There is a debate - well, can you call a bunch of internet chatter a debate? - about wine drinking during pregnancy and breastfeeding. There are the close-minded-know-it-all-old-school-folks and then there are people who I choose to listen to. During the second and third trimesters of Harrison’s life in-womb I enjoyed probably a glass of [...]
My large maternity shorts are about to fall off me! This is exciting, because when I bought these in March they were a bit too large, but, I was desperate for something else to wear and desperate to NOT go back the mall. But, toward the end of the pregnancy they fit. Snugly.
I am still [...]
*Because I am so severely late in an update - here is a pre-written post - “recipe #2″ (because I assumed I’d be waiting for the little man to show up all week.) This weekend I intend to write the story of Harrison’s birth as well as our first night home - which was INSANE!

+/- 1/8 cup Wheatgerm
+/- 1/8 cup Chopped [...]

The whole being pregnant thing really isn’t my cup of tea… now that we are almost done and we’ve been through almost all stages of it, I can say this with certainty. However, I just grabbed the little dude’s foot. Seriously. He’s kicking and stretching in there and sometimes he just sticks a little foot [...]
LiveMom.com the Austin mom-community blog that we designed and produced a few months ago is up and growing in readership. Catherine, the founder published a pre-baby prediction interview with me last week and after the kid comes we’ll do a post-baby report - to see how naive and embarrassing all my answers were!
