Unchartered Territory

October 16, 2008 by Elaine

I recently made my next yearly appointment with my “woman doctor” and since I am a “glass is half full” kind of gal I thought I would look at the bright side of my impending visit. See, I have a favorite part of going to the woman doctor (yes, I know I am freak for…

Labor Day Labor Stories

September 1, 2008 by Elaine

Rocks in my Dryer is hosting a little Labor Day meme carnival. And she ain’t talkin’ just about the holiday. She means L-A-B-O-R as in how did your baby or babies come into the world. Yeah, that kind. Here are the details of my labors. How long were your labors? The B Man – I…

Mother’s Day…

May 13, 2007 by Elaine

…seems to have new meaning 2 days before you are about to have a baby, right?? Oh, I am ready though! Ben’s been running around all day (except when he took a nap – God Bless him!) saying “Happy Mother’s Day!” Tim gifted me with a nicer, newer and smaller version of my current camera…

Waiting…

May 11, 2007 by Elaine

Not too much going on except waiting for the baby to arrive. My last day of work is tomorrow and as most of you know I am not going back to work so I started training my replacement today. It’s kind of crazy to realize that tomorrow’s the last day but after I spent $40…

Only 2 Weeks Away!

May 2, 2007 by Elaine

So… I had an appointment this morning and we were given a date for the c-section and it’s exactly 2 weeks from today – Tuesday, May 15th. It was kind of funny when Tim and I both realized that it was so soon, but trust me, I know I am pretty much ready. Some people…

April Showers Bring May Babies!

April 23, 2007 by Elaine

Okay, so could I add anymore to the blog this weekend? But of course! I had a great diaper shower hosted by my friend Claudia today and it was so nice to get together with the girls and have a lovely time. Claud did a wonderful job of organizing it and had a great craft…

Head’s Up!

March 21, 2007 by Elaine

I don’t have any cute pictures right now, just a baby update. I had an appointment on Monday morning and I met with the nurse practitioner since my doctor is on vacation. She was very nice and I liked her a lot and we had a good talk that turned into talk of a c-section…

SUCCESS!

March 4, 2007 by Elaine

So Ben has made the transition to his new room (with just a little extra push…). On Friday night Tim and I decided to go full throttle and Tim actually took the mattress out of the crib. He did cry a little while about it, but once we laid in his bed with him for…

Sonogram #2

February 3, 2007 by Elaine

Oh, don’t I wish I could have a sonogram everytime I go to the doctor?!! It’s so much fun to see the baby as we did again today. They were able to get a good shot of his face and re-confirm that a boy is definitely on the way! Too bad he’s nameless. Yes, that’s…

It’s A…

January 6, 2007 by Elaine

Alright – big news today!! We found out the gender of baby Alguire, “the sequel” and let’s just say that I was right and Timothy was wrong, okay? So, do you think I am just going to blurt it out?? Please! Most importantly the baby is healthy and looked good on the sonogram. I will…
