Last Prenatal (37.5 Weeks)
Last Tuesday was our last prenatal apointment. Everything was great, blood pressure back down to normal for me (Jon drove this time!) Baby is big, head-down, and all is well. The next time we see our midwife, I'll be in labor! Keep praying, we're almost there! (More)

Catch! and Helping
On Tuesday, Jonathan caught a ball for real! Usually the only time he catches it is if the thrower lands it directly into his arms. This time, he actually reached out and to the side with his two hands to make a sucessful catch. This past week has been very hot, slowing an already big and slow... (More)

First Sailing Adventure, 2006
Sunday, May 21st, on the way home from church, we saw what a gorgeous day it was and we wanted to go for a sail. We ate a quick lunch and then I took a nap while Jon and Jonathan prepared a picnic dinner and got the boat ready. We were all ready at the same time, and we headed off to the river.... (More)

36 Weeks
Jon had a business-related meeting this evening, and so needed to be in to work on time today. Thus, Jonathan and I went to the midwife appointment by ourselves. My weight gain and growth was good, still measuring big (ie, didn't slow down.) My blood pressure was the highest it's ever been... (More)

Robin Eggs Abandoned
We don't really know what happened, but we hadn't seen any robins at the nest for a while. Three weeks after Easter, I became suspicious, and now for sure these eggs won't hatch. We're going to clean up the whole window area and hopefully next year we will have successful robin hatching. (More)

Exercise
Good advice: if you're tired, make yourself get some exercise, even (or especially) if you're pregnant! I have observed before that I feel better when I am getting exercise, but for some reason I have lacked motivation to be consistent. Jon has been bugging me a lot about exercising, mostly I... (More)

The Christmas Tree Survives!
Our first attempt at keeping a live Christmas tree live was a dismal failure, for two main reasons. One, we didn't take it down until April or some other such long time. Two, I misunderstood the instructions about misting the tree. What you are supposed to do is mist the branches to keep them... (More)

Names
Don't ever name your child the same name as you. It confuses everyone, from doctors to insurance carriers to airlines. USAir and United won't let me check-in online any more, since it can't figure out what to do with Jonathan and me. We both have different frequent flyer numbers, but it is... (More)

Verizon Credit Check
I got a notification from a credit bureau today saying that a new account had been opened by: Verizon Pen, PO BOX 165018, COLUMBUS, OH 43216. Since I haven't changed phone service since last year, it seemed odd that there would be a new account from Verizon.My mortgage company had their backup... (More)

26 Weeks
Had another prenatal appointment yesterday. All is well. She found the heartbeat right away this time, but Jon couldn't find it himself. He is too cautious - but I'd sure rather he be too gentle than too rough! We had to wait a little while because there was a new baby born this morning. He... (More)

22 Weeks
Had another prenatal appointment this morning. Blood pressure great; measuring a little big, but still within normal. I have felt like all of a sudden the last week or so, my belly has "popped out." Baby was moving so much it took a while to locate the heartbeat, but it was definitely there.... (More)

Daddy Felt the Baby!
We've been trying for a couple of weeks with no success. Then this morning, he gave Jon a nice big kick he could feel, hooray! This is 21 weeks. (More)

Halfway Already
20 weeks, half way. Baby is moving a lot, but still not yet felt by the outside world. I borrowed a home blood pressure monitor and that has been nice. It's on the low side, but within normal range, so I am happy. (More)
