Lessons of a Yankee Belle: Why I love being pregnant in Virginia
http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2011/08/why-i-love-being-pregnant-in-virginia.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Tuesday, August 16, 2011. Why I love being pregnant in Virginia. But this is Virginia, and I am truly enjoying being pregnant here. No one rubs or pats my belly. Unthinkable! No questions about whether I will have an epidural or if I will breastfeed. I get lots of well-meaning advice, none of it with attitude. The sentiment I hear the most is, "You poor thing! That pregnant in August! And it's so HOT! I've written about my "c-section guilt" before here. Today's lesson: You neve...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Sunday, August 21, 2011. Not what I wanted, but what I needed. It went well. In fact, the whole thing went so well that I have had trouble feeling bad about it. The surgery was easy. I got tons of time afterward to pull myself together. The nurses settled me in, Michele went home to sleep, and three hours after his birth, the nurses brought me my son. All 8 pounds, 8 ounces of him. Welcome to the world 2.0! And Congratulations to everyone in the family! Trust me.vaginal bir...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle: I guess I should update
http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-guess-i-should-update.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Friday, June 24, 2011. I guess I should update. Well, it's time to start nudging my night own in the direction of his bed. I remember when I used to be a night owl.now I require as much sleep as a newborn, I swear. Today's lesson: Sometimes being happy doesn't mean a bigger, fancier house. In my case, it means cutting the living space in half so that I can be back in a happy place. I have total faith that you will survive raising two boys! June 25, 2011 at 2:37 AM. Template ima...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle: January 2011
http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Sunday, January 30, 2011. Note: Before the pregnancy police read this and have a fit, everything was made with pasteurized milk. This is the US, people. We have laws here that keep us away from all the fun food. Getting the real stuff involves either a local dairy or a trip to France, and since I went to neither tonight, berating my choice of haute pregnancy cuisine is unnecessary.). Monday, January 10, 2011. If you give a kid a cookie. Saturday, January 1, 2011. Welcome to the...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Monday, September 26, 2011. Blogging when I should be showering. But he's pretty cute when he's sleeping. As for me, other than the gut-wrenching loneliness, I'm fine. In fact, I'm doing really well! Class is back in session, which makes the time pass a little more quickly. I've lost all the baby weight. And yesterday I managed to take both kids out to have their photos taken at one of the local farms. WITHOUT a stroller. I am Supermom. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Template imag...

http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2011/07/home-stretch.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Friday, July 15, 2011. Here we are. The ninth month. The last four weeks of what will probably be the last time I will ever be pregnant. Though this pregnancy is one of those that's been so easy, I'd be ok having 5 more, but seeing as I refuse to drive a minivan, I'm going to have to stop now. Note - Photos used with full permission of Rachel Brenke Photography www.rachelbrenke.com. She's one of my best friends, and she came out to do a mini-session with Sam and I a few weeks a...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle: November 2010
http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Thursday, November 4, 2010. Never discuss religion and politics. Isn't that the old saying? I think Facebook has changed all that. However, since I refuse to start religious or political debates on my Facebook, I'm going to make my short statements here. 1 Religion - God is love. Grace covers all manner of sins. But being a jerk does not reflect kindly on your religion. That is all. And now for a cute picture of my son, Narcissus:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Lord o Lord, There...

Lessons of a Yankee Belle: September 2010
http://armyowife.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Lessons of a Yankee Belle. Sunday, September 19, 2010. The making of a perfect family photo. The women in my family have been obsessed with their mortality as of late. This led my mother to organize an impromptu four generation family photo session in my living room. My house is poorly lit. There were screams about bad hair, no makeup and someone's death bed. And judging from our last effort at a family photo, I knew it would be a challenge. Well, that went well. How about another shot? Son, hold still!
