Today I had a pre-natal checkup. The kind where they weight you, take your BP, listen to the baby, measure the bump and ask if you are ok and if the baby is kicking. Pretty simple easy and straightforward…well, except for the peeing in a cup. C’mon…it’s hard enough to do without a 40lb bump [...]
Recently my son started preschool. He’s 3 1/2 and was insistent that he wanted to go, so he goes 3 days a week for 2 1/2 hours to a preschool at the local Methodist Church. We’re not Methodists, but they have a nice program and since the public school essentially only has a preschool program [...]
I’d like to take a moment to gripe about something. Now, I know how shocking it would be for anyone who knows me to picture me – me – actually complaining about something (that was sarcasm, by the way) but it must be said. The people who design maternity clothes are demented. Anyone who would [...]
Today I got my weekly pregnancy email from Americanbaby.com. This week is supposedly week 33 of 40 for me, and I enjoy reading their little updates on where the baby is currently as far a development goes. They also have a blurb about “your body” and the changes it is likely going through for this [...]
My son asked me that question today at dinner. Why is it September? How in the heck do I answer that one? He’s quite prone to “why, this” and “why, that” and we try not to use “because I said so” and actually explain to him the answer to his question. He’s not even four [...]
C’mon, admit it….you wore them. I know I did…I can’t believe I did, but I did. Luckily I don’t think any photographic evidence exists so there is no proof. Anyhow, this morning I saw a woman wearing them while she was power walking down the street by my house. I was torn between laughing at [...]
Last night my husband, son and I were out and about at a function I had to attend for work. After the event, around 6:45 or so, we left starving and decided we would stop to find something to eat. My son kept making wonderful suggestions from McDonalds to White Castle, and I while I [...]
My son has an ever so “fun” thing he likes to do when you ask him to do something and you don’t happen to be right next to him. Here’s an example: Me (from the kitchen): “Jacob, can you come here?” Jake (from his room): “What?” Me (from the kitchen): “Please come here.” Jake (from [...]
Ok, I admit it…I’m not a very good cook. In fact, I’m not even very good at simply heating things up either. Let’s take frozen pizza for instance. Seems simple enough. Pre-heat oven to 425. I can do that, no problem. Heck, I even remember to check the oven for any stray items left in [...]
