Book It! – Birthday Books
My birthday is in April, so it’s usually a great month for books. After all, what better excuse for a reader to pick up some new and beautiful books than her birthday? I actually wasn’t given any books for my birthday this year- probably due to my lack of shelf space right now. But I…
Read MoreOne Month
Mildred turned 1 month old on Monday. It seems like we were just in the hospital with her a week ago, but that might just be because I’ve probably only gotten a week’s worth of sleep in the last month. I should probably just be glad that I’m not Milli. She’s been having tummy troubles…
Read MoreI Need a Nap
Somehow Mildred manages to sleep all the time, but I still don’t manage to get a nap, or any sleep at all, unless someone else is here to watch her. It’s like she knows that I have laid down and she doesn’t like it. Fortunately, there are lots of people who want to hang out…

Read MoreWelcome Spot!
Today was supposed to be a post about my 37th week of pregnancy, however baby Turner, henceforth known as Mildred Jane, decided to show up early. My water broke about 8:45 on Thursday night, and Mildred was born on Friday morning. And because everyone always wants to know, the official statistics were as follows: Mildred…
Read More36 Weeks
We are at 36 weeks, and it feels like a miracle that I’ve survived being pregnant this long. With all of the issues we have had in the last trimester, it’s nice to be at what is considered “full term.” That way Spot can come any time now, and it would be perfectly OK. According…
