We had our San Francisco baby shower over the weekend and one of the games our hostesses organized was "Guess the Baby Name". Those who follow this blog, and who toured our nursery, saw a big hint which is that the name starts with the letter "M". We had some great guesses but the one… Continue reading Week 34: M is For… Michigan?

Week 31: Rolling with the Punches
I'm literally and figuratively "rolling with the punches" these days. Baby B is kicking more aggressively than ever and while it doesn't hurt, it's a bit more uncomfortable than the adorable flutters and taps from a month ago. I like to imagine Baby in his own swimming pool doing laps, practicing his flip turns, and… Continue reading Week 31: Rolling with the Punches

Week 22: Mind, Body, Baby
5 months down, 4 to go, and feeling great! I love pregnancy; it's seriously fascinating that there's a little human being growing inside of me. And I feel this crazy bond to my belly; talking to it, rubbing it, nurturing it with healthy foods and dousing it in lotion. And now that we're starting to… Continue reading Week 22: Mind, Body, Baby

Week 19: Baby B Would Like to Facetime…
It's been about two months since we last did a Baby Facetime, so we didn't exactly know what to expect. But wow, medical technology is amazing! We got to see the baby's fingers, toes, thumping heart, spine, brain, lungs, ears, mouth, nose, you name it! (We just looked away when they were zooming in to… Continue reading Week 19: Baby B Would Like to Facetime…
Week 18: Goodbye, Pants
I'm 18 weeks pregnant which unofficially represents the "I hate pants" phase. They dig into my expanding belly and make sitting, running and even standing uncomfortable. I've been getting creative this week with hair ties to extend the waistbands or just letting the top button free. But it's officially time for summer dresses and those… Continue reading Week 18: Goodbye, Pants
Week 17: The Honeymoon Period
As of yesterday I'm 17 weeks pregnant which means Baby B is just about 4 months along and the size of a pomegranate. Wait... I'm 4 months pregnant?! No way. I have a hard time believing that! It feels like yesterday that we found out about Baby B on that Easter Sunday/April Fools Day. Time… Continue reading Week 17: The Honeymoon Period
