Squeaker
So yeah, basically I’ve become fond of the nickname “Squeaker” lately.
I’m going to visit both sets of my grandparents today. It will be our first big excursion, as they both live about an hour away. I must bring lots of diapers- I learned the hard way last...
New music is good…
I realized that part of the reason I’ve been feeling so stir crazy these past few days (aside from being indoors with a baby for the past week and a half) is that I haven’t heard nearly enough music. I’m used to listening to music at work, in the...
It’s so cold outside!
Amazing.
Feb 17th:
It was soooo gloomy that day. Then all of the sudden the sun came out- just for a second.

Maya loves Animal...
Ch-ch-ch-changes…
Well what a week, eh? It’s nothing like I expected it to be, and yet it all fits right into place in my mind. Everything about my life right now is a happy replication of labor- the constant acceptance and repetition, the tired reluctance and then the joy of...
More :)
I’m up, and I have a little energy, so I figured I would update a little. It’s been an intense and amazing couple of days, and I can’t help but feel overwhelming gratitude sitting here in the quiet of the morning- my house a wreck, my body sore and...
I’m a momma!
Vera Jean Yoder was born at 12:05 this morning on the kitchen floor. 🙂
She weighs 8 lbs 10 oz, and is 19 inches long. She has a head full of dark hair (from her daddy I’m sure) and is just amazingly beautiful. I was in labor for a...
Labor update
Just to let everyone know, I’m still in labor. It has been a long day and a half, and my contractions slowed so I could get some sleep (which I actually did!). I’m am trying to stay relaxed and calm even though I am pretty tired overall. I have...
Could this be it?
I’m just up at 6:30am on a Saturday morning for fun…
Not!
I don’t really know what labor feels like, but I couldn’t sleep through the uncomfortable feeling that was rushing like a wave from my back around to my belly. It feels different this morning. I woke up at...
It’s hard to think up a subject line all the time…
Every time I try to do something remotely physical (i mean, like bend over to grab a spoon off the floor), my whole belly gets as hard as a rock and I feel like I can barely move for a minute. I don’t really mind except I keep trying...
February!
This year is already flying by. This is the month. THE month.
My coworkers threw me a lil thing. It was really nice and low-key, just how I would have wanted it. It made me realize how much my boss actually knows me. I’ve been there...
