Weekend

We were able to spend the weekend at my family's and attend a reception for a good friend of mine who had gotten married out of state. It was good to see her, and we had a great time visiting with my family! Raemi started saying "Pop Pop" which is what she calls my dad. And my dad watched her...

Day in the Life of Raemi!

I'm doing "a day in the life" at a local mom's board and figured I'd share the pics here too! Good morning all!!! We're off to a great start, Raemi slept 11 hours last night only waking up to nurse once!!! She's napping now so I finally get to share some pics (I tried to earlier but was nursing...

weaning

Raemi seems to be weaning herself, or at least wanting to nurse a lot less than she used to. She generally still gets a pretty good breastmilk breakfast lunch and dinner as she nurses when she gets up, before her nap and before bed. She'll sometimes also nurse 1 time mid-evening and once or twice in...

my dad

I shared a memory about my dad in a recent newsletter for our extended family that was doing a tribute to him for his upcoming 50th Birthday and wanted to share it here as well. In reminiscing about my childhood I have so many wonderful memories of my dad, I could write a novel! Instead, though, I'm...

1 year ago today

My precious baby girl was born! I've never actually written out her birth story, which is sad because there are details I don't remember. But I'll do my best to write it out now! On June 18th 2007 I went in for a checkup because I was scheduled to be induced the next morning (reason being that I had...

Happy Anniversary to me =-)

Yesterday was our 3rd anniversary! It was a great day, Mike took half the day off and got me beautiful flowers (which I'll take a pic of later to share with you all) and we had a "picnic" in our living room (we were gonna go for a real picnic but Raemi decided to take an extra long nap and...

Happy Mother's Day

To all the moms out there...hope your day is wonderful!!! Now, to answer the pressing issue of the day...whom does Raemi look more like, me or Mike? Yikes, that result seems soo crazy to me! I've always thought Raemi looks a LOT more like Mike than me! Yet I tried lots of different pics, and it was nearly...

an update of sorts

So, the nurse called right before closing today to say that Mike's CT Scan didn't show anything. This is somewhat good news in that it pretty much rules out anything too serious, but is also frustrating because we still don't know what's wrong. The nurse claimed that the Dr. will call Mike tomorrow to...

STILL waiting...

Mike finally called himself today because they'd said they would have the results of the scan in 12-24 hours but they never called. But the Dr. (which at this point I'm soo ticked at anyway) decided to go home early today, and apparently there's no one else who can tell Mike waht the results say, so...

waiting...

So, Mike went in for his CT Scan today, and now we have to wait till tomorrow or the next day to hear the results. The stuff he had to drink beforehand made him kinda sick so he's not felt very well all day. We also found out after the first time he went to the Dr. that he has high cholesterol. Since...
