About Me

I got hitched in October 2006. My son Judah got here on May 15, 2008. We're about to move into a little house. Sometimes I like to paint. Sometimes I like to read. I'm pretty old fashioned although I may not seem like it.

There is blood on all the shoes you’ve worn

I obviously don't post as often as I did pre-baby. The little imp takes up a good 97% of my time. But that's all right. Well, everything ended up working out perfectly and we bought the house. I stink...

Good things are coming to you in due course time

That's what my fortune cookie said the day I found out I was pregnant with Judah. I'm glad I saved that for the scrapbook. He was born Thursday, May 15th at 11:14 pm via C-section. He weighed 6 pounds...

Thundercats are go!

So the fetal monitoring and all that at the hospital went fine. I came home for a bit and felt really sick and dizzy and threw up. I've actually felt pretty sick all day but I'm still on bed rest so I...

But deep inside my bones feel like timber

Well, when I went to the doctor a few days ago, my blood pressure was up again. After they did the internal exam (so much fun), the doctor said the status of stuff in there and the positioning of the ...

well it’s been getting so hard living with the things you do to me

I'm 37 weeks preggo. That's 9 months and a week, I guess. It actually does make more sense to go by weeks instead of months, because months have an uneven number of days...so if each month h...

The people look like flowers at last

8 months. I’m seriously a beached whale. Speaking of sea animals, did you know that some types of sharks, while they are fetal sharks still in the womb, will eat their siblings? That’s jus...

I took the polaroid down in my room

I'll be 7 months in a few days. I passed my glucose tolerance test at my doctor's appointment. The stuff they had me drink tasted like excessively sugared, flat orange soda. So, it wasn't amazing...

Walking the cow

Yup, it's my monthly blog update. I'm 6 months along. Today's doctor's appointment wasn't very eventful, but in a good way. Everything is still as it should be. I get the screening for gestational dia...

Dancing this phantom up and down my spine

I'm 5 months pregnant and I'm having a little boy!!! More importantly, he seems to be a healthy baby as far as the doctors can tell. My blood test came back negative (or low risk) for chromosomal diso...

heart of glass

I'm 4 months gone today. That's how people in the UK say it, they say "4 months gone" instead of "4 months along." Weirdos. Anyway, I had a doctor's appointment this morning and when the doctor was&nb...
