Mommy & John David


I found an old video dated 6/11/09 that I thought was cute. He looks so much younger!!!

Here is John David on Easter morning.

Talking Carl


David's friend told him about an iphone app called Talking Carl that he thought John David might like. So thank you Shawn for making diaper and clothing changes easy again.

Talking Carl repeats whatever you say, but he sounds like a chipmunk. He also burps randomly and hollers if you poke him with your finger. This is the best 99 cents we have spent in a long time.

John David runs around after getting changed and tells Carl about all his toys.


one more week

John David will be a big brother soon!

My c-section is scheduled for Saturday May 1 at 8:00 a.m.

Two weeks ago when I went to my routine appointment, my blood pressure was high and I was admitted to the hospital for a few hours while they contemplated delivering the baby. But it turns out that everything was fine and we were sent home (thank goodness!). My blood pressure has since returned to normal. :)

My parents are coming to Pittsburgh on Monday, April 26 and will get to spend some quality time with John David before the baby arrives. He is so excited to see Gigi & Grandpa.

David feels strongly we are having a boy but I don't have feelings one way or another. With John David I had a few vivid dreams about a baby boy, but no gender dreams this time!

David may be right---this baby is supposed to be another big one and big babies tend to be male. At 36 weeks the baby's weight was estimated at 7 lbs 10 oz, so the predicted birth weight at 40 weeks is roughly 9 lbs 10 oz. John David weighed 9 lbs 12 oz.

But who knows really? We are excited to find out.

This is a couple months late due to technical difficulties.
