After breakfast on Noah's birthday, we went to the dollar store to buy him some balloons. Jonathan thought Noah shouldn't come, because it would spoil the surprise, but I said that since Noah likes to go on walks, he'd have a happier birthday if he came with us. And what's another 10... (More)

Happy Birthday, Noah!

Today, Noah is two years old! He is a blessing to our family, and I look forward to watching and helping him grow more and more. Since the second birthday is not much more interesting to the recipient than the first, we'll be having a simple family celebration with balloons and cake. I'm... (More)

Someday I'll Just Stay Home and Eat Bonbons

On Wednesday, we walked to the Shursave for a regular shopping trip. The only difference in this trip was the lack of milk in the bottom of the cart, since I had just gotten some at Trader Joe's. But it made a big difference for Jonathan! He pulled the cart the whole way home by himself,... (More)

30 Weeks

Everything is progressing nicely. We were late yet again (Jon thought the appointment was 20 minutes later than it was, and I lost track of time.) Even with rushing, my blood pressure was the same as it has been this pregnancy. The most fun part was when it was time to hear the heartbeat. ... (More)

Scrapbook Details

We went through Jonathan's piles of saved papers and threw out a bunch. We took pictures of some things and they are in the pictures page under jonathan/2008/scrapbook . Some are labelled "bulk save see file for details" or some such thing. Here are the details. Bulk save 09:... (More)

Conversations With Jonathan

I forgot to write this down before; Jonathan can now spell "Jonathan Daley" all by himself. He used to get stuck after "Jon." He read a book of jokes the other day, and he thought they were hilarious. But he doesn't quite get the concept of "crossing" two things. Jonathan's version:... (More)

28 Weeks

My glucose came back fine and so did the iron. The fundal height is only slightly big - I'm hoping this is a positive indication of not as big a baby as Noah! Also, praise God, this little guy is already head down. Thanks for your prayers on all of those things. After this we're going... (More)

Fourth Pregnancy: Third Trimester

Home stretch, here we are! This will be the first time my third trimester is entirely in the summer, so I was glad for that stretch of cold, rainy May. I went for my glucose tolerance test yesterday, and Jonathan was jealous that I got to drink the "orange soda." Too bad he couldn't... (More)

Fixed It!

Yesterday, Jonathan was playing with a mini flashlight when part of it fell off. He spent quite a while trying to put it back together ("Mommy! The clear part fell off, and when I tried to get that, the bulb fell out. Where does this black piece go?") But he was mostly talking to... (More)

Multi Update

Noah now has many more words that I can write down. They are still mostly only understood by me and Jonathan, but he's using his mouth to communicate. Most words have only the initial consonant and vowel sound (moo for "moose") and some have only part of the word (mo' for "remote") so much... (More)

The Extended Family is Growing

Saturday, May 17 was a big day for both sides of the extended family. In the morning, we got a cell phone call from Switzerland announcing my sister's engagement . Soon we also got an email that Jon's sister was in labor, and that night Ryan Robert Philibert was... (More)

Connect the Dots

Jonathan got a couple of connect the dots books for Christmas and has recently taken off with them. He can easily do the ones that go up to 25, and I made him a homemade one that went to 40. He likes to make his own and have me or Jon fill them out. Usually he does not label the dots with... (More)

Noah Says More, Jonathan Says Less

Jonathan wants me to write that he says, "blaller, blaller, hee haw haw." Noah, on the other hand has some more words and signs. Well, one sign, cereal . Words are "down" (dow), "beep" and "bird" which really sounds like (bee.)... (More)

24 Weeks

I was supposed to have my appointment last week, but that was the morning I woke up sick. So it was rescheduled for yesterday. I measured big, but I knew I would and she wasn't concerned when I told her I always measure big. My blood pressure was exactly the same as last... (More)
