24 Weeks! Six Months!

Holy cannoli (sp? anyone?), where is the time going??? I’m six 28-day months, and 3.75 real months away from my due date! Wow.
So apparently, we’ve moved away from comparing my anatomy to foods, and am comparing my anatomy to sports objects. My uterus is now the size of a soccer ball. A soccer ball, people! [...]

23 Weeks!

Wow. Last summer I took our fourth year research course and was placed in the NICU at McMaster University Medical Centre’s Children’s Hospital. Some of the babies were really, really teeny. Some of those babies were the size that June Bug is right now – 1 lb.

Raising the next generations of Christians

Crystle and I were talking the other night about how one goes about training up children in the faith. We were talking about how there’s two schools of thought on the subject:

“Age-appropriate” children’s messages based on Biblical truths, like devotional books.

22 Weeks!

Otherwise entitled, “Wow, this blog must be really boring to those of you who used to read it for un-baby-related content”. I do apologize! If it weren’t for the weekly belly updates, I’m not sure the blog would be getting much attention at all right now. I’m a wee bit too busy!
With that said, I’m [...]

21 Weeks!

I’m over half-way there!
This week, our baby’s getting bigger! June Bug weighs 3/4 of a pound and is 10.5 inches long head-to-toe – picture the size of a large banana … except with a head and arms and legs and such. His/her eyelids and eyebrows are fully formed and he/she is developing his/her sense of [...]

I guess I should update?

Maybe about something non-baby related?
So, we’ve been in our new house for about a week and a half. The move went VERY well – we had so much help we could hardly believe it!! We are truly blessed to have all the friends we did come and help us out.

The proof is in the pudding!

Well, I’m officially 20 weeks pregnant! I can’t believe the pregnancy is half-way over … it seems like just yesterday we got a positive pregnancy test! But alas – it wasn’t just yesterday, it was 16 weeks ago! This week, my uterus comes even with my belly button and more pop-outing occurs! By the end [...]
