When I went in for my check-up the doctor made this sound and I just knew something was wrong. He showed me the blood in my uterus and said it was a sign of impending miscarriage and he gave me meds and

I figured there was no way I could write you an email this week and not mention the awful morning sickness so now whoever doesn’t know I’m pregnant again, will know now. So far the doctor says it looks

We didn’t do anything major to bring in the new year. Greg had to work until around 9:30pm, but I cooked us a nice meal and when he got home we ate together and watched some TV. Then at around 11:30pm

During the week we took Jay for his 6 month check-up. We told the doctor about the coughing and the choking incident. The doctor checked his breathing and looked down his throat and said that he seemed

I can’t believe that Jay turns 6 months old this week! My little boy is half a year old! Time really does fly. He has no teeth yet, but I’m pretty sure he must be teething because a few times he has bitten

It has been a while since I've posted anything, but we just recently moved house and it wasn't to a place just down the road either, but to a city around 3 hours away. We have finally unpacked all the

Things are fine and well here, just busy as per usual. This weekend Greg didn’t have to work so we slept late this morning (and Jay accompanied us – now that it’s cold he sleeps so well when he is with

I wonder what kind of personality Jay is going to have. Good luck to him if it’s anything like mine – it’ll be a battle of wills! Haha! That being said, you should see us already fighting over the bottle,

This week I went to visit my friend, Nina, at the Mother’s Care Center. She gave birth almost a month ago and is staying at such a fancy place! I’d never even heard of something like that before! It must

So our little baby boy is 4 months old now! I can’t believe how fast he is growing. Greg and I were looking at his birth photos just the other day and both of us were amazed at how tiny he was compared

On Sunday night we went to Nicki’s birthday party. She turned two and the party was held at this really nice restaurant. We had a lovely time and got to meet a lot of people and I must say I found it a

My poor little baby! I can’t even tell you the fright I got! I don’t remember hearing the thud, but it must have woken me up because I jerked awake and remember looking at the pillow and realizing he wasn’t

Snippets from September 2009 (3 months) I took Jay to the doctor for his monthly check-up on Saturday night. They actually called me in the evening to remind me to bring him in for his vaccination on the

Snippets from September 2009 (3 months) Oh man, if possible I actually think I’m starting to love him MORE. This last week he has grown so much and it’s like he is no longer just a "baby”, but becoming

Snippets from September 2009 The little man is asleep in my arms at the moment, but is still in that beginning “make or break” stage so I’ll hold him a little while longer before putting him in his swing.

Snippets from September 6th, 2009 (2 months) So I started work this week and I must say that I struggled quite a lot on Monday. I think it was just the fact that it was my first day back and a shock to

The following snippets come from an email I sent to my mother after she had visited us in Taiwan. That is the reason for the gap of about a month. She was right here with me, so I didn’t need to send emails

Snippets from July 28th, 2009 (1 month old) I’m sorry that it’s taken me so long to find the time to write. Once again I’m typing with one hand due to the little man sleeping in my arms. He actually woke

Reading this again after years have gone by, it amazes me all over again how scary and overwhelming those first few months can be and how sometimes, even with all the information out there, you can doubt

Snippets from July 11th, 2009 (newborn) Well, my beautiful little boy is fast asleep in the stroller next to me so I’m using whatever time I have to use both my hands to write you an email. I tell you,
