Yes, we're alive. No, Atom isn't here yet.

I wish I had lots of things to report. But, I don't.

Everything has been going well the last few weeks, we're getting settled into the house, and working on the yard (sort of).

I haven't been working this week so I've taken the opportunity to rest, meet with friends, and whatnot. Both things that I'm sure I won't really be able to do right away once this lil man gets here!

Speaking of which Atom and I are both very healthy and doing great!! We met with Pam, our midwife, yesterday and everything is looking and sounding good! Hes dropped a bit as well. So he really could be here any day. Could be tonight, could be in two weeks. Who knows!! We're not *to* anxious for him to get here yet. Theres no rush - he'll show up when hes ready :)

In other news we've been into watching the 1st season of Heros. Totally awesome!

This weekend, if Atom doesn't decide to show up, we'll be going to a soccer game out two and maybe try and make in out to WAPI.

Thats about it tho....We'll be sure to let you know once this little man decides to make an appearance!

A call to all of the crafty people I know

I am in LOVE with these hats (a basic beanie, but with a short brim). I would like for Atom to have like 2 or 3....or 9 of these in different sizes for when the weather gets cooler. Could any of you make some for me? I'd GLADDLY get all of the materials for you, and somehow compensate you for your time (coffee, cupcakes, a good book, baby sitting, my never ending love and adoration? Any of those plus a little extra $$?).

I just can't afford the $25 + shipping that people are asking for these (although i think they are totally worth it!)
If you think you'd be able to help just lemme know!!!Thank you!!xoxoxox

Free slurpees!! My fave day of the summer!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am doing well!!

We're getting our crib and dinning room table & chairs tonight. Also, Pam (my midwife) is coming over for our 1st home visit! yay! We're picking up the stroller + other baby things tomorrow, and plan on spending some fun time up in Portland!

Today is free slurpee day at 7-11, and I plan on taking full advantage of that as soon as I get done with this post!

And because I like making post that include pictures, and I don't have any other pictures at the moment - here ya go:

Very sweet.

post from a coffee shop

So, here is the first post, post move. See what i did there?

Ha, anyways. I think I should start by saying we are not dead, we just don't have internet, so making updates to the baby blog can be a little difficult, so I'm sorry. BUT! Things are good. Darbie and I are settling into our little house. I've decided that I'm going to war against all paper blinds that have no easy way of use. Other than that, the house is good. It got a little too hot last night, but that could happen anywhere ya know?

We were planning on going up to Ikea this weekend to pick up the crib (which I need to say a huge thanks to Grandma Kronser! and everyone else for that matter, you all have been amazing in the progression of our new lives together, thank you) but unfortunately is out of stock at the moment and apparently the gal who Darb spoke to on the phone has no idea when they will have them again, or why they have been sold out for so long.

Speaking of people who don't know what they are doing at their jobs, don't go to the Taco Del Mar at the Keizer station, those girls there couldn't make grass grow if their lives depended on it, much less take an order and keep it in order. blah.

So that's really it... I've been working the new job now for 2.5 weeks. Darbie and I are making cute little menu's for our meals so we can plan out enough food and over all just enjoying our new home too it's fullest.

Till next time,

Mikee

Now we have a place to sleep!

Darbie and I have keys for the house! yay. It's really cute, but is screaming for us to put our stuff in there. We are really excited. yup.
