First Pat
I got my first stranger’s belly pat today and it wasn’t too bad! I was never worried about receiving one from friends and family, but I anticipated that it would just be plain odd from a stranger. I have space issues with people I don’t know - it seems natural enough, yes?
After gym class this […]
Renewed
I think all I needed was some productivity and rest. Last night, I got the kitchen fairly caught up, researched on how to get our Time Capsule set up (since we’ve had some issues with that) and got some good work in. I woke up feeling refreshed; it wasn’t my best sleep ever but my […]

Today Elijah and I had a delightful lunch with Nana (my mom) at Alamo Cafe. Elijah picked on tortilla chips, beans, rice and beef fajita taco. Of course, as luck would have it, we were seated right next to the crane toy machine. Elijah is a fan of games like that - he got it […]

During Elijah’s nap time today, I had this idea that I should get him to help bake this blueberry sour cream strudel that I had been wanting to make for at least a week. So I promptly pulled out all the ingredients and waited patiently for my sous chef
I think he had […]
27 Weeks Part II
As I blog away and prepare to start my work for the night, I sit here on the floor in tailor’s pose. Something Fran and I have talked about since our TTC journey started over three years ago is going natural (sans drugs) during labor and delivery. It’s not something that I am dead set […]

Ahhh! We haven’t had Family Fun Friday in a long, long time! I think we started Family Fun Friday when both Fran and my FMLA leave finished and we were both back at work. We were spoiled spending all day every day with Elijah, so at the end of the week, we declared it Family […]

Woohoo!
I posted my first item (our wooden filing cabinet that we stained ourselves) on Craigs.list this morning at 6 am and almost immediately got 9 responses. I am super happy to report that I was able to sell it to the first person for my original asking price. She offered less but I stuck to […]
Fun Weekend
This WAHM had a wonderful weekend and I am so sad to see it come to an end!
Saturday after making stuffed Blueberry French Toast (out of our Weight Watcher’s cookbook, no less) we took a family walk down the street. Half way down the block, we met up with Grandma Alice (Elijah’s […]
Happy Monkey
This year finding a costume for Elijah started out as a torturous venture for Mom and Mama. We wanted him to be involved in decided yet wanted something cute and practical. After all, we did figure that soon enough we’ll have no say whatsoever.
Whenever we’d ask, “Elijah! What do you want to be for Halloween?” […]
Belly Fun
I am so behind on belly pics. Hopefully tonight I will remember to get a 25 week 1 day one from Fran as I give up on doing my own.
Here are some from last week when I was 24 weeks. (Keep in mind this shirt is not flattering at all, but incredibly comfy in this […]
Hallelujah!
1. I have a temporary laptop from work so my plunge forward begins tonight!
2. The boy sleeps! I am at 1.5 hours right now. Of course, I could have spent this time working, but nooooo… This girl had to get her internet junkie fix! I did however set up my development site on this new […]
Woohoo and yet no…
YEA! I fixed our database errors. Yes, I should be working but I couldn’t concetrate with this looming over my head
I had a wonderful post and title this morning as Elijah and I went for our “daily constitutional walk” as Grandma Alice called it, but of course I can’t remember any of it now […]
We’ve Got Class!
Today was Elijah’s first fall semester gym class. We have Ms. J again and what a world of difference! Our Elijah was like a whole new boy! He was running around, jumping up and down, getting excited for each new part of the class. He even wanted to hold the parachute and wiggle it about. […]

Today was Elijah’s first kiss!
At Little Gym class today, Elijah and I were sitting on the blue steps, deciding which obstacle to conquer next. Then out of nowhere, little McKenzie came over, placed her two small hands on either side of his face and gently pulled him toward her. She gave him a […]
Getting By on 3 Hours of Sleep
Surprisely I am holding up really well. Minus a few venting sessions with my mom and Fran, I feel in a cheery mood and in control, one of my favorite things!
Things that have gotten me through on my nearly 3 hours of sleep today:
1. Elijah’s random hugs. He knows I need them!
2. His random cackle.
3. […]
