I Know It's Been A Long Time But...

Ok, so I know I haven't written in a while but it's not all my fault. Mom has been working a lot (which is why I had to kidnap her account to write this post) and Dad just got a promotion (I've very proud of him) and is having fun with his own blog. It's hard to get these two to sit down with me long enough to get this out. So...I took over Mommy's computer at work while she's on hold for somebody called a vendor.

Venice Day 2 (2.10.07)


There's so much to report. As you can see, I've added a ticker to the blog so that everyone will know how it will be until I arrive. Mind you, I may arrive a little early...or a little late. I am the first born and want to make a grand entrance. That ticker counts down to the day the doctors think I will join the rest of the world on the outside. I do have to wonder how I'll get out of here but I'm sure I'll figure it out soon enough.

Rome Day 3 (2.6.07)


Back to my report, Mommy, Daddy, and me went to Italy for what Daddy calls a babymoon. It sounded like a very interesting place. And, I must say, I enjoyed all the different foods that Mommy and I tried (I've got taste buds now, you know). Anyway, we went all over the place. Siena, Rome, Venice, and Florence. They walked from one end of a city to the other, lost in the art of it all. According to Daddy (we talked a lot during the trip), some of the cities were more beautiful than any of the others he'd ever visited before. Oh, and Venice smelled like a giant fish. Mommy and I don't like fish very much. They got to experience Carnevale, see the Sistine Chapel, view the tomb of Pope Jean Paul II, and saw Michelangelo's the David. Apparently, the David was so beautiful that we just sat there for a while so Mommy and Daddy could stare at it some more. I didn't like sitting still so I kept kicking Mommy so she would get up and go but nothing.

Florence Day 2 (2.13.07)


Just after we got back, Mommy and Daddy had the doctor take a quick look at me to see that I was doing okay. And, boy, was it quick. I barely had the chance to turn and say hello. Now, I'm longer than a foot, weigh more than 1.5 pounds and I have pink wrinkly skin. Don't worry, all the articles Mom's reading say I won't be pink for long. Just until I'm born, and then I'll grow into a new color. I've been kicking and turning in Mommy's belly for a while now and I'm getting better. I can actually kick so hard now that Mommy has to stop what she's doing and give me "a little talking to" before continuing on.

I think that's enough for now. I've been telepathically typing for too long. Must...not...break...connection. Don't forget to visit Mommy's blog, and Daddy's blog. Both have notes and more pictures from Italy!

See you next time. And I promise I'll try to keep up. Love you all!
