Well, after working until the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday, we were able to leave on our scheduled flight Wednesday morning. We flew American Airlines, and were very lucky that our flight wasn’t cancelled- AA cancelled over 100 flights out of O’Hare yesterday due to maintenance on certain planes. We got here around [...]

Weekend recap
Posted in Uncategorized on March 25, 2008 | 1 Comment »
It’s hard to believe that Easter has come and gone! I was saying to S as we walked into church (actually, as we walked into the gymnasium in the school attached to the church- we were part of the overflow crowd again this year!), that it’s hard to believe that next Easter we will have [...]
An orange

I’m told the babe will be the size of a naval orange this Saturday! Finding the right position to sleep in is just starting to be the tiniest bit of a challenge, so I think this weekend I’ll make it my mission to find a body pillow, or will perhaps purchase a Snoogle from Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/2sshu6.

Did I mention yet that I’m lucky?

Okay, so after my last post a friend wrote and asked for my OB/GYN’s name (she- my friend- is not pregnant, she just needed a new doc)– and I happily gave it to her. She just e-mailed to tell me that she called to get an appointment… and was informed that my OB isn’t taking [...]

This whole ‘unbridled enthusiasm’ thing is pretty fun, I have to say. Last night, I came home to a newly-delivered box of maternity clothes that I ordered from JcPenney. I had so much fun trying on the clothes- especially the tops that are definitely too big at the moment, but which will be just the [...]
Wow.

That’s what I thought today when we heard the baby’s healthy little heartbeat again. Wow. What a truly incredible, awe-inspiring sound! The doc said the baby’s heart-rate was just exactly what it should be- in the high 140’s (last time it was a little higher, he/she must have been sleeping this time around!), and that [...]
The weekend: a review

Well, the weekend definitely lived up to our expectations! It started Friday night with S and I having dinner at Cafe Absinthe in Bucktown. We both had yummy halibut (which I was saddened to learn afterwards actually has a medium-level of mercury content… so no fish for 2 weeks for me!), and had a very [...]

So, I decided to take the plunge this morning, and take pictures of ‘the bump.’ Mostly because there really are times where I wonder if I really do have a bump, or if it’s all in my head! So, I figured the best way to go was to take pictures, so that I could see, [...]
Bring on the maternity clothes!

Well, today in Chicago it approached the 50 degree mark… it is only the slightest taste of spring, but I have officially caught the shopping bug! Actually, I was thinking about our trip to Washington, D.C. coming up at the end of the month, and fervently hoping that the weather there will be at least 15 [...]
2nd Trimester, here we come!

Well, the parents came and the parents conquered! The boxes are gone (!) and the apartment looks awesome. It still is a bit messy and needs a couple more hours worth of work, but S and I can’t believe how much we accomplished this weekend, and we have my parents to thank for that. They [...]
