sumeera younis.: Nouri's Birth Story
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2014/12/nouris-birth-story.html
Monday, December 1, 2014. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you in labor? I responded, "I don't know. I have never been in labor before. I might be.". My basis for thinking I was in labor was that the pregnancy had largely been comfortable and now I was feeling pressure and the weight of the baby. I will spare you the other details of why I thought I was in labor. By the time I asked for an epidural, everyone resoundingly agreed. I may have been acting like a crazy person.

sumeera younis.: Valentine's Day - 2015
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2015/03/valentines-day-2015.html
Sunday, February 22, 2015. Valentine's Day - 2015. I was just wondering what we have done in the past for Valentine's Day and when I did a search on this blog here, I was happy to realize that a couple of years back, I did a little recap. So, even though I don't have all of our Valentine's days recapped, it was nice to find that quite a few have made their way on here! Was just a few miles down the road. So, with our sweet little angel in her car seat, we enjoyed a romantic dinner for 3. After we had...

sumeera younis.: Anniversary Weekend - 11 Years!
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2014/08/anniversary-weekend-11-years.html
Friday, August 22, 2014. Anniversary Weekend - 11 Years! This past weekend Feraz and I celebrated 11 years of marriage! We usually plan a big trip but since we didn't know how the pregnancy would be, we didn't want to commit to a big trip. Luckily, the pregnancy has been easy peasy so we decided we would have a nice local anniversary weekend. Let me tell you. This thing is AMAZING. We just keep it right by us and turn on and off the light as we please. Funnily enough, I was thinking the exact same thing!

sumeera younis.: 2014 Book Challenge
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2014/08/2014-book-challenge.html
Saturday, August 9, 2014. I am a part of a Facebook group that challenges you to read 50 books in an year. I seem to be a little behind but should be able to catch up still. Here is what I have read so far in 2014:. 1/50 Fresh Off the Boat: A Memoir by Eddie Huang. A pretty entertaining read about the life of a Chinese hip-hop loving son of immigrant parents trying to find his own way. (Disclaimer: A fair amount of swearing.). 8232;3/50: The Faithful Scribe: A Story of Islam, Pakistan, Family, and War...

sumeera younis.: June 2009
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. I'm worse at what I do best. There is a game I play on the metro. It's called Guess Whose BO? It might seem like an easy enough game to play but it is more complicated than you might think. The smell doesn't always hit right when the person comes near you. Sometimes when the train jerks and people are scrambled about, you catch the whiff. It can be extremely hard to identify the culprit in the mass of people. Sunday, June 28, 2009. Bulgaria, One Love and A Sunday Afternoon. Ike so ...

sumeera younis.: September 2009
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 27, 2009. All the world is a stage, everyone has their part. Book Four: Helen Keller: The Story of My Life. I have to admit that I wasn’t expecting. Much from this book. Is that mean of me? Anyways, the book was pretty terrible. It was so cheesy and flowery and generally I scoffed as I read it. Most of the book is filled with passages like, ". And if you happen to die before that age- if you were so wonderful, someone will find your personal journals and publish them anyways. What they ...

sumeera younis.: May 2009
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 30, 2009. It's so magical, we'd be fantastical. We recently went to Izmir and it was one of the best trips ever but I could not for the life of me capture it in an entry. Instead I just made an album with really long captions. Enjoy! Also, Fahad is here! Friday, May 29, 2009. Ooh, ooh that smell.Can't you smell that smell? Have you ever walked into a bathroom at work and it has absolutely reeked like someone has explosive diarrhea? Wednesday, May 27, 2009. The cake did not disappoint. I...

sumeera younis.: Baby A's first public appearance
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2014/07/baby-as-first-public-appearance.html
Tuesday, July 1, 2014. Baby A's first public appearance. As the technician scanned from one organ to another, I just watched with my breath held. I was too scared to ask her if everything was ok. I searched her face for signs of problems but it was blank. Finally I asked, it has a brain, that's good, right? And she assured me that things were looking fine. The US soccer team could have used this kicker in their game that day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

sumeera younis.: Infertility - A Life in Months
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2014/08/infertility-life-in-months.html
Thursday, August 14, 2014. Infertility - A Life in Months. I have tried many times to write about infertility. Where do I start? The part where I thought it was my birthright to be a mother? The part where I held everyone's babies my whole life with the self assuredness that one day I would hold my own? The part about the unbelievable loneliness of not talking about something that is part shame, part grief and part anger? I whisper, "Why are you dying? I lay on my back. They will be lower tomorrow. Would...

sumeera younis.: August 2009
http://syounis.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 29, 2009. Run through my town, scream til I faint. By popular demand (i.e. Fahad casually mentioned it on my facebook) I am blogging about the joys of Canton. After coming back from Istanbul I expected to fall into a deep despair at being in Midwestern suburbia but I hadn't given Canton enough credit. These are the reasons why Canton has won my heart. . Also, there is endless diet coke in the garage and on most nights there are potatoes in the fridge. Ikea: This isn’t really one of...
