Molly

Since about the first month we knew we were going to have a baby we've been toying with baby names. When we found out it would be a girl we tried to pretend we were deciding between names but in my opinion we were just deciding whether we would name her Molly Pollanthropa or Molly Verionionica. So technically we haven't decided on a middle name but we have decided to call her Molly. Not sure where that name came from as its not a family name and we don't know anybody named Molly but it has stuck out in our minds and emerged as the winner.

This week we attended our first pregnancy class at the hospital. Pretty interesting and good to know information although I kept falling asleep lots. They wanted the husbands to learn how to give their wives exceptional hand massages at one point. I am no missoose but I do consider myself somewhat skilled in the art of hand massaging so I thought it would be all good until they came around and put massage lotion on the wifey's hand. Nastiest smelling stuff ever! I think it was expired vegetable oil and it even rubbed in that way (I know how that stuff rubs in because I've eaten lots of fries). Other than that it was a pretty decent class.

To celebrate President's day I went ice fishing at Mantua with my good buddy Dave. I was blessed with a lovely trout that was significantly larger than the baby one I murdered last time. And yes, I did eat peanut butter cups. Perhaps the fish wanted to eat them too and decided to come to the surface for them. Here's a picture.



Sara had some back pain the other day making dinner so we used the computer chair to make things easier for her.

Baby Update

Hey There, this is Sara updating the blog. We are now in the countdown til the baby comes and the doctor has been saying that this little girl is probably going to be coming right on time. We are really hoping that she will decide to come a week early because then fred will be on spring break. But I know that all doctors in logan will not induce early with a first pregnancy and my doctor has already said no. So here is hoping and wishing. That also means that our plans for spring break will probably include: spicy food, jumping on trampolines, lots of walks and anything else recommmended to induce labor. Its weird because Febuary is suppose to be the shortest month of the year and it already feels way to long.
