Six Months

By
Our little Leah is 6 months old!  Ok, and she's not so little.  She weighed in at 17 lbs. 12 oz. and is in the 80th percentile for weight and the 90th for height.  We get good arm workouts carrying her around.  In other news, we are both done with school until the fall and are looking forward to a summer as a family.  We'll post more about the previous hectic weeks soon!  


(Love this one!)

Close Encounters of the Pregnant Kind

By
I have found that something about a pregnant lady makes people say things that they wouldn't normally say. And, then of course, there is also a sudden decrease in personal space awareness. I am almost not surprised anymore when a stranger puts her hand on my belly for a prolonged amount of time in a public restroom while she tells me horror stories about delivering the 15 th of her 17 children. Here are a few of my favorite encounters: 1. An elderly man came over to me at the grocery store in the produce section looking very stern and asked me if I was trying to steal a watermelon.

Persuasive Essays

By
My sixth grade class has been working on persuasive essays this quarter, and one of their first assignments was to write a persuasive piece on what Mr. and Mrs. Dainty should name their baby!
