Brother or sister??

Sept. 25: Today is the day of my 20 week ultrasound, and I just can’t wait to get a glimpse of the little wanderer inside.  I asked Andrew last night if he thought that the teeny tiny baby would be a sister or a brother.  He said sister.  Then I asked if a sister was [...]



Half way done?!

Sept. 22: I feel like my belly is doing some major growth this week.  Objectively, I don’t think I look any different, but it’s somewhat uncomfortable down there.  I’m still feeling the little one kick…little blip-y feelings.  The other night, it was actually making it kind of hard for me to fall asleep.  Such a [...]



Now in the produce aisle…it’s a zucchini

Sept. 15: The last week has flown by in a very calm way, and I was really shocked to see an update from BabyCenter.com in my inbox yesterday telling me that I am now 19 weeks pregnant.  A little over a week now until I have my ultrasound appointment, and I’m feeling increasingly pregnant.  These [...]



Moving around

Sept. 11: I had my third prenatal visit this afternoon.  I actually had it scheduled yesterday, but I totally spaced the appointment.  Good thing I’m not in charge of anything really important right now…I think my brain needs a break!Dr. Flannery said that everything looked good.  She found the heartbeat right away, and the little [...]



I’ve got a sweet potato!

Sept. 9: I can’t say that I’ve focused a lot on my pregnancy the last couple weeks, but in the mornings when I first wake up, I do so enjoy lying quietly in bed, spending a few moments focusing on and sending love to this little being who is growing inside of me.  I continue [...]



Onion or uterine parasite?

Sept. 1: I’m now at 17 weeks of pregnancy, and there have been quite a few times in the last week that I felt a little bubble-like sensation.  I’m pretty sure it’s the little one starting to say hello.  This has been a really easy pregnancy thus-far.  Andrew seems to enjoy saying good morning to [...]



Because we could all use a laugh

Sept. 1: This Onion article, Woman Overjoyed by Giant Uterine Parasite has given us a lot of laughter in the last few days.  Thought you would enjoy it too.



It’s an avocado!

Aug. 24: The baby-on-the-way is growing in leaps and bounds.  Last week, they told me it was 2.5 oz, and this week (week 16), it added a whole additional ounce.  I’ve been feeling really good for the last month or so.  Actually, my regular jeans fit me again.  They didn’t fit well starting at about [...]



There’s a heartbeat inside!

August 14: I had my second prenatal appointment this afternoon, and I got to hear the wee one’s heart beat.  Click hear, and you can hear it too. Baby’s hearts beat is about 150 times per minute.  I’m fourteen weeks into the pregnancy, and so far, everything is going well:)



New baby on the way?

June 6: I’m not going to publish this until we make our news public, but it appears that Andrew may be a big brother!   I took a pregnancy test on Thursday, and it came back negative.  However, when I tried it again on Sunday, June 3, there it was.  A faint blue plus on the [...]
