101 Posts

Aw man! Did you know that my last post was my 100th post?! I was going to do something special, but alas...I guess posting about Xmas with the fam is special, right?  OK, now let's aim for the 201st post I guess. 

Book update while I'm thinking of it; am 2/3 of the way done with A Lion Among Men. Kind of slow going, but my plans of completing the book this weekend were thwarted with Erich's, "I don't have the flu" flu. Whatever, if you're in the bathroom more than not, it's not normal. 

Harper has discovered so many new words and phrases lately, you can really tell she's picking things up from the new room she's in at daycare.  Here are some of her favorites: No, Mama, Daddy, Abbey, Go Away, Please, Bubbles, milk, Elmo, Olivia, BYE!, Hi!, Grandma, Pa-pa and numerous other jibber jabber things we've yet to identify. She loves Elmo right now, and not just Sesame Street, but Elmo. I did get her to settle for Cookie Monster, and she does the most adorable impersonation of him, it's fabulous.
Sorry it's sideways, not sure how to fix that.

Things have been pretty low key, but as always we're starting to get busy with plans.  The month is full of birthday celebrations, a couples shower in York, a playdate in Omaha, and a girl's night. Very excited! And hopefully February and most of March can go quick to get us to March 23rd for the Hunger Games movie release!!! So stinking excited.  If you haven't read them, trust, you need to. If you have a nook, I can loan them to you. It's very easy.

Here are a few pics from my phone. The first few are from this past weekend; Harper was dressed very interestingly. Enjoy and have a good week!

Good Bye First Trimester!

I can't believe that I will be 12 weeks prego next week, it has gone by so fast. It's hellped that I haven't have any sickness, which I am very grateful for. I've kind of have the opposite; I am hungry but nothing sounds appetizing, so as a result I've lost weight. I got a nice little lecture from my dr last week, so I've been trying to eat more, and I think after this weekend, I have to have put on at least 10 pounds! Friday night we had Applebees where we polished off mozzarella sticks, I had a steak and potatoes and veggies, all so tasty! Then today we had Hu Hot for lunch, and just had McDonalds for dinner. I didn't say it was healthy, but it was definitely fattening! I seem to be getting my energy back, there for a while all I wanted to do was sleep. I could still sleep all day, but today I noticed I wanted to do some chores, so I guess that's an improvement. I've also had some lower back pain, which seems to be worse when I sit, which ...

Harper Jay Kant has arrived!

The wait is over! On June 9th, at 5:40 pm, Harper Jay Kant entered the world, weighing 8 pounds, 10 ounces and measuring 20.5 inches long! I am so happy to have her in my arms, as is Erich. During the pregnancy, I made the comment on multiple occasions that I bed I'd pay for it during labor, and boy did I...and so the story goes: Tuesday I began having contractions around noon, but nothing that was progressive or in any order, so we decided to just keep our plan to go in at 7:30 to be induced. I was admitted around 8, and the "ripening" agent was started. I was checked around 12 and had progressed enough to warrant starting the Pitocin (around 1). Contractions began, but I really couldn't feel much; it was a long night and I was too excited to sleep (especially after the nurse commented that with these contractions I could be pushing by 7 that morning...I knew it was too good to be true) so I spent the evening with the Lost crew from Season 2, and waking Erich ...

I never said I was a great correspondant....

..but almost four months between posts is ridiculous! I have no good excuse other than sheer laziness...that and I hate the way blogger posts photos, and it usually irritates me enough to delete my post anyway. So I will try to be better! I'll give some updates of what's kept me so busy, but I have no idea when they happen--I can't even remember what I did last week... Furniture shopping...Erich and I were under some strange impression that we had this wonderful discount at NFM for furniture through Home Real Estate, so we scoured that store at least four times looking for bookshelves,living room sets, entertainment centers, tvs, deep freezes, kitchen tables, hutches...you name it, we looked at it. And we could not find anything we liked, and by the end of the visit everything had merged into one big lump of data; my photos and notes taken throughout the trip looked like another language. And almost every trip ended in us bickering and leaving upset that we couldn't ag...
