A few things I love about Breanne right now…

1. If I ask her to blow her nose, she does! No more trying to sneak up on her and wipe her nose… she does it all on her own. So wonderful.
2. If she falls and gets “hurt,” all it takes is a kiss to make it all better. Even [...]

Our First Fire

So last year Cory’s family moved out to Utah from New Hampshire, and they built a house out here. Their old house had a wood burning fireplace, but their new one is gas, so they didn’t need their pokers and things anymore. Which was great for us, because we bought a house with [...]

New Bad Dream

So this morning when I woke up, it was in the middle of an awful dream. I was in a college level (I think) English course with my 8th grade English teacher, and we were taking a timed reading comprehension test. Now, normally, I aced reading comprehension–those were always my best on the [...]

Red Hair

Mandi asked about Breanne’s red hair–no, Cory’s is definitely not red, and though people like Cory’s mom will tell you otherwise, neither is mine. (She claims it has a red tint to it…I’m just not so sure, though). Breanne does, however, have 5 aunts on Cory’s side, 4 of whom have red(ish) hair. [...]

Breanne doing some of her other favorite things. That include clothing. Sheesh.

Showing me what the chicken does…notice the chicken in her hand.
Sticking out her tongue.
Saying Cheese!
Singing along with “Old McDonald.”
Lining up the monkeys on the bar…obviously they don’t belong in the barrel.

A Picture of our House

So Stu won’t have any trouble figuring out which one it is when he finally comes to visit me…

30% Less Plastic

So we’ve been buying bottled water to drink for a while now (something about the combination of having 80 year old pipes running through our house and the construction going on downstairs), which has been nice. I really enjoy just being able to grab a bottle when I’m running out of the house, or [...]

Because I figured out how to post pictures…

So Breanne loves bathtime…especially with a washcloth. Ahh, the simple pleasures.

She’d stay in the tub all night if she could, I think.

Update to "Why I Was Awake…"

Well, things are looking up…ish. To respond in the order of my original post–
Cory found a stray unisom pill sitting on the counter, so I was finally able to sleep, and I got more pills, so I’m feeling much better. Even with all the puking, though, pregnancy is worth it. I’m so [...]

Blogging Question

So sometimes I want to respond to the comments left on my blog–what is the protocol for that? I mean, do I just leave comments on my own blog? Or do I respond to the person more directly? Especially if it isn’t extremely pertinent to the post–I’m just not sure if I [...]
