Prog Rocking In the Free World

By On September 27, 2011 · 1 Comment

It has been a busy, fulfilling few weeks.  Having Marit & adjusting to life with a new baby keeps me busy.  Magnus is growing like a weed.  He isn’t walking yet but he takes steps when nobody is paying attention.  Pretty soon he’ll be running everywhere.

Too keep myself from getting bored I’ve jumped feet […]

It’s 3:36 AM

By On September 23, 2011 · 2 Comments

It’s 3:36 AM & I just tucked Marit into her bassinet at the foot of the bed. Magnus has his feet in my back & Abe is sleeping (a little twitchy but at least he hasn’t sleep boxed me). I know in a few minutes Abe will sleepily turn over to scoop Magnus closer.  Seeing […]

Marit Abelin: A Birth Story

By On September 15, 2011 · 2 Comments

Back in January I was feeling tired & just not quite myself.  After talking to Abe I decided to take a home pregnancy test…  Much to our surprise the test was positive.  I was 6 months post-partum with Magnus; I was nursing & another pregnancy was definitely NOT in the plan.  However, like most of [...]

And Then There Were Two

By On September 6, 2011 · 1 Comment
My last post was rather short & left my readers hanging.  Well, I am home after five days in the hospital and I brought a tiny little girl with me.  She had to be delivered via c-section on Thursday September 1, 2011.  She arrived five weeks early and we are so blessed that she is […]

Celebrating Nine Years

By On August 31, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Today is our ninth wedding anniversary.  I can’t believe it has been nine years… In some ways it feels like I’ve been with Abe for a lifetime (in the best of ways).  Abe gets me, balances me & survives me.

This year we had planned to have dinner out some place semi-nice… Nothing too […]

I’ve Got Kids…Now What?!

By On August 24, 2011 · 2 Comments

Nothing compares to having kids.  They are both the joy & bane of any parents’ existence.  Their antics can amuse or frustrate (often times both).  There’s all kinds of blogs, books, seminars & advice on how to raise your children.  I’m not even going to pretend I have any answers.  In the game of being […]

You Want Kids?

By On August 21, 2011 · 2 Comments

The other night I was chatting on Twitter with a couple friends & we were discussing having kids.  It started out being a silly discussion on how I should just let my kids run free range (no diapers) so that I could spend my money on ice cream instead.  One of the ladies said, “I […]

Umm…Surprise?!?!

By On August 18, 2011 · 1 Comment
I am getting closer to my due date & frankly I’m a little freaked out!  I can’t imagine how I’m going to deal with 2 kids within 15 months of each other.  Magnus is a busy little boy & I know things will only get busier when he finally decides that our stairs must be […]

General Updates–Part 2

By On August 18, 2011 · 1 Comment

When last we checked it was July 4th weekend & we were spending the weekend with family.  The Sunday of that weekend was reserved for the Erickson family gathering at Aunt ML’s house.  We go nearly every year (missed last year due to recovery from having Magnus) & it is always great to see the […]

No Wonder Kids Can’t Read

Magnus has been battling bug after bug this is month.  We have been out and about a lot since the July 4th weekend & he has paid the price.

First we got the pleasure of rotavirus.   Nothing like a week for the nastiest, poopiest diapers to make me wish I could let Magnus run bare […]
