We loved this little life when she was just an idea, a hope, and to have her here now is absolutely incredible. For the details: Zoe Amanda was born February 14, 2007 at 2:51 PM weighing 7 pounds, 7.5 ounces and measuring 19.75 inches. She is healthy and gorgeous and we adore her. Everything went […]
We’re having a baby tomorrow! As one of my friends said, it’s a little surreal to know exactly when your little one is arriving. It has allowed me to prepare quite a bit (a.k.a. let my OCD run rampant) more than if I were just waiting. Honestly if Saturday came and went I might get […]
The baby daddy is refusing to take any more pictures of me (which I think is unfair seeing as how he did this – I wouldn’t be unhappy with my face if I hadn’t gained 28 pounds), so this is what we have for tonight. Three more days till Zoe! 🙂
Though my husband is capable of many mental and physical feats of strength, we were unable to watch the much-anticipated new episode of LOST last night because he was “tired” and didn’t “want to stay up until 10” – I don’t know what that’s about. (Surely it has nothing to do with him staying up […]

So we’re calling him five years old today. They’re mostly good dogs, and I’m happy to have them. For their special day they got a trip […]
The crib arrived last night! It was two days earlier than I thought it would be, so that was nice. We’ll probably put it together tonight. Yesterday I took advantage of some major coupons I had and got a few last-minute things for the baby that I know will be useful right away (like wipes, […]
Finding a comfortable sleeping position these last few weeks has been a challenge, but I have had some success with a combination of extra pillows, a husband, and pets; I consider the following to be optimal: Chief is back support, Joel aligns the hips, and pillow supports the belly. Sarge doesn’t do much for structure, […]
For many months now, my sister Amanda has been running her little legs off with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training program. She will complete the ING Georgia Marathon (that’s 26.2 miles, to clarify!) this March 25 in Atlanta. I am so proud of and inspired by her dedication to her training – […]
