Last night I drempt that I was at a family picnic, and someone tossed me not one but TWO Pabst Blue Ribbon beers. I popped one on my enormously pregnant belly, and opened the other one and slugged it back. Someone in the crowd told me it was safe, and I believed them. I woke up in a cold sweat thinking of the damage I could've done to the baby ( Read more... )

Today we are 9 weeks pregnant! According to babycenter.com, the baby is the size of a grape today. Which is pretty amazing, because just a few weeks ago, it was the size of a single poppy seed! It's fascinating how they grow. Today our baby can actually grasp with its itty bitty hands, and is beginning to open its mouth. Its eyes are fully formed, ( Read more... )

My morning sickness seems to have subsided, at least for the time being. If I so much as think about food, I start feeling queasy, but waking up in the morning has been a LOT easier since about 2 days ago. I learned that if I eat something right before I go to bed, it helps tremendously. I’ve never been a big breakfast eater, so I’m getting used to ( Read more... )

Just thought I would pop into the LiveJournal and announce... WE'RE PREGNANT! We are 5w1d today. Just a little grain of rice :)

August 1st is the first ultrasound, will post pics when I get them. We have only told family, close co-workers and close friends so far.

Logan David or Leila Mae will be born at the end of March. Chris and I are super ( Read more... )

This weekend was pretty fun. We left early in the morning for a four hour drive to Pasco, Washington. It was SO HOT up there. Yesterday it got to 102. We went to Sam's graduation and were in the sun for two hours... I got a nice tan :) Jean sat behind Chris and I on the bleachers, so we got the shade of her umbrella plus she occasionally dumped ( Read more... )

Today is June 1st, 2007... do you remember where you were at June 1st, 2002?

We've been graduated for FIVE YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Today is Dunja's last day, so this morning at 8:30 we had Cinnabon cinnamon buns. Now, I like sugar as much as anybody, but cinnamon rolls??!?!!?! I looked them up online and one of those bastards has 300 calories!! You should've seen them, they were so small! Totally not worth it. Tonight we're all going out for drinks after work, it's either eat ( Read more... )

So all of our upper management went to Reno last week, all week, for a conference (yeah, and does Mary ever get to go to conferences? No. But I digress.) When they came back yesterday, they came bearing gifts. Joan brought us these animals that make noise, but better than that, they're SLINGSHOTS. Their necks/arms are made of rubber, and you fling ( Read more... )

Second day in a row. YES! :)

At work, I've been put in charge of the health and fitness part of our Safety Committee. Which means I get to organize our Weight Watchers at Work program (VERY awesome, they come to our office and hold meetings!!), and organize outings. So I've started two programs, Wednesday Morning Walks and Lunchtime in the Park (we' ( Read more... )

K, so first post in....... fifty billion years? :) I let the LJ slip. For, like, a year. I know, my bad. Work doesn't really allow time like it used to to update the old LJ. But I hung out with Gina last night, and we were talking about how GOOD it is to blog.

So. Well first, we actually don't have two dogs anymore. We got a Golden Retriever over ( Read more... )
