Raymond's first haircut

Lo and behold, Raymond's first haircut. It breaks my heart to see how he looks less like a baby and more like a big boy. But it was starting to look pretty shaggy, and he hates when I comb or wash it! He was a little afraid of the clippers at first, but the bribery with banana chips seemed to fix that.
The last two pictures are the finished product.

Happy birthday, Mary






Today, we celebrated the feast of the Nativity of Mary by making cupcakes and birthday cards for Mary. When daddy got home from work, we had a little party with the birthday song, candles, and cupcakes. And we read our cards to Mary of course! We only wish our new little one could have shared such a cool birthday, but it looks like that isn't going to happen! Oh, and you've got to check out the recipe for the cake- I'm sure it will sound unappetizing to you, but let me tell you, these were amazing!!

Lunch.. mmmm

Alzbeta Volk, you totally inspired my lunch today by your comment to my tomato post! I was in one of those- WHAT IN THE WORLD will I make for lunch moods, because we have NO food in the house! But then, I remembered you comment about sauteed tomatoes, onions and garlic over pasta or rice. I thought, boo- I can't eat pasta or rice- However, then I remembered, I have leftover spaghetti squash (which I was at a loss for what to do with it!) So, lo and behold, our lunch: I sauteed some tomatoes, onions, and green peppers with garlic in olive oil, threw in some fresh basil that I got free from the farmer's market and then tossed it with the spaghetti squash and topped it off with a little parmesan cheese. YUM! Something new and yet so deliciously summery! Thanks for the idea, buddy!

Preggo Pics



Here is a shot of my pregnant belly for all those of you far away. Getting bigger every day. Sorry about the quality- our camera is seriously acting up. Less than 6 weeks to the big EDD... but everyone knows that means absolutely nothing! :) Guess we'll have to find access to a better camera for the newborn pictures!
