when we found ourselves with an extra weekend before hazel arrived, we tried to do some fun things with the kids… like christmas shaped pancakes with some sprinkles… check out anna’s sweet pigtails… the wink of approval… after the appointment where we scheduled the induction of a super late hazel, i returned home to find […]
lid kid everyday life
cookie mayhem. 2013 edition.
ok. so, knowing hazel was making an early december arrival, i knew i wouldn’t be making a bunch of christmas cookies, as i have in years past. but, i definitely wanted to make cut out cookies with the kids, because that’s super fun, and i didn’t want hazel to steal all of the christmas thunder… […]
clean baby.
hazel had her first bath yesterday. well. aside from the sponge bath in the hospital from our nurse friend, angela. but this one would be way better, immersed in the warm water. while the rest of the family looked on… wet babies are slippery little suckers. fresh clean baby:
my last night of pregnancy.
well. we went to the doc today. and they pretty much induce at 41 weeks. which is wednesday for me. so, we scheduled to be induced tomorrow. and the hospital gave us 430am as our time slot. thanks for that. i just packed up the kiddos to head to gramma’s. derek is getting me one […]
the week in (very few) pictures.
(i’m still pregnant. and bags are packed. and things are mostly clean. and so on. so, i am blogging.) we had thanksgiving at derek’s sister’s house. here’s the kidz table. it was very giggly. the cousins exchanged gifts (mostly because we got them a lego star wars advent calendar and we don’t have the family […]
the finish line. or not quite.
well. today is my due date for this third (and last) baby. and it’s not looking very promising that she will be here any time soon. isaac was a few days early. anna was a few days late. but they were both induced. i was hoping this girl would be at least on time, if […]
39 weeks and 1 day.
i am in my 40th week of pregnancy. which is supposed to be the last. except anna proved that to be wrong. i don’t feel like there’s a baby who is ready to make her arrival. just fat. and tired. and ready. also. it’s thanksgiving. we are getting ready to head to derek’s sister’s house […]
kitchen table. birthday. and general kid cuteness.
things have been kind of low-key around here. trying to wrap up loose ends and get ready for the craziness to arrive. i have been hating our kitchen table situation for a long long time. the cushioned chairs are all completely stained and gross, because i gave up on cleaning them a long time ago. […]
thirty seven.
today i’m thirty seven weeks of pregnant. three to go… i’m starting to be a little on the side of miserable. losing my breath when i bend over to pick something up. feeling like beached whale when it’s time to roll over in bed. having all of my organs squished. (mostly bladder and lungs). constantly […]
