Browsing articles from " March, 2011. Mar 8, 2011. I’m getting anxious for tomorrow’s ultrasound appointment. It’s exciting to think about “seeing” your baby for the first time. I remember staring at the grainy black and white image on the screen during our first ultrasound for Ian and the rush of feelings that hit me when I could see a tiny person. Our number one concern is that baby is healthy…. Number two concern is that there is only one baby in there…. Mar 5, 2011. For the first time last weekend&#4...

Jun 2, 2009. We made huge progress on the nursery over the past few days. I was starting to think it would never get done, but it is now (mostly) up and running and functional. The room started out off-white with stained-wood trim. I pulled all of the trim, doors and baseboards out… sanded them down to bare wood… painted it white and put it back in. Mal wanted a chair rail, so I put one in… I’m surprised at how much of a difference it makes with the whole room. Here are some more views of the room….

Jul 15, 2009. Ian Paul Haas is seen in the warmer of our room at Provena Covenant Medical Center Wednesday, July 15, 2009, in Urbana, Ill. Jul 14, 2009. BabyWatch 2009: Evening Update. I’m taking advantage of a few minutes of rest here at the hospital… We came in last night after Mal started having regular contractions that hurt a little more than she was used to. I had to use a lot of self-control to drive close to the speed limit. She’s definitely back in the land of smiley-faces for a while so I...

Pets « Mal and Steve

http://malandsteve.com/pets

We used to have two pets… a cat named Max and a dog named Oscar. Max was a little jealous about having a baby in the house so he moved to a new home with two older children who spoil him more than a drooling baby ever could. We adopted Oscar from the local animal hospital. He’s a big baby… scared of anything and everything. He loves to cuddle, sleep, bark at squirrels and enjoys hogging the whole couch to himself.

Jul 1, 2009. I made a mix of music for the baby to listen to a couple months ago and it’s been kind of interesting to see how he reacts to different songs. Mal also likes country, but I couldn’t subject my son’s ears to that twangy crap. I control the iPod, so somehow the country music got left out. He probably hears enough of it during Mal’s commute back and forth every day. I’m excited to see how he reacts to the music out in the world…I’ll find out soon enough. Jun 22, 2009. It makes perfect sense to ...

Feb 10, 2011. Filling in the blanks. It’s been close to a year since our last post, so we thought it was about time to update our whole 3 readers. Here is what we have been up to over the last 9.5 months…. My first official Mother’s Day! Ian tried to make me a heart with a hand print in it. His hand didn’t cooperate too well, but I still love it. Stephen started biking after I won him a free bike in an insurance drawing. He had been wanting to start for a long time, so it was a great win! Ian and I went ...

Trip to Indy « Mal and Steve

http://malandsteve.com/2011/03/trip-to-indy

Mar 5, 2011. We took Ian to the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. For the first time last weekend. It went a lot better than I expected… sometimes Ian gets shy and clingy when we’re in public, but he was the exact opposite over there. Mal’s parents came with us and I think it turned out to be a pretty good day. We spent most of our time in an exhibit called Playscapes that is for children 5 and under. Ian had a good time playing with water, sand, a kitchen, a construction Bobcat and. The Dora and Diego ...

Washer and Dryer « Mal and Steve

http://malandsteve.com/2010/02/washer-and-dryer

Feb 26, 2010. Mallory and I got this washer and dryer from my grandfather’s house when we got married. I don’t have the old manuals in front of me, but I think these appliances are around 15 years old. We can’t complain, though… they worked and the price was right (free). While doing research on new models we became pretty excited about the energy and water efficiency on this combo… I actually think I’m more excited about the new washer and dryer than I really should be. The delivery guys just left, and ...
