I can’t believe it’s already Thanksgiving… where did this year go? We certainly have a lot to be thankful for this year. Ada, of course, is at the top of our list. It’s becoming more and more real all the time that we’ll have a baby girl here in no time. Not only will she [...]

Besides the call from the doctor on Friday telling me I’d have to come back in for the three hour glucose tolerance test, the weekend was great. Apparently my glucose levels were “slightly elevated” last Wednesday when I went in, and instead of just letting me off the hook since there’s no HUGE concern, they’re [...]

We went back to the doctor yesterday for a couple things… the glucose test and one last ultrasound. As soon as I arrived (I hadn’t even checked in at the check-in window yet), a young lady also waiting immediately asked how far along I am. “Starting my seventh month now…,” I said. She fired back [...]

That’s right… I said her name! Figured I might as well, since you all know it any way. I guess I just wanted to wait and say “Welcome Ada Mittendorf” for the first time when she finally arrives…. but she was a bit offended that I hadn’t mentioned her name on the blog yet [...]

That’s all I’ve really been able to think about today for some reason. I had lunch with Katy earlier this week, and the cafe we ate at had little samples of these strawberry and blueberry pastries. Man oh man…. they were DELICIOUS. I wanted to buy one so bad, but the things were huge, and [...]

These comparisons crack me up…. so I thought I’d share the baby’s current size with you. This week, she’s about 14 1/2 inches long and weighs a whopping 2 pounds! While this cauliflower is sort of cute, I’d rather see my baby girl bouncing around during the ultrasound next week.
She’s sleeping and waking at regular [...]

Needless to say, it’s been one historic day! I’ve just been in amazement all day, and can’t explain how proud I am of how far we have come that Obama even had a shot at becoming our next president. It’s truly amazing and inspiring to be a part of it all. The Today Show has [...]

Went to the doctor yesterday for a quick check-up, and it turns out we’ve had quite a growth spurt during the last four weeks! Even though I almost broke the scale, I was happy to hear that I’m having a very “normal and healthy pregnancy” so far. Her heartbeat is nice and strong, and she [...]

Well, we ended up getting a handful of trick-or-treaters on Friday. I should’ve taken an exact count, but I’d say it got up to around 10 visits to the door (most visits were multiple children). I guess we live far enough off the main road that folks just don’t want to venture this far into [...]
