My Review Of The Snoo Cirb!

July31

What is the Snoo crib?
It is the BEST thing we bought for little Calico. It is a “smart” crib that gently rocks the baby, plays white noise, and keeps them secured and sleeping on their back in a swaddle. What else? If they cry or wake up it uses the happiest baby method to gently rock them more and increase the noise until they go back to sleep. And, as that happens it goes back to the base setting (plus it notifies you if they are still crying after x minutes(

Calico slept so much in this thing. He usually got a block of 6 to 7 hours, plus another 3 to 4. And, sometimes a full 10 to 12 hours. This thing is worth its weight in gold.

It is brand new as a product, our first one had some squeaking after 2 months and they replaced it no questions asked. Made by the Happiest Baby doctor and a bunch of MIT engineers. Comes with phone app too.

What does it look like?

Video of it in action?

It is expensive, but when broken down over 6 months it is worth it for the SLEEP. You will not be sorry. I wish they made one for adults :).

My Baby Has Man Farts.

February25

See this cute little guy?

Since the moment we got home he has had man farts.

He wakes Lindsey up at night with his man farts.

He wakes Ben up at night with his man farts.

They are loud.

They are not baby farts.

They are man farts.

Calico Jack Gets Personality!

February7

It is crazy how quick Calico is getting some personality! He is doing great, and he had a blast meeting one of his other grandmother’s and auntie :). I love how much he looks like Winston Churchill when he squinches up his face.

Calico Jack = 1 Month Old :)

January27

It has been fantastic and so much fun :). The below picture is Calico’s face when I tell him about the time I fought all the dinosaurs in the world and that is why none are left. Super skeptical face.

Loving Our House :)

October22

We bought a house in Boulder in March and we moved in late July. Lindsey did an amazing job overseeing all the work we had done, as we had to rip out an old gravity furnace that had Asbestos, replace the majority of electricial, install HVAC (AC/Heat), refinish the floors, and a ton of small items. She is now an unofficial general contractor!

Lindsey and I spent last Saturday putting together every baby item you can imagine :). Sunday we had a blast throwing a party / baby shower with friends. The lil guy is due December 28th, so getting close!

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
