A big clue

I just got a phone call from my doctor’s office; my C-section is on September 22nd at 7:30am with Dr. Gabel, the OB who delivered Nicky.  I was originally hoping to get a 9:30am appointment so that I could get Nicky up in the morning and tell him about what would happen that day [...]

A good quote

Big-boy room

We put the finishing touches on Nicky’s big-boy room this evening – he’s all set to move in!  He had such a great nap in there this afternoon and told Chuck that he wanted to sleep in there tonight, so we got all ready to get him in there and he decided to go [...]

Vacation

Chuck took a bunch of vacation days this week, so we’ve been busy but having a great time!  On Monday, we went to the park before I had to work that evening.  On Tuesday, we enjoyed a fun day late morning/early afternoon day in the sun at Gruener Beach by Nicky’s pool.  Yesterday, Chuck [...]

Facebook username

Here is a link to my Facebook site; here is a link to Chuck’s.  I think you still have to be a member to see these pages, but we have been using them more for regular updates than our blog site.  Chuck tried to get a feed from our status updates to appear on [...]

Forgot to mention

I forgot to blog about a pretty big thing that we did a couple of weeks ago – Chuck turned around Nicky’s car seat!  We’ve had a few questions about why we didn’t do it earlier, but the recommendations are changing and it’s being recommended that toddlers stay rear-facing as long as possible, even [...]

New songs

Nicky has added a couple of new songs to his repetoire:

Skinnamarink Where is Thumbkin? Theme from Baby Songs

It’s weird…he just starts singing these songs out of nowhere – at mealtime, in the bathtub – and it’s very cute!

I LOVE parsnips!

Seriously, I don’t know why these aren’t more popular – YUM!  I made this recipe last night; super easy and very tasty and good for you!  Yay, leftovers!

Smarty-pants

Wendy brought over an awesome fridge toy for Nicky a couple of weeks ago – it has a main part that you can put each individual letter in and it’ll play a song for each letter. Tonight, he had the letter “M” in there and I asked him what “M” is for – he [...]

Ethan’s Angel

When Nicky was first diagnosed with his milk allergy, I happened to be talking to a customer at the pharmacy who mentioned that her son is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts.  She really gave me a lot of support and answered a lot of questions I had in the beginning.  Her son’s allergies [...]
