Gideon and I went to go visit our midwife, Jackie, this afternoon. We have not seen her for about a month and it was nice to catch up.
It is odd to see someone so often, every week there at the end, and then not see them at all. It reminds [...]

[written a couple weeks ago]
I have wanted to write this for some time. Tonight, Gideon and I have our Le Leche League meeting and I thought today would be a good time to start writing our nursing story. Plus, the wee bairn is asleep so there is no time like right now. I want to [...]

Wedding Vows and Sisterly Selfishness
Posted in family on July 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
My brother got married this past Saturday and is now in California with his new wife, enjoying a peaceful honeymoon. It was so fabulous to see everyone and I am incredibly happy for my brother and his new wife, who strive to be the partners to each other that God asks of us when we [...]
Leftovers

Christopher and Sydney got married yesterday. Like any good family wedding, there were many days of drinking and eating filled with family, friends, and hilarity.
Gideon experienced his first Circle of Trust and was toasted heartily by its members. This is a family tradition in which all the drunks at the party (read my uncles and [...]

I should be checking my email, but this is more fun.
Yesterday, Gideon spent his first Sunday in the church nursery. We dropped him off, picked up our parent pager, and headed upstairs to Sunday school. We sat through the entire lesson and then, before the service, I went down to feed [...]
Please don’t be offended

There is an inherent risk that you run when you begin blogging. There is always a chance that something you say will offend somebody. In some cases something you say is misinterpreted and sometimes people simply disagree with your opinions.
A couple days ago I wrote about my grandfather dying. I am still very sad about [...]

Yesterday, Gideon had his 2month check-up and shots. We are more or less following Dr. Sears’ alternative shot schedule, so he received DTaP, HIB, and Rotovirus yesterday. He only cried a little and then whimpered all the way out of the doctor’s office. He breezed through the night with no [...]

First Boat Ride
Originally uploaded by Wandering Eyre
We spent Fourth of July at Lake Limestone, a family tradition since forever. This was Gideon’s first of many things: boat rides(he helped Grandpa drive), fireworks (he slept through them), being outside for hours each day, sleeping in the camper, and drinking with the adults. Just kidding about the [...]
No Longer Holding On

I got a call this morning from my mom. Over the course of the night Jack Miesmer, a man I like to call Grampa, died. He has been battling health issues for many years now, mostly as a result of his obesity. I can’t say this comes as a complete surprise, however, I am not [...]
