Strike Three, I'm Ready To Be Out
Thursday morning, we wake up to find mouse droppings and other evidence all over the kitchen.  Result: big kitchen scrubdown. Friday morning, Noah wakes up to find that the silly putty he fell asleep with is now melted into his pants, sheets, and blanket. Result: big fabric scrubdown.... (More)

Pregnant!
Cycles did not return after the miscarriage, and that along with other symptoms leads me to conclude that I am pregnant again.  The due date I am calling March 1. (I don't really think I can count the miscarriage as LMP and I have reason to believe that ovulation was a week later anyway.)... (More)

Miscarriage
I didn't really feel like writing this, but then I thought it weird not to post it.  So I'll mostly just copy the emails I wrote to our parents. This is happening at five weeks of pregnancy, pretty much just two days after being sure I was pregnant (though we did not take a... (More)

Total Church: Introduction
I've just started reading a book I ordered from the library. I don't remember who recommended it - probably either someone at Jubilee, or else a blog I read. Based on the number of things I've liked so far, and I'm only through the introduction, I suspect I'm going to really like this... (More)

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November
We began the day learning about Guy Fawkes Day (Jonathan says now if we ever visit England he wants to visit at the beginning of November so he can participate in the festivities.)  We ended the day by taking Daddy to the ER.  Jon's notes in italics . It was quarter of five... (More)

Carroll Street is Officially For Rent
We signed up for a new phone number for dealing with rental stuff, and bought the numbers to go on the sign today.  Three hours later, we got our first call.  Crazy.  I haven't gotten around to getting it on Craig's List yet or anything. The guy is deciding between a house and a... (More)

Blue Shirt Picture
My sister says I need to update my style.  Same shirt, same glasses, same hair...  I guess I just take after Mom that way.  Here now, for your amusement, is a collage of me near the end of each of my pregnancies.  They are labelled with letters so you can guess which is which if you'd... (More)

32 Weeks
We went to our 32 week appointment today and the office was much busier than when we've come before. The baby moved vigorously during the exam and the midwife had a hard time hearing his heartbeat. The first time, he obviously moved away from where she had the fetoscope; on the next try, I... (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...

Baby Ticker, Midwife Center
My friend Bonnie has this neat baby ticker on her blog, so I thought I'd look up mine.  Since I'm still getting used to the baby being as old as he is, it was surprising to me to see how big he looks.  I couldn't get the application to imbed in the post, so it's on our sidebar at... (More)

Corneal Abrasion
Sunday morning, after playing outside before church, Jonathan came to me complaining that his eye hurt.  It was red and watering, but I could not see any foreign object.  It continued to be irritated, so I wondered if it might be pinkeye. The pain would come in waves, hurting... (More)

Grandchildren Update
As has already been observed, I haven't been so diligent at writing down the doings and sayings of my sons.  Here's what I did write down and what other stuff I can remember. 8/24 - Noah built a block tower with four blocks. Recently, Noah has been patient for the prayer before... (More)

7th Tooth Finally Makes It and Other Stories
Lower left.  It's been bothering him for quite a while.  Glad it's through and I hope the matching one comes quickly so we can have a rest for a while.   Noah has made up his own game that's kind of like Bocce ball.  He holds one ball in his hand, and then uses it... (More)

Not Forgotten
Just because we were too busy to post does not mean we did not think about Isaac this Thanksgiving.  Tuesday the 21st was his 4th birthday.  At women's Bible study we sang a song about the people of God, the Church, Christ's body - and one phrase reminded me of the support in... (More)

Noah's Birth Story
Wednesday, June 28. 2:30am. My water broke! That was different. I woke Jon up with the news and he called the midwife while I went up to go to the bathroom and to wake up my parents. The midwife said it could be a long time before labor gets going after water breaking, but that we could... (More)
