The cable is coming tomorrow between 10am and 12pm. That means this time tomorrow I could be watching (or recording for viewing later) A Baby Story. And I actually feel good about this. I don’t feel guilty. In fact, right about now I feel like I deserve a little break for all of my hard [...]
This weekend Marc and I became members of the church we’ve been attending for the past year/year and a half. Part of the process of becoming members involved us meeting with one of the committees of the church and each of us, informally, giving our testimonies. It was actually quite fun and I was surprised [...]
Madeline just came down the stairs and said, “Mommy, I present to you my David and Goliath dvd to put on!” What a nice, formal request (albeit without a please attached). However, since I just tucked her into bed 5 minutes ago, she’s not going to get that dvd until morning.
But the excitement of the [...]
For those of you who don’t normally read my husband Marc’s blog, you may want to go and read about today’s little incident of raging pregnancy hormones and bread. Sometimes I just don’t understand this pregnany thing!
You know your children are too big compared to you when:
Your 22 month old wants to wear your watch and it fits on the hole only one smaller than where you wear it.
You continually get confused on laundry day between your underwear and your 4 year old daughter’s.
For about the past three days I’ve had very productive days. I’ve gotten lots of housework done and organzing and purging of our stuff, even getting some things prepared for the baby. I’ve spent lots of great times with the kids playing and dancing around and laughing with them. I’ve gotten a lot of office work done. And all [...]
Our house has pretty small bedrooms. It has three bedrooms upstairs (and then the one we put in in the basement), which is great, but they’re small, which is not so great. As a result, we are going to have the baby in our room for the first little while, until we figure out how [...]
Today in the mail we got a card from Shaw Cable addressed to the ‘Current Occupant’ of our address. You see, since Marc and I moved into this place 4 years ago we’ve been connecting and disconnecting our cable once every six months. Shaw offers us full cable for 6 months at $19.95; we accept; [...]
I started reading Abraham Heschel’s classic The Sabbath the other day. I’m only at the second chapter, but I could tell already at the prologue that this is going to be a favourite book — right up there with The Genesee Diary. This fall Marc and I started thinking again about trying to observe a [...]
I’m sitting/laying here on the bed doing some work on the laptop and the baby’s kicking so hard it’s making my belly move. The fat is even jiggling from the movement. The baby is getting bigger and stronger everyday. These days it’s kicking almost at the top of my belly. And it’s really kicking hard now — must [...]
