Who Takes Food From a Pregnant Lady?
About once a week, maybe a little less, I go with co-workers to a Mexican restaurant not far from our office.
And roughly 90% of the time, I order the same thing: a steak fajita quesadilla, with a side of guacamole and sour cream.
When I go with the guys who work in software security, we usually […]

Tired Little Bullet Points
Jill was recognizable on TV during the Dream game, and she had a really good time. Even though the Dream lost.
Her favorite player, Tamera Young, autographed her sign. Someone else asked her if she was Tamera Young’s mother. Insofar as Jill is female, and technically old enough…I guess it’s a reasonable question.
I really want Noah […]

What Parenthood Is Really Like
Liza: Reaches up and scratches her head. What’s that in my hair? Feels around experimentally. Is that a bandaid?
Jill: Turns, then gets up and comes to look. Starts laughing hysterically. That’s motherhood in a nutshell!
They begin attempting to disentangle the bandaid from Liza’s hair.
Liza: Wait!
Jill: You want me to take a picture?
They both giggle uncontrollably. […]

Go Watch TV
Well, not right now. Tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 pm EDT.
The Atlanta Dream will be playing the Phoenix Mercury on ESPN2 — and Jill will be sitting in the first row, right behind the Phoenix Mercury coaches!
On TV, it’ll probably look a lot like this, only maybe with not quite as much of a close-up.

I Can’t Fight This Surreal Feeling
Last night, as part of the Big Birthday Summer Tour, Jill and I went to see Joan Jett and REO Speedwagon. They were playing at an outdoor venue, Chastain Park, which is simply a unique and extremely Southern institution.
Unlike any other outdoor venue I’ve ever been for a concert, there are no covered seats: the […]

What Is With All The Crying?
Seriously, I almost feel like Noah is reverting to newbornhood.
Yesterday when I picked him up from day care, he sobbed, threw himself on the ground, and didn’t want to leave. He calmed down in the face of bribery, provided kindly (to me) by another toddler parent — but then when the bribe cookies ran out, […]

To Scheduled-C or Not to Scheduled-C
I had my regular prenatal appointment on Wednesday, and am now in the phase of being pregnant where you have to go in for prenatal visits every 2 weeks. This baby’s estimated due date is 10 weeks and 5 days from now.
I promise, I won’t get graphic in this post where I talk about whether […]
