Updating via blackberry We are on today for a 10:15am! Kristajana looks cute in her little smock. 🙂

By Casey Kristjana was up most of the night with contractions.   Not only was I certain that the baby would be born today, Saturday, we were both pretty sure she was going into full blown labor (not the partial stuff she has been dealing with for 6 weeks).   The way my wife was […]

First off, thanks to my sweet and gracious hubby for the guest posts over the last few days.   I needed a break! So.  I’m having a c-section after all. You see, on my birthday Wednesday, Casey found the detailed journaling he did of the night Kenny was born, and printed it out, thinking that […]

Hello all.   If you haven’t visited in a couple of days, I am giving Kristjana a little rest, and recapping the days just prior to Kenny’s birth.   When I last left you yesterday, I had gone to bed on Thursday evening September 2nd 2005, feeling awful, 24 hours after stepping on a nail […]

Though we have been pretty casual about crabbing the last four summers of living here, this summer, Casey has decided that we are going to feast on the bounty of the Bay.   He has been diligently manning the traps, feeding the daily catches and transferring them to a holding tank, and driving far out […]

As I sat down to write a post tonight, I had in my hand a partially eaten Good Humor ice cream bar.   Dudley, ever hopeful, ever patient, sat to my left with his head resting on my left arm, gazing wistfully at the frosty dark chocolate and slowly melting ice cream.   I spoke […]

I have 11 days before my official due date… 5 if I had kept my scheduled c-section.   Now is the time that every cramp, every dizzy spell, every twinge brings on the question… is this it?? Two nights ago while making dinner, I started seeing spots in my vision.   Then my whole right […]
