32.5 week belly pic

We have been posting belly pics every 4 weeks or so and I believe we are a little late on this one.  I know, I know, you’ve been waiting on pins and needles to see it.  Well, here it is.

I know I’ve got a bit of a crazy look on my face, but that picture [...]

Since I work with men all day long I’ve realized that men are sometimes at a loss for words to pregnant women and they just say stupid things.  I have two examples from today.  One man said to me “are you overeating or are you pregnant?”  Hardy har har.  I responded by saying “a little [...]

There are a couple of birthdays I want to acknowledge this morning.
My brother Justin is turned 32 yesterday! I just saw Justin while back in MPLS for Thanksgiving. His son Connor was baptized, and behaved about as well as any young child could. I’ll be calling you for fatherly advice in a few short weeks [...]

Please bow your head in silence for Kevin DuBrow, frontman for Quiet Riot. DuBrow was found dead in his home in Las Vegas over the weekend.
I leave you with the words of Blackie Lawless, lead singer of W.A.S.P.

The Royal A-hole is back

I just got an email that Ryan Adams is coming back to the NW. The nerve of that a-hole! To come back so soon.
He’s playing in Salem, bypassing Portland and making his way up to Seattle. I don’t blame him. I’m sure he’d get booed right out of town if he showed his greasy haired, [...]

During dinner the subject of Wilco came up, which, if you have been reading would know I’ve got an uncontrollable appetite for everything [...]

Baptism & Beers

The title of this post is a bit deceiving as we did attend a baptism, and we did have beers, but not at the same time. I’m not sure that would have gone over well in the church if we had walked in with a sixer, cracked one open and watched our nephew, Connor, be [...]

Turkey Hangover

I didn’t think it was possible, but I believe I’m suffering from a turkey hangover. I don’t believe I’ve eaten that much in one sitting EVER. Heather and I flew back to Minneapolis to have Thanksgiving at her mom and Gary’s. The house is filled to the gills with family, including an abundance of little [...]

The Swaddling Jedi

Much to my disappointment, we had our first Baby Care Basics class. I thought this was our first week of breastfeeding class, but apparently that doesn’t start for another 2 weeks. So, Baby Care Basics it is. This 2 week class helps first time parents understand some basic techniques and practices once you get the [...]

10 weeks and counting…

As of yesterday we are officially 30 weeks along. We only have approximately 10 weeks (2 1/2 months or 69 days) remaining until that little bundle of joy enters this world - hopefully not screaming, too gooey or on Super Bowl Sunday. I had a little talk with our daughter about football just a few [...]
