…and all’s well! No cholestasis yet. The baby is having a grand old time literally bouncing off the walls of my uterus. I have a feeling we are going to have to watch this child closely. I haven’t seen my feet in who knows how long (except in pictures of course), but I am thrilled […]

Okay, here’s another mealtime story. First, you should know that whenever we tell Kaeta to “eat 3 more bites” of something, we count as she eats the bites. So she’s gotten used to that. Well, today at lunch, Kaeta needed to take two more bites of her grilled cheese sandwich before she could have a […]

For some reason, Kaeta keeps acting like a girl. Yesterday I was wearing my Pittsburgh Pirates shirt, featuring this logo: When Kaeta saw this, she pointed right at the pirate’s bandana and exclaimed, “Ladybug!” Sheesh.

For dinner tonight we had chicken, broccoli, and macaroni & cheese. All through dinner, Kaeta kept saying “Macky-roony! Macky-roony!” So the mac & cheese was a hit, but she wasn’t touching her chicken or broccoli. After awhile, Karianne told her, “Eat two more bites of chicken, then you can have more macky-roony.” Kaeta ignored this […]

Tuesday evening we went to Target to pick up the Season 3 DVDs of The Office. (That’s right, we bought it on the day it was released. We’re those people.) Anyway, as we were leaving, we noticed a bumper sticker on the car parked next to us that cracked us up. It said: I’d rather […]

Yes, we’re posting again about the new carpet. Our excitement about the new carpet far exceeds the bounds of reason, but we don’t care! Click here for photos from the installation. And here is a cheesy video I made: [Download Video, 2.7Mb]

29 weeks and counting! Our second sonogram showed that the baby is growing strong and healthy. Although we were once again tempted, we did not find out the sex of the baby. We waited to find out with our first pregnancy and the surprise in the delivery room was well worth it. The baby continues […]

No, that’s not a typo. Monday we had new carpet installed, and so far, we love it. It is soft and luxurious, and is a significant upgrade from the builder’s grade crapet we had been living with for far too long. It is indescribable and fairly embarrassing how excited we are about this new carpet. […]

As the temperature outside is rising, along with our nerdy, boring-life index (in which we consider getting new carpet next week the most exciting thing that has happened in our lives since Kaeta was born), we are looking for ways to “cool” down. So over the past couple of weeks, we got new cell phones […]

Lately Kaeta says she “loves” everything. Yesterday she was sitting on the couch, looking at a book with different animal on each page, and she was saying “I love… piggies. I love… horse. I love… bah-rah.” Bah-rah is bunny rabbits, of course. So last night we were eating ice cream, and I was giving her […]
