monday morning at the doctor's

2006-02-20T15:50:00.000-05:00

i was a good patient at the doctor's office this morning. i am now over 10 pounds! i won't be able to wear my yellow safari pants much longer...

this is dad talking to me while we wait on the results of my bloodwork, which was good, thank you very much!

it feels like spring today. mom & i went out in the backyard because we had cabin fever!

dr. chad

2006-02-14T14:44:00.000-05:00

dr. chad is lending his expertise at the hematologist's office today. my bloodwork looked pretty good, and my bilirubin is completely normal!

my due date

2006-02-09T13:17:00.000-05:00

today is my due date, february 9th. happy due date birthday to me! as of now, i am a full-term baby. of course, i weigh over NINE pounds and mom is starting to appreciate the fact that i came early....

2006-02-07T15:27:00.000-05:00

we don't sleep a whole lot lately, but sometimes mom and i get to close our eyes for a minute!

2006-02-07T15:16:00.000-05:00

today i went to my hematologist. since it takes awhile, they give us a room with a bed. we can all lie down and take a break while we wait for my bloodwork results. daddy and i went to sleep. my blood results were good and i didn't need a transfusion this time!
also, the nurse weighed me and i was nine whole pounds! that's a lot, considering that my due date is not until later this week!

love that boppy!

2006-02-02T17:33:00.000-05:00

i look so cute when i'm sitting in my boppy pillow. it is perfect for helping me sit up a little and be comfy while hanging out with mom and dad in the floor. i think mom likes the boppy even more than me, 'cause i look so darn cute in it!

2006-02-02T17:12:00.000-05:00

last night i took my very first "real" bath in my new baby bathtub. at first it was a little strange, then i realized the warm water was somewhat relaxing. afterwards, my hair was frizzy.

mmmmmm.....

2006-01-31T16:48:00.000-05:00

going home

2006-01-31T16:28:00.000-05:00

hooray! on saturday, the doctor finally said that i could go home for the first time. i got to ride in a car for the very first time ever. it was no big deal. i slept for most of the way. then mom carried me into my very own house and my newly decorated room, which didn't really excite me. i got to see my cats, too. they pretended not to notice me, and i extended the same courtesy. unfortunately grandma missed my grand entrance; she got lost coming home when she tried to buy lunch for everyone. she's not from these parts.

eliot sure looks mad!

smiling

2006-01-24T14:52:00.000-05:00

i love to smile. i probably don't even know what it means yet, but everyone loves it and it makes me look absolutely adorable. maybe i am having a particularly funny dream. or maybe i am laughing at my weirdo parents. in any case, i look very cute when i smile.

The baby is born

2005-12-26T13:28:00.000-05:00

our child has been born. after 4 weeks of bleeding on bedrest in the hospital it was finally time to take the little guy out. he landed at approximatly 4:45 am on December 26th. 5lbs 4oz of pure cuteness! Unfortunatly he's got to be on the respirator because he could not breathe well because he only gestated for 33 weeks. hopefully he won't have to be on that thing for long. He's got blue eyes and curly brown hair. WE LOVE HIM!

OUR CURRENT READING LIST:

2005-08-19T21:00:00.000-04:00

what to expect when you're expecting (murkoff, eisenberg, hathaway)

this seems to be a staple book, so what the hey? questions and answers, assures you that your symptoms are normal. includes a very strict diet.

your pregnancy week by week (glade b. curtis, judith schuler)

breaks down each individual week by symptoms and size/progress of the baby. makes each week interesting.

the expectant father (armin a. brott, jennifer ash)

explains what the mother is feeling as well as what the expectant father might be through each month of the pregnancy. written by a father who couldn't find any good literature when his wife got pregnant.

the panic-free pregnancy (michael s. broder, md)

this book is a god-send. it dispels myths about pregnancy, and explains what a pregnant woman can actually do/eat as well as what she shouldn't. it cuts down on all the worrying about things like going to the salon or the dentist (both of which are safe during pregnancy, by the way).

the new basics: a-z baby & child care for the modern parent (michel cohen, md)

thank you paul and angela! this book is really good. and entertaining. similar to the aforementioned book, it dispels wives' tales and tells parents of infants and toddlers what they should worry about, and more importantly, what theyshouldn't worry about.

surprise!

2005-08-19T16:52:00.000-04:00

guess what? your favorite couple has an annoucement to make: chad and metta have stumbled upon the beginnings of parenthood. yes, the world will soon (in six months or so) be blessed with one very hip youngster.

stay tuned for every last detail of our trials and tribulations as parents-to-be. hooray!
