This last weekend, we had the chance to get outta dodge and go visit some nature. Same cabin as last year and it was just great. We had snow in the hills and it was plenty cold. We did some beer (and root beer) tasting, watched a lot of TV, went to the tippy top…
Baby Shower
Well after all my moaning and groaning about how hard it is being pregnant, my wonderful sister-in-law went and threw us the best baby shower in the whole wide world. Seriously, you would not believe how awesome it was. We had quite a guest list and she made accommodations for everyone – all 65 friends,…
Things They Don't Tell You About Pregnancy
I’ve read “What To Expect When You Are Expecting”. I even glanced at it before I got pregnant. It almost made me not want to bother. Almost. Because if you focus on all the pain and suffering it takes to get that little baby into your arms, it seriously sounds like a deal-breaker. But I…
Happy Halloween!
We stayed home today. I mostly sat on my big booty while my husband packed the kitchen getting ready for the remodel next week. But we DID go out on Friday and Saturday nights so we wouldn’t feel too old and boring. This was our (very last minute) costume: Juno & Paulie Bleeker Hope everyone…
Three!!!
Happy birthday to the cutest kid on the planet!! I keep telling my sister I’m worried – you are supposed to think your own children are the cutest ever, but look at him! What if he is really always #1 cutie??! Love you buddy. I can’t believe you are 3 and growing up so fast.…
Darn!
Last week I had a Glucose Challenge Test done to test for gestational diabetes. To get the test, you first have to starve yourself, then you have to drink a sickeningly sweet sugar water, then you have to wait around for an hour before having your blood drawn. Test results came back a little high.…
The Events
OK, so let’s talk about what we did while the cutest nephew in the world was visiting. (I should mention that my sister was here too. I know she sometimes gets overshadowed by the cuteness of the kid, but she is fun to be around too! She’s such a good mom and likes to have…
This Is The Face...
I have had the pleasure of spending a week with this little guy. He makes me so excited and nervous to have a baby of my own! I just love him!
Reunited, and it Feels So GOOD!
Reunited with my short hair, that is. Don’t get me wrong, there is something to be said for having long hair and I was kind of enjoying it – it looks full and luxurious when it’s actually styled, it feels good brushing against the back of your arms and shoulders, and bad hair days are…
Nevermind!
The Fall-ish weather did not last. It was like a cruel joke! Two days after I posted, we reached 98 degrees here. And today, it’s supposed to be 110. We are mostly trying to stay indoors and run up our electric bill with non-stop air conditioning. Not cool, Mother Nature! Not cool.
