Turns out the OB doesn’t have any interest in seeing a newly pregnant person until they are about 10 weeks pregnant. Here began the waiting. How did I fill my time? Well, from weeks 4 to 6 I basically felt like I had a pretty intense case of PMS. I read every article I could find detailing the risk of miscarriage. I… Read more →
Baby Bx…I’m Pregnant?!?
Monday, July 11th 2011. I was half-awake and ignoring my alarm clock as per my Monday usual. I was having this semi-lucid dream about taking a pregnancy test and being pregnant. I’m not really the type of person who gives much credence to lucid dreams. However, I woke up and REALLY had to pee, so I figured ‘why not’? I… Read more →
Baby Bx…Background
When Jason and I got married, we decided our ideal timeline would be to wait 2 years before trying to have kids. Two years for us was May 2011. I was insistent we waited until after our Spring trip home in order to prevent the possibility of me being the sort-of-fat, queasy, pregnant girl for our 22 hour car drive to WI.… Read more →
Summer Update
It’s hard to believe it’s already August! We’ve had a few busy weekends along with a couple downright lazy ones! Jason returned from his convention last month with plenty of stories to share. His convention goodies were housed within a purple sack (like the cloth-type grocery bags). Kiki has claimed the purple bag as her new favorite plaything. She’s sort… Read more →
First 2011 tomato harvested — Stupice Tomato
The very long cold spring greatly delayed our garden this year. The best growing item we have had was the volunteer sunflowers that we weren’t planning to have. The first ripe tomato of the season was ready almost the end of July. My first impression of the little Stupice Tomato is that it has a bit of a sweet flavor… Read more →
Utah + July = Fireworks x 2
Yay for July! I especially have liked this month since moving to Utah because here we have discovered a clever way to get 2 holidays with fireworks into the same month! The first holiday I’m certain you’re all familiar with–Independence Day…a.k.a. The 4th of July. The second holiday Utah has snuck into July is “Pioneer Day”…a.k.a. The July 24th Holiday.… Read more →

What Love looks Like
We were out of town overnight for a wedding. My bag seems to have had the loving attention of a certain small furry while we were gone. Is this what love looks like? Read more →
1st Crop Peas
This spring Jason decided to plant peas along the fence in our back yard along with the usual garden places. He was out there in March, which I considered overly ambitious at the time, since we were just starting our indoor seeds. His ambition has paid off however, as we’ve been eating peas over the past week and tonight we… Read more →
