ok, so sometimes i read people.com. so sue me. it’s disgusting and lame, etc, etc. i get all that. but THIS ARTICLE just made me happy in all kinds of different ways, and i wanted to share it. that she referred to her fertility issues as a “broken belly” is sweet and funny but speaks …

we went to this vegetarian convention thing yesterday and i was standing in line waiting for some vegan pastry or other and i overheard the two women behind me saying, “look how huge she is! she HAS to be carrying more than one in there. and she hasn’t even dropped yet, so she still has …
i slept something like 25 hrs over the course of this weekend. which was wonderful and mostly peaceful. but, as with the entirety of this pregnancy, i often have weird, vivid dreams. the other night, it was a nightmare. i had my first labor-associated dream and it was that i suspected my water had broke, …
costco cake commemorating my reaching (and exceeding, as any good overachiever would) 200lbs! had my ob appt yesterday and everything is grand- baby is healthy and growing, i am healthy and growing (clearly) and i am embracing these crazy changes of scale with peace of mind. mostly. 🙂 my coworkers have been waiting for this …
“Babies”…i can’t recall if i’ve already blogged about this movie, but i’ma gonna repeat myself here if i did. it’s cute. it’s insightful. you should watch it. it follows families from san francisco, namibia (africa), mongolia, and tokyo during the first year of their newborn’s life. fascinating the difference between cultures in every day care …

i got to spend all of yesterday cuddling on babies. the first, an almost 3 month old tiny female blessing with now frequent smiles lighting up the room and little round cheeks you just can’t not touch. and then a 2 1/2 year old with even ROUNDER and more fluffy cheeks poking out around his …
i’ve said a lot during this pregnancy that this will be my last. win or lose, this is it for me and knocked-up-ed-ness. so we may as well experience all parts of it. i’m taking any additional tests that i’m offered/required to take with enthusiasm, so that i don’t miss any part of the total …
saturday was our big day out registering for baby stuff. we both braced ourselves for a long day and lots of debates (robb=hippie, me=cheap)…but we actually fared extremely well. since we’re also making a lot of changes to the house right now, we started the day at ikea (if you haven’t been, it’s like 3 …
