Dance Party

One of my best friends Tim turned 25 on Saturday and I sent this to him as a birthday gift. He’s coming to visit us next week. Thought you might enjoy seeing one of the ways we get Asher to sleep. Boys got rhythm…

Still Waiting

February 3, 2010

Officially 9 days past our January 25th due date and we’re still wondering when that guy is going to come. Theresa has been doing more resting, more walking, more eating, more peeing than ever before. We’ve gotten lots of good advice on how to naturally induce labor from spicy foods, pinching your achilles heel, pineapple and having sex. (Honestly I can’t even begin to tell you how many people from how many parts of our life and told me to have sex with my wife – hence the delay in posts).

In waiting we are enjoying the extra time for reflection and with each other as just the two of us. I’m still looking for jobs and learning from the 8 interviews I’ve had recently. Perhaps the birth will be tomorrow in which case we’ll look forward to posting more soon. Thanks for all the continued support, encouragement and advice along the way. Our dear friend and doula for the birth Danii tooks these pictures of Theresa this past week. Hope you enjoy, she is beautiful.
