Week 13 - The End (Of Nausea) Is Near

Week 13!

This week should be near the end of the queasy phase. Things have been going pretty well.  Uneventful for the most part.  But I am hungrier and that is a good sign!

According to What to Expect, Shrimp is growing fast, the size of a peach (or this #13 billiard ball) and the head is half of the body size! And baby's vocal chords are developing. Wonder if Shrimp will be a talker...

I am starting to "thicken" if you look closely.  By that I mean no hips and it looks like I ate a whole bowl of spaghetti by myself.  Maybe in the next month there will be something to show for  in a photo!

We are trying to decide what to do in our house next, as far as getting ready for baby.  There is still a lot of work to do.  The kitchen counters need to be re-grouted (germs!) and the nursery needs to be emptied and painted.  

We are also pondering how to decorate the nursery.  We are leaning towards a more neutral decor (gender neutral that is).   Like green or yellow walls, or a forest scene with Winnie-the-Pooh stuff.  But we still might wait until we find the gender and go "all in" for a boy or girl room.

Most recent favorite food:  Spinach (who knew?)

Most recent craving: Jalapeno burger

Still can't eat: Fruit - makes me feel HORRIBLE (but then again, I never really liked fruit anyway -- too sugary for my taste!)

Strange behavior: Forgetfulness and feelings of dread ("Are we ready for this life changing event?")  My friends say that is normal and they felt it too.  Better to be realistic than naive I guess.

    mmmmm, jalapeno burger.

    What about that number 12 ball next to it? Also the same size?
    But probably not the same as the cue ball on a bar table since those a little smaller so they go to the other return slot.

    I think #13 is a bit bigger than #12. But everyone's different so who knows! The peach was taken at any rate! :) However, this billiard ball is still a little green.

April and May....Boy am I behind!

All Smiles....Look What I Can Reach! Cruisin' Another Type of Crusin' Wow, the Spring got away from me, as you can tell by the long time between posts! We have not felt like we had a lot going on, but I guess we have! Jack is doing great, and his potty training is pretty much finished (as much as it can be for a 3 year old I guess).  We visited a few Pre-Schools and finally decided on one, and luckily they had room for us! It is really hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Jack is going to start school - even if it's only two mornings a week! He also got his first bicycle (Lightning McQueen, of course) and he is learning the ropes of riding it. Our neighborhood has a lot of hills so he kind of prefers riding at the State Park where the road is a bit less up and down.  Actually, all three of us got new bicycles and we hope to start to ride them as a family once Logan is old enough to wear a helmet and ride in the pull-behind. Baby Buzz (yes,  ...

New Ride!

Well, it's no Mustang, but it is black! What we got was a 2009 Pontiac Vibe. At any rate, we both like it. It was a reasonable price for a smaller sized family-with-lots-of-stuff car. It served the purpose of "ease of child seat access" and "can load many groceries plus a dog" into the back.  (You should have seen us try to get the rocking chair into the Mustang.)  It also serves the gas economy purpose (31/28 advertised) and was not a big SUV, or a minivan. I have never been fond of driving huge cars or trucks! It looks like a five door hatchback to us, but I guess it is technically listed as a "wagon." Some things go full circle, eh Mom?  Maybe a bit cooler than the Corona Wagon we drove in Texas, or whatever it was called.  Sorry the photo isn't super great, it's raining and cold so I pretty much didn't want to go out of the garage.  There are some more photos on our Flickr account (see link to right "other photos...")   It act...

4th of July and Other Buzz News

Greetings to all! I have finally had time to upload some more photos for Flickr and the blog and can keep you up to date on the Buzz around our water cooler, so to speak. :-) We've had a busy 2 months! Nonie and Papa Sudar came to visit for a few weeks at the end of June and through the 4th of July. We all had a good time. We spent a few days down in Walsenburg with most of the Tressells which Jack really enjoyed. And we really enjoyed the small break from constantly watching Jack! Thanks everyone!! Catch Papa! Bubbles in Walsenburg Cousins Making Cookies! Since we've been back we have been working on getting all the stuff in our garage either back into the basement, into the trash, or ready for donation. Our goal is simple: both cars inside by winter. Hopefully we can make it happen! So far things are going pretty well with Baby Buzz. We went to the doctor's last week for an ultrasound because I was measuring small (just like last time). This time I guess Buzz is a li...
