Monday, December 11, 2006. Posted by Ardel at 7:16 PM. Saturday, December 09, 2006. The insomnia is driving me batty. i knew i wasn't supposed to be sleeping on my back but found out last night that later in pregnancy the wee one could crush a vein in there causing all sorts of ill will. ai-ah. going to have to bolster myself onto my side so i don't roll onto my back where i've slept for the past 33 YEARS. oh the places we'll go.

Tuesday, January 23, 2007. Well its here, the third trimester. wooooo hoooo. i'm packing 30 pounds extra so far and have 12 weeks to go still. w/out a scale at home, i've resorted to weighing myself for a quarter at the grocery store and getting my lotto numbers as a bonus. i've yet to win. Prenatal yoga just started. the first class was a hoot. its at a pace i imagine my mom's yoga class at the villages. mostly breathing and stretching. i nearly fell asleep. Posted by Ardel at 7:44 PM.

Sunday, November 26, 2006. Kidddding. had a loverly holiday, ate myself silly and a light snow dusting is ushering in project jalanquera, act 2. am hoping the second half is as uneventful as the first. Posted by Ardel at 9:27 PM. Thursday, November 23, 2006. All we hear is baby boy ga ga. I didn't even make it out of the ultrasound. she asked if I wanted to know and i caved. "it's a boy! Which begs the question of is it easier to raise a boy or a girl? Almost forgot the other milestone, we felt him kick!

Everybody's pumping for the weekend. well, no, just me. i'm pumping all weekend as penance for slacking these past few weeks. taco finished my stockpile when i went to philly in august. we may have to supplement w/ formula come monday.

Project Jalanquera: April 2007

Friday, April 06, 2007. Rocco weighed in at 7 lbs, 19.5 in at birth. we're home now and it really is amazing. The show unfolded monday with my water breaking at the doctor's office and dr a telling us i'm 4 cm dilated and he'll meet us in the birthing suite. 2 weeks early, he took us by surprise. 15 hrs of labor later he became a trailblazer on the arb express. i'll leave it to xena to record the birth story as 3 hrs of pushing made me a little delirious.

Saturday, September 30, 2006. Woooo hooooo. as barry manilow croons, "looks like we made it.". The whole baby countdown has me confused. by most counts, you start counting on the date of your last period. since my memory is at the best of times spotty, that particular milestone eludes me. mid-july sometime? For all intents and purposes i'll be using the estimated gestational age as that's the one that actually makes sense to me. Posted by Ardel at 6:22 AM. Sunday, September 24, 2006.

Project Jalanquera: January 2008

Monday, January 21, 2008. Well, truth be told, this one came from daddy. taco is one wiggly babe and hates getting dressed. presnap the legs of the sleeper before you put him in and that only leaves 4 snaps to wrestle with. Stage 3 baby foods are bizarro to me. they're lasagna or thanksgiving dinner pureed and bottled together. taco seems just as happy w/ today's offering of ground beef and lentils. no cuisinart needed and both were the right consistency for his 9 mth old maw.

Sunday, October 28, 2007. Happy halloween from el guapo. Posted by Ardel at 8:09 AM. Taco leads the way. To his own mouth. taco's now 6 mths and we're off and running on solids. as is the usual case with milestones, i've scoured the internet for the method of introducing solids that suits our parenting style. ask moxie. Had a great discussion dispelling several myths on solids and also introduced us to a dutch study of a baby-led intro to eating. Posted by Ardel at 7:39 AM. Sunday, October 21, 2007.
