welcome, 2007.
January 02, 2007
"So far, 2007 has been pretty Not That Great. Dan got sick yesterday with some weird stomach virus thing. At first we thought it was because he drank some beer Sunday night at New Years Eve party (which was fun!) and that mixed with his asthma medicine or something (because he was not drunk enough [...]"
my blog in 2006
January 05, 2007
"I kind of already did one of these ‘looking back on the year‘ things, but this one is a bit more related to my blog, kinda like how the lovely Janet did. Meaning, I’m going to be surfing through my archives and reading what I’ve written in the past year. And since I can’t think [...]"
recap of my last few days. it’s boring. sorry.
January 09, 2007
"Hi. I’m still around, I promise. I’ve just been busy with boring stuff that doesn’t really give me much to blog about. For example, fighting off a cold. Kinda boring. It involves me this past weekend, forcing myself to stay on the couch and rest my pregnant butt rather than do all of the things on [...]"
all baby, all the time
January 13, 2007
"Lots of baby and pregnancy-related stuff in the past few days! First, on Thursday I went to have my glucose screening. Overall it wasn’t too bad, except I was so tired right after I drank the orange sugary stuff. I seriously could have laid down and taken a nap right there in the waiting room, [...]"
who doesn’t love a graph?
January 16, 2007
"It’s that time of year again: tax season! I didn’t used to have to do much to prepare for the tax thing, but now with a business there’s so much to keep track of. And my high-quality accounting system (read: an Excel spreadsheet that is in SERIOUS need of reorganization) makes it even more of [...]"
bummer of the day
January 17, 2007
"I got a nice surprise at Christmas and received a bit of a bonus from a client of mine (one that I do a lot of contract work for) For a while now, I’ve been wanting to buy some new dishes, but could never rationalize the expense ‘just because’. So I thought- the perfect time! [...]"
taking five
January 22, 2007
"I have work I need to do, work I HAVE to do, but my brain. won’t. work. So instead, I’m watching Felicity Season 3 on DVD and feeling my baby girl kick inside my belly. It’s way more fun. More posts like this: 3am is just not pretty. December 28, 2006 pregnancy is so glamorous February 7, 2007 35 weeks [...]"
don’t mess with a hormonal pregnant woman
January 25, 2007
"So do you remember those dishes I ordered? The ones that came last week, broken? We took them back to the store last week one evening (Dan had to carry them in for me, ’cause ya know, I’m all big-bellied and everything) and they accepted the return and ordered me a new box that would [...]"
you catch more flies with honey
January 26, 2007
"I called the main customer service number for Bed Bath and Beyond to tell them about the second go-round of my Broken Plate Saga. First, I got disconnected after going through 2 menus of choices. GRR. Then, I finally got through to someone. I took a deep breath to calm myself down because, really, I didn’t want [...]"
you know you’re jealous you missed the party
"What did you do on your Friday night? Me…? Well… I reorganized my kitchen cabinets, that’s what. Dan and I were arguing over who was the bigger dork: me for what I was doing, or him for watching a nature show. Do we know how to party or what? You may remember a few weeks ago when [...]"
conversation snippets
January 27, 2007
" Jen: I think I’ll get a shower now, maybe the hot water will feel good on my hips. They’ve really been bothering me today. Sometimes it feels so good to let the hot water hit them and loosen them up. Dan: And let the hot water cascade over your moo-ness. Jen: I’m hungry! Why [...]"
babies!
February 01, 2007
"My long-time friend Kristy just had her 3rd baby last night! A little boy, named Caleb Lindsay (’Lindsay’ is a family name) He was 8lbs… she pushed a few times and he was born 7 minutes after they broke her water. Both are doing well :) Hearing this news of course makes me think about [...]"
geeks of all species
"I love this picture. heeeee. More posts like this: googling ourselves August 15, 2005 happy christmas December 24, 2007 new kitchen November 4, 2007 pictures and glasses and stuff September 14, 2006 crossing crap off my list February 7, 2006 "
baby names
February 02, 2007
"No, we didn’t pick one yet. And no, we’re not going to share our final choice with anyone until after the little darling is born (sorry, Corrie!) But, Janet posted a comment yesterday mentioning having a baby naming contest on my blog. I’m not sure how a contest would work since we’re being all secretive [...]"
excuse me while I crash
February 05, 2007
"First, you guys are doing great with the name suggestions- I’m loving this game! Some of them we’ve actually been considering already, others we were considering before but nixed them for various reasons, etc. But yay- keep ‘em coming! In other news, I had a really long day today and I’m exhausted. So instead of a [...]"
oh my aching pelvis
February 06, 2007
"As I mentioned yesterday, the past few days have been crazy. Or at least, crazy for what I’m used to lately. Friday night we went out on a ‘date’ (we figure we’d better get them in now while we still can!) We had dinner at Thai Place and then headed to some furniture stores in [...]"
pregnancy is so glamorous
February 07, 2007
"Y’all. This is embarrassing. But. I have a tiny scab on the inside of my belly button. And by inside, I really mean what used to be the inside, and has now become more like the outside of my belly button as I get further into my pregnancy. And that sensitive skin that’s been hidden from the world [...]"
my man is hot.
February 09, 2007
"I saw this on Laura’s blog and thought it might be fun- I talk so much about myself (like most of us narcissistic bloggers do!) that I thought it might be nice to talk about my husband, my best friend.. and the one who knocked me up ;) All About My Man (Dan the Man!) His age: [...]"
good thing about pregnancy
February 12, 2007
"Eating an entire box of Kraft macaroni and cheese for lunch all by yourself. And really? No guilt. More posts like this: good points October 26, 2006 and it begins November 19, 2006 good and bad: this week so far August 26, 2008 cop-out Friday! September 5, 2008 recipe: fruit pizza July 8, 2007 "
recipe: crockpot lasagna
February 13, 2007
"Originally, I thought about making this a weekly thing, maybe call it ‘Recipe Sunday’ or ‘Recipe Tuesday’ or whatever day I decided. But… I realized that a) I’d never be able to stick to that and b) I’d never be able to stick to that. So, instead, I’ll plan on posting recipes when I think [...]"
happy heart day
February 14, 2007
"After you’ve been together for over 10 years, married for almost 5, and 8-months pregnant, Valentine’s Day just doesn’t mean the same thing as it did when you were in high school. And really- that’s okay with us. This morning, Dan woke me up at 7:15 with a phone call from inside our garage, his voice [...]"
the numbers don’t lie
February 16, 2007
"Tax time and the New Year always makes me want to get organized financially and get a ‘plan’. Even if we don’t necessarily NEED a plan, I want to make one. Because I’m kinda anal about money. This year was fantastic as far as our finances go. My business has done so well, especially since July [...]"
reality starts to set in. and all is okay.
February 19, 2007
"This past weekend, we spent some time with our friends who just had their third child 2 weeks ago. A little boy, and goodness he was precious! I was a little bit anxious about being around a baby right now. Which might sound weird, since I’m just 7 weeks away from having one of my own. [...]"
nature’s preparation
February 21, 2007
"All of my life, I have been a Champion Sleeper. I can sleep AWESOMELY. I rarely have had a sleepless night or any form of insomnia, except for if I had a really bad cold or something. And sleeping in- something I looooooooove to do. Suddenly, with a little over 6 weeks to go until this [...]"
work whining
February 22, 2007
"Why don’t people quite get the concept of ‘approval’? Doesn’t that mean: ‘We like it, that’s great! No more changes! Move forward!’? It doesn’t mean that 6 months later when your site is ready to launch, you can decide on a whim that you want to move the navigation over there, and maybe have different colors, [...]"
