Duluth!

By On November 7, 2011 · 1 Comment
Wow I’ve been busy lately & haven’t made time to write (okay well write here…).  Anyway, we took a trip to Duluth just before Halloween & it was so wonderful to see family.  My bro-in-law was home on leave from Iraq & it was fantastic to see him.  We spent a couple days with him […]

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 […]

Big Brother Days

By On September 17, 2011 · 1 Comment

Magnus is a big brother now.  It came five weeks early & I certainly wasn’t ready for him to be a big boy yet.  I’ve been feeling a little guilty about it in fact.  Going into the hospital like I did left him suddenly without Mom.  It was hard on me so I imagine it […]

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 […]

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 […]

Father’s Day Firsts

By On June 20, 2011 · 1 Comment
Some photos from Father’s Day (Abe’s first). We started the day with breakfast almost in bed.  The guys came down just as I finished fixing the plates.  After breakfast Abe did a little mowing (I’m sidelined from mowing again as our rider died).  While Abe mowed, Magnus & I made a card.  Magnus liked the […]

Memorial Day 2011

By On June 1, 2011 · 1 Comment

This post is a little late but I have had a sick baby and other things going on.  Thankfully Magnus is starting to feel better and sleep at night again.

Memorial weekend was fairly uneventful.  We celebrated a nephew’s first birthday on Saturday.  Magnus was too fussy to stay very long.  Sunday we rented a […]

Update: Magnus

By On May 17, 2011 · 1 Comment
It’s been ages since I talked about Magnus.  He is a busy little boy & so entertaining.  Right now he is playing on the floor & singing to himself at the top of his lungs.  I can track him anywhere in the house based solely on his little voice.  He doesn’t say words yet except […]
