Yes, there is a reason that it has been a few weeks since my last post. No, it's not because the watch dropped in the toilet stopped working and I lost track of time for days on end. I AM expecting again. The nausea and end-of-the-day weariness have kept me from the office most nights, except to check email quickly and then retire to the couch again. I have seriously fallen asleep mid-conversation with Braden at 8 pm . . . and also fell asleep during my women's group on Wednesday nights as we were praying! (Horror!) Mornings are great, but by dinner time I'm just DONE.
So now, in our family, we are having nightly belly comparisions (to see whose is the biggest.) Again, this is why I love preschoolers: we have to check EVERY night, because you NEVER know, one of these nights Rhyle (the dark horse) might actually have the largest belly.
I've complained a few times, I must admit, when Livia has climbed me, using my stomach and chest as "outcroppings." When I tell her that she's hurting me she is very concerned and wants to lift my shirt to "check baby." (This might be really cute except then she usually touches my belly button- and I really detest having my belly button touched. And she knows it.)
Now you have my excuse. It's a great one, in my opinion.

It is a good excuse, Calli. And congratulations! You and Braden are gifted parents, and God is blessing you immensely.
Hey, Calli. COngrats on expecting! I came across your blog today from my blog stats. I didn't know you have a blog...I will subscribe to the rss feed so I can keep up with you all. By the way, what is the "what's cooking" section? And do you have a recipe for wholly granola? I have a granola recipe, but quite frankly, I think it is too sweet. I know, how can anything be too sweet? Well, my tastebuds have changed alot since we started eating better and I can't tolerate real sweet things. Anyways...looking forward to hearing more from you!!! Take care! ps...did you know that your blog is not set up to have receive comments unless someone has a google or blogger account? It might limit you in people commenting, which would limit the conversation. There should be a setting somewhere to change it.
