Julia blogs it like she sees it. Sunday, February 19, 2006. Disclaimer: The following contains references to medical procedures, bodily fluids, and general ickiness which may not be appropriate for those squeamish about such things. Several people have told me that I should be sure to write out the story of Grace’s birth now while the memories are fresh in my mind, so here I go. Hopefully it won’t give our family and friends the heebie jeebies or anything. Things that surprised me about labor. I was real...

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Monday, July 30, 2012. Lewis is 10 months old (well, 11 months as of tomorrow) and I think he looks so much like Grace at the same age; what do you think? I feel like Lewis reminds me so much of Grace at the same age in his mannerisms and expressions and whatnot as well. Genetics are so interesting! And here is what Grace looks like now, about six year later, with her adorable lack of front teeth:. What a fun day. Thursday, July 26, 2012. What Is Saving My Life Right Now.

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Monday, April 29, 2013. Spring Has Come, At Least For a Few Days. It is so warm! We have had our first 70° days within the past week and have been soaking up the balmy sunshine, at least until the chilly weather returns. (Which is tomorrow, it looks like.) We went to the zoo yesterday and although I don't necessarily recommend going to the zoo on the Sunday afternoon of the first warm weekend of the year (so, so busy! It's been a nice spring for us. We had Passover. And t...

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. I've been contemplating our autumn and how much there has been to be thankful for. Both sets of grandparents came to visit, it was a harvest season full of bounty and deliciousness, my astronomy writing job is going well, and we explored Utah outside of our own city more than we have before. We left the girls overnight for the first time with our friend Haley. Not that the scenery is too shabby in the city itself:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Monday, December 31, 2012. Soon 2012 Will Be Behind Us. This winter has already given us more snow than we had all last year. The skiiers and snowboarders are so happy! Maybe I'll try the snow sports again in 2013? I saw one movie. In a movie theater this year. Maybe in 2013 I will go all crazy and try for two! Robert and I celebrated our 10th anniversary. We have been married a decade. I read about 15 books. I did not leave the state of Utah once, although we did explore...

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Wednesday, March 6, 2013. Lewis is 18 months old now, halfway through his second year of life and closer to his 2nd birthday than his 1st birthday. This second year of life is so amazing; everyday he opens up to the world a little more, learns a new word, and is a more busy, animated, joyful toddler. I got rid of the booster seat in favor of the Kaboost. Baba" for apple, night-night, nurse, go, shoe,. Another recent one is dog. Both of our girls as toddlers said "uppy!

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Tuesday, November 12, 2013. I did these books through Blurb. And they turned out BEAUTIFUL. I sort of used their slurping blog-to-book thing. They do, but I had to manually do the formatting to get it to look the way I wanted. It does blow my mind a bit to consider how much work is in these books, between the original writing and then the putting them together in this form. Making these books was not a quick process. So that is that! I have started a Tumblr. 2 of 30 (6%).

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Saturday, August 31, 2013. Two Years of Lewis. Today is Lewis' birthday and he is two entire years old. We went to the farmers market to eat lunch and play on the playground, we opened presents from our generous family, and soon we will have some delicious cake with singing and candles. I am so thankful for this sunny, joyful boy, and I am so happy to be celebrating a new year of his life. Happy birthday, sweet boy. Such a gorgeous, full of life boy, Julia! 2 of 30 (6%).

Julia blogs it like she sees it. Friday, August 31, 2012. One Year of Lewis. One year ago today, before the Sun had risen, Lewis had arrived here in the world after a much longer labor. Than I would have predicted. And then he was here. His beautiful amazing self was here, on the very morning that Grace started kindergarten and our family changed and grew and became what it is now. Happy birthday, my delicious blue-eyed boy. Monday, August 6, 2012. A Good Book Is Hard to Find. But much to my (hopefully w...
