Mom came down to Austin today… we went bra shopping.
From a 32A (and not even that — more like 32AA) to a 34B, yeah, baby, yeah!
Okay, maybe that was a little bit TMI (too much information) but every reason to celebrate at this point is a good one. Like still not having [...]
Two more weeks of school. Two more weeks of lessons (though I think I am going to take the last week off from the High School students… wierd finals schedule!) and then we’re off for two weeks. The first week will be cruisin’ on the Royal Caribbean Rhapsody of the Seas and the second week [...]
Yes, I know, we’re EIGHT weeks and ONE day, but that ONE day is the start of the NINTH week. Pregnancy math, let me tell you.
Today is my first completely nauseated day. Not bad, though. No running to a bathroom yet! But I have been consistently sick-to-my-stomach-queasy. I’ve had a realization about food: If [...]
David’s school’s beginner band (6th graders) has a concert Friday night. We’re looking forward to this concert being done and over with… David in class and me in my lessons. Of all the schools I teach in, though, I really feel that David’s school does the best job with the 6th graders. At other middle [...]
Well, my sources were right on the mark with the new Saturn Minivan, so why not trust them when they email me this link? For those of you not wanting to visit that site, here’s a pic of the sketch of the car:
Having Babies by Thomas Congdon. He spent 9 months in an obgyn practice getting to know the doctors and patients and followed different parts of different pregnancies through different stages and gives a lot of historical background into the profession of obstetrics.
I’m halfway through. I am really enjoying this book.
Let’s just say that I’m not looking forward to this week. I’m not looking forward to any week which involves work. I’m getting pretty used to being able to relax all day and not have to focus my brain power… and not be around children. other people’s hormonal adolescent pre-teen children.
But this week [...]
Our baby may only be between the sizes of a pinto bean and a raspberry, but next year’s halloween costume is already bought. We couldn’t pass up the chili pepper costume for a $1 at Once Upon A Child. NOTE: THIS IS NOT WHAT OUR BABY WILL LOOK LIKE… this is a picture to give [...]
Yes, we’re pregnant. And we told the fam. today so there is no use keeping it a secret anymore. But I will not tell you about it here. For the curious, visit my pregnancy journal where I will put all the pregnancy stuff… to keep it nice and neat and most [...]
The infection is almost gone, though I am still taking my medicine faithfully. I am so glad there is medicine that a doctor can prescribe to take care of the infection but keep me and the growing embryo safe.
Today I inherited several pregnancy books from my sister-in-law, Kimberly. She has a three-month old, [...]
Before I headed out to my doctor’s appointment, I had lunch with Nicole and her almost-three-month-old, Hailey. We enjoyed a nice lunch at the Brick Oven.
I complained about it stinging when my bladder emptied and we decided I should mention it to the doctor, which I did. Turns out, I have a urinary tract [...]
So our first doctors visit is this afternoon. I am so nervous. I feel like I’m going in there for a performance. Hello, this is my body. This is my child. How are we doing? like there’s a grade involved. A+! like there should be applause at the grace of God to allow my body [...]
