28 Weeks! 7 Months!
Wow – I’m in the home stretch – my third trimester! I can hardly believe just how quickly my pregnancy has flown. I’m sure it’s got something to do with my ridiculous work/school schedule, and it’s really been quite nice for this last two semesters to fly be so quickly. But yeah. Third trimester! It [...]

Soggy lard bread … and a new toy!
My parents were lovely enough to invite Brad and I home for Easter dinner – it was wonderful!!! My mom made turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and cauliflower and broccoli with cheese sauce … and, of course gravy. Mmmm … it was sooooo yummy!! I realized, though, that stuffing is the nastiest thing ever – soggy [...]

Work Update

She has written me a note that I am to go on ‘light duties’ (meaning no lifting over 10 lbs) as of April 15 – I’ll be 30 weeks along. That means [...]

Product Review – Henckels Knives
It’s been a while since I’ve done a review of anything, so I figured I’d give ‘er! Last night when we were out for dinner, my parents gave me a bread knife to complete my set of Henckels knives.
These are no ordinary knives, people. These are KNIVES. Having grown up only with Henckels knives, I [...]

Surprise!
Here’s a full profile pic of me from tonight! I *heart* my belly!
Today, I actually had the day off clinical and we went to Brad’s cousin’s for a debriefing of his other cousins’ missions trip to Haiti.
Or so I thought.
We arrived, and shortly thereafter, balloons were brought out and placed behind myself and his cousin’s [...]
