A sobering realization

Monday, June 30th, 2008

This weekend, GTB and I hosted a small BBQ for a few friends. As I made the pre-party run for bags of ice, I fantasized about the beer I would crack open as soon as I got home. It was hot as fuck outside, and a nice cold brewsky was just what the doctor ordered. […]

Yeah, well, your mama dresses you funny!

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

During the first part of my pregnancy, I heard and read that when you finally sport a noticeable baby bump, the world treats you differently. Men give up their subway or bus seats for you. People hold doors open. Strangers smile while staring at your stomach. For the most part, I’ve found this to be […]

Sunday Snarkways

Friday, June 20th, 2008

As a Portlander, I strive to be as green as possible. And, for the most part, I think I do OK. Not great, but OK. GTB and I carpool to work as often as possible (which is usually at least three times a week). We only drink out of reuseable water bottles. We recycle way […]

28 Weeks

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Now officially in my third trimester, there’s no hiding the pregnant. Also, hot pink…not the best disguising color. Not that I’m interested in disguising anything at this point.

Hooray!

Monday, June 16th, 2008

This past Friday, GTB and I went to the doctor where I was handed a little bottle of orange drank. Drinking what tasted like flat Orange Crush was the first step in a test to determine whether or not I’ve got gestational diabetes. Apparently, they test pretty much every 28-weeks pregnant woman for it now. […]

One year

Monday, June 9th, 2008

One year ago today, I made my hair all big, put on an ivory dress, and promised to love GTB for the rest of my life in front of my friends and family. I don’t want to get all smooshy and say it was the happiest day of my life, but it was a pretty […]

Tea with Clooney

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

One of the best things about being pregnant is the vivid dreams I have. Sometimes they are strange, sometimes they are beautiful. Sometimes, they are a brilliant mix of the two. For example, last night, I dreamt that George Clooney took me to afternoon tea at a bed & breakfast on the coast and then […]

Little linebacker?

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

Last night, GTB and I went to visit some friends who had their first baby on May 23. She is adorable, and tiny. She weighed exactly 7 pounds when she was born and being only a week old, she isn’t much bigger than that now. As we drove home, GTB kept talking about how little […]
