Dear Nathaniel,
We had a hot dog party for you tonight. Some day soon you’ll understand your daddy’s obsession with the Pigeon books - you can thank My Jessika for that. Although, I guess now she is your Jessika too. I don’t mind sharing her with you. I don’t mind sharing anything [...]
I saw the doctor today and it looks like tonight is the night. I’m not at all a candidate for induction so we’ll go in this evening and if they aren’t diverting non-emergency patients then by tomorrow morning I’ll have my son in my arms. I’m overwhelmed to say the least.
David and I have been [...]
I saw the OB today. I have developed these excruciating welts on my lower abdomen.  David thought they looked like hernias. Turns out they are actually edema and there isn’t anything I can do about it except give birth. When I say excruciating I mean they are the worst pain I have ever felt and [...]
Like today. The grocery boys delivered this week’s goodies and right after they left the cleaning people showed up and made our home spotless. Including changing the sheets on our bed and cleaning the inside of the toaster oven. Me? Oh, I sat outside on the patio reading a book.

It’s been awhile since my last update. I’m still pregnant. I fear I am going to be pregnant forever. We had a scan on the 25th of May (35 weeks exactly) that showed that the “Little” Dude isn’t actually so little. In fact, he weighed approximately 8 pounds and 6 ounces. [...]

1. Bill O’Reily hates me
2. I was a regular on The Facts [...]

Here are some shots of Little Dude’s room. There are a couple of small things we need to add, but overall I’m calling it done. Although I’m not really calling him done just yet. He gets a few more week’s of cooking time I hope. Without further ado…
Everyone should have a [...]
I fully recognize that the following makes me incredibly shallow and vain, and I don’t care. The grocery delivery boy today asked me “How much longer until the baby?” While I was in sweats, a tank, and a big cardigan that feels like a hug. Not even maternity clothes – which everyone [...]
What pregnancy is complete without a middle of the night visit to Labor & Delivery? We now know we can get from our home to the hospital parking lot in 9 minutes at 12:30 in the morning. We now know on which side of the hospital to park. We know where is [...]
I was working around the house this weekend with my iPod. I love my iPod. I love its randomness. While painting on Saturday the list went a little something like this:
Neil Diamond’s Brother Love’s Traveling Show
Bowling for Soup’s Come Back to Texas
Merle Haggard’s My Favorite Memory
KISS’s Beth
Yo-Yo Ma’s Cello Suite No.1, 2. [...]
