Overdue...

I "lost" my library card. Not in the way that most people lose things; I actually know where it is. I just can't retrieve it from inside the dryer vent. Apparently it was in the back pocket of my jeans...

Firsts

Still no baby. I'm trying to post a little something for you guys at least every couple of days; I don't want to leave you hanging for too long for fear that you'll assume our little one decided to arrive....

Pint Sized

The pint is a respectable serving size, right? We have a cabinet full of pint glasses in the kitchen; I drink water by the pint all the time. I'm finding that now that the baby has dropped so low, I...

Another Beautiful Day

I had a bloggy dream this afternoon when the toddler came up the front steps with a fistful of dandelion flowers for me of taking and posting a nice, well-lit photo of them in a vase for you guys to...

The belly runneth over

You know you're really pregnant when you outgrow maternity clothes. I had the unfortunate experience of trying to get dressed today. My one remaining pair of maternity jeans (I'm embarrassed to say that I split my favorite pair in the...

Nope. Not Yet.

My feet are so swollen that my toes look like stuffed sausages. The only comfortable position is with my feet propped up. My back finally started hurting when I stand for more than a few minutes, especially when it involves...

Cravings

This was lunch one day last week. Peanut butter stuffed french toast on whole wheat bread topped with warm, fresh strawberry jam. It really hit the spot, but was probably more work than I should be doing right now....

Movers and Shakers

I cheated a bit on the lay on the couch rest the other night and got on the move a bit. I'd had one of those take it easy days, so I decided that sitting at the sewing machine...

My Perch...

Some of you need to see that I am actually propping my feet up often enough to get a photo. Yep, this is what I look like for the majority of nap time everyday. The top half has a...

Laboring in vain

According to our doctor, as of yesterday, there hadn't been much more progress made. That means the few contractions I did have since our last appointment haven't gotten us far. This is really good news; I'm still suppose to...

As promised!

The sun is finally shining, and the toddler is at Parent's Day Out today. I was happily able to take photos of things in and for his room without help. That's one of his curtains up there. I'm very...

Moving Swiftly Along

In an effort to actually stay off my feet, I did not bother to take any pictures of my progress. And the sun has still not shone, so there aren't any pix of the toddler's new stuff either. A couple...

On the go!

Wouldn't you know it? As soon as I decide I'm going to finally take pictures in the little guys room to share, we get a forecast for three days of clouds! As soon as there's descent natural light, I'll...

Glass Half Full

At last measure, I was only an inch shy of being halfway finished with the Hoover blanket. And upon doing the math, you know, how long I've been working on it versus when I'm due, I don't think I'm...

Spring, finally!

The daffodils are here. During the last week sometime, the grass turned green. And the days are getting warm enough that most afternoons we venture outdoors without jackets for some play time. The birds are back and Mr. and...

Broken

I seriously considered taking a picture of the evidence, but I don't think I can do a broken Denise knitting needle justice with the equipment I have. Yep, I broke the end off of one of the cables for my...
