Born This Way: Part One
First off, welcome to all the new followers of The Waiting! I really can’t believe I was Freshly Pressed only FOUR DAYS after giving birth. Not going to lie; I have fantasized about getting that WordPress distinction ever since I started blogging but I never really thought it would happen, much less during the most […]
Bebe Becomes Miss C
Miss C was born on March 31 at 11:45 PM, narrowly escaping a lifetime of April Fools birthdays. She was 7 lbs. 3 oz., 21 inches, and sweet sweet sweet. We’re going to take a little break from here for awhile, but I’m hoping to post her birth story in a couple of weeks. Thanks […]
Learning German the Blogging Way
There is nothing more fun than sitting around waiting for your water to break and to start experiencing what could be the most intense pain you have ever felt. And actually wanting it.

Ergo, rather than compile any cohesive thoughts, I just thought I’d hit you up bullet-point style with some random […]
Practical Considerations
Just to refresh everyone, I am pregnant. Very much so. I am constrained to remind everyone of this for two key reasons. One, this is a pregnancy blog and that nomenclature informs the majority of what we do over here. But as the maker of this baby and this blog I have a moral duty […]
I Defer to a Wise Bear
One of the most original and wondrous blogs out here in WordPress Land is Liquorstore Bear. I think it’s pretty evident that when you combine a teddy bear with wine, liquor, and beer recommendations, you’ve tapped into an irresistible corner of the psyche that eluded even Freud and Jung. I have had Miss Bebe for […]
