I love doing yard work when it’s our yard! What a difference that makes! I’ve had a few days off and it’s mostly been pretty sunny and warm. Apparently grass grows quite a bit in a week, so I mowed it again and it was a lot easier this time since it was just a… Continue reading Spring in Our Yard – Week 26 and Yardwork
I’m way past due for an update on our puppy! We brought Andrew home on New Year’s Eve. I’ve already posted about where he came from and how we got him, so now I just want to follow up on that. He’s been an amazingly good, easy puppy. NOTHING has been chewed except his toys,… Continue reading Andrew the Dog
Here are the pictures taken by Jan Carlisle after our floors and paint were done, in December. I wanted to show off my early baby bump in some of them, too! I’m glad we have pictures of the floors before they got scratched up by dog nails! They were absolutely beautifully done by Birdseye Hardwoods… Continue reading Refinished Floors and New Paint!
I’m getting close to the third trimester and starting to feel uncomfortable at times…and more like my stomach gets in the way of things. I get a lot of comments from strangers. It’s funny that A. and I are both expecting a baby in just over 3 months, but I end up talking about it… Continue reading Week 25
We took possession of our house at the beginning of December. A.’s brother and his fiancée, and his parents, came to help us rip out the carpets and do some other prep work for the painting and wood floor refinishing. This was the same weekend that we were losing Caleb, so it was really emotional,… Continue reading First Weekend With Our House
We bought our house in October, right around when I turned 31 and we found out I was pregnant. The location was perfect and the house seemed to have been pretty well maintained. Here are some pictures of how it looked at that time. It was cozy and lived-in but not in an updated style,… Continue reading Our House – First Post
Where does the time go? Weeks 22 and 23 were pretty busy. I had been dog sitting for my parents and went up to Port Townsend to take Luna back to them. Andrew had his first big car trip and he did great! I got to see my grandma and some good friends, but I… Continue reading Week 24
Hello, pregnant! I finally started to look like the real deal! Auntie Lynn bought me this sexy dress, and I love it! My hair was starting to drive me nuts, hanging in my face while I was doing wound care at work, so I got it cut. One of my coworkers said she did the… Continue reading Week 21
Isn’t this a beautiful picture? I love the colors. Jan had to edit out oil stains on the street that looked like they were coming out of my butt. Good eye, Jan! That green sweater is a favorite maternity top of mine, and it was really cheap. It’s fun having new clothes! I thought I… Continue reading Week 20 – Halfway There!
Okay, everyone in my life knows this by now, but…it’s a boy! I was not surprised for some reason, even though I kept imagining having a girl. After finding out, my grandma said she knew it was a boy from the way I’m carrying. Hmm. I think it’s a good thing I’m having a boy, because… Continue reading Week 19 – It’s a…
