  • “Threen” is a real thing

    The title of this post is accurate, but not as dramatic as it sounds. While we had hoped we would skip the terrible twos, we haven’t quite made it out unscathed as we recently learned about the “threens”, and you are beginning to show signs of its effects. Now, like I said, it’s not as…

  • 2.5 years – You are becoming a human!

    I know that sounds weird, but really, before now it has been really fun watching progression but they were things like sitting up, walking, saying gibberish and so on. You are now starting to exemplify real human traits, and it is really exciting! This was a big 6 months for you. You took your second…

  • 1+1=2

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARPER MAE! You’re two! I keep thinking how weird it is going to be when you read this and just see your life in 6 month increments. Will seem like it went so fast. Trust me, it didn’t. Kidding (kind of). As always, another full round of firsts! First babysitter (Lindsey, or as…

  • 1.5 and going strong

    Guess what? Seriously, guess what? You did the most unbelievable thing since you were born during the last six months. It was something neither of us thought would ever happen. An action we had given up on long ago. But your surprised us, and in the most positive way possible. YOU ARE SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!…

  • Tomorrow!

    Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. You are going to be here anytime now! Due date, Feb. 20, is tomorrow if you can believe it which I cannot. That being said, we are as ready as we possibly could be! Mom just left the doctor and she is still not dilated so looks like it will be another…

  • Your Mattress is Here!

    Among the things that occurred today, your mattress did in fact arrive! There was a bit of scrutiny over which one to get you, as your mother (of course) wanted the most expensive and organic and everything below the sun in the mattress. I was a bit more reasonable, and we got you one in…

  • Been Way Too Long

    Right now it is  12:33am on the 15th of January…and wow has time flown by. Let’s tackle this efficiently, and first let me list the developments and afterwards go into the details of each: You are a GIRL!!! You are obscenely healthy (thanks to your mom who has been unbelievable during her pregnancy) You are…

  • It’s been busy!

    Things got BUSY! Work is kicking my ass, but at the same time we are doing a lot on the house in order to get ready for your arrival. Here is a quick synopsis on major happenings occurred and in the near future: We find out your gender a week from today! We are having…

  • My Friends Are Trying to Steal the Vote!

    It’s been a couple weeks since I have had the chance to update things, but to be honest not much is going on. We did have another appointment yesterday, which went extremely well. The doctor took the heartbeat, no ultrasound this time, and your beat was at 160 BPM. This caused Dr. West to pull…

  • Grandparents’ Jobs

    I remember growing up, thinking to myself that there was just no way that my grandparents could have possibly worked. By the time I came they were either retired or very close and I would hear in spotted conversations about their work history. Figure here I can give you a very real observation on each…
