but we decided to get a tree and start decorating this weekend anyway.  The beginning of December is busy for us with a bachelor party, Bruce traveling, and then a weekend away at Mohegan for Mommy and Daddy.  For our tree this year, we decided to cut it...

Everyday I live with two little turkeys…today was a day celebrating them…well sort of.  We started the day with pumpkin bread watching the Macy’s Day Parade.  Evan was pretty excited to see some of his favorite characters and was especially excited to see Santa.  We then began the annual RI tour starting at Uncle Bob & Aunt Chris’s for dinner...
