Julianna's New Adventure
12:44 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
Yesterday Julianna embarked on a new adventure. FOOD! We gave her her first taste of rice cereal. She was very interested in it, but is still unsure about the whole swallowing thing. She'll get the hang of it eventually, but she definitely enjoyed playing with her spoon in the end.
Babies
1:05 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
Just a few minutes ago I was checking Facebook and noticed that a number of people I know are pregnant; some with their first others with number two or four. It's amusing how pregnancies go in waves. When I was pregnant, there were a number of my friends that were also pregnant. Then it sort of tapered off and now there are a number again. It sorta makes me want to have another right now, but that's a rather stupid idea at the moment. First of all, I'm loving my time with just Julianna and don't want to have to share my attention and love at the moment. Second, we are still living with my parents and Jon is still in school. Financially, not smart at all! So, we will be waiting for number two for a little while. I'll just enjoy all my friends babies and my new niece or nephew when they are born.
However, on a sadder note, a friend of mine from high school lost her little baby girl at 28 weeks. I can not imagine what she and her husband are going through right now. It was their first too. =(
Well Congrats to all who are pregnant! Especially those who are pregnant with their firsts!! Babies are so wonderful!

Okay, I give up with the videos. They aren't uploading. So instead, here are some pictures for you to enjoy!
Julianna video 1

So I tried to upload a few videos of Julianna, but they take FOREVER to load, so here is one for now. I think I'll load one a day. I gotta figure out how to fix this problem. (Maybe convince to the parents to get faster internet??)
This isn't the most interesting movie but at least you get to see the little one in action!

3 Month Pictures
3:53 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
Julianna got her 3 month pictures taken today. They are SOOO cute! I can't wait to pick them up on the 6th! I am a very impatient mama. She did so good and we even managed to capture a smile or two. I can't believe how big my peanut is getting!
Hopefully I'll be able to post some videos of her on her website today. I've been trying all week long, but every time I have some down time, something else comes up. Like, right now, my mother is calling down to me to come up and help her organize a closet. Guess I better go help!
MUCH LOVE!

Craziness in Pittsburgh

This morning I realized how boring our blog is becoming. The problem is there isn't much going on. Julianna is growing, I'm working full time, and Jon is in school full time. All that makes for a pretty dull blog. Sure I could post pictures of Julianna all the time and talk about her newest accomplishments, like her rolling over for the first time on Saturday and doing it three times, not just once, but I have a blog just for her so she doesn't need to take over this one.
So I was trying to decide what to write about and update you all on and I thought, why not talk about the one thing that is driving me nuts! The G20 Summit!
For those of you who are unaware, the G20 Summit has decided to grace the good 'ole city of Pittsburgh with its presence. Now to many this might sound like its an honor to have the president of the United States and other big name people here, but its not! It's probably one of the more annoying things in life. For starters, this is how the local news stories go on tv:

It's been like this for MONTHS! There is nothing new for them to report about the G20 Summit! We have heard for months about how they are closing down the city, so people are off work for 2 days and colleges are closed for 2 days, of course I don't care since I still have to go to work, give me 2 days off and I might be happier with the G20 Summit being here. They put in a $400,000 security radio system thing so all security on the rivers, in the air, in vehicles, and on foot can communicate with one another, which as of yesterday, was NOT working properly and they are unsure if they will continue to use said radio system after the Summit. Now I would say that was a BIG waste of money. On top of all this, turns out the government isn't coughing up the money ahead of time for the security they have pulled into the city, which means the city has to pay the bill and wait to be reimbursed. Some how the tax payers are going to end up paying for something related to this G20 Summit which NONE of asked for to be here. Oh yea, and it looks like we are at war since they pulled all the local National Guard units in to patrol. It's insane and if I remember correctly, you better stay off the rivers or you'll be arrested!
Saturday could NOT come fast enough. But sadly, I realize that for the next week or so the news will continue how it has with stories after stories of how the Summit went, what was discussed, where they stayed, how the visit was...etc....The news channels really know how to make you sick of events in your area.
But in other news, Julianna does get her 3 month pictures taken Friday. Hopefully all goes well! And Julianna is finally sleeping through the night. It's wonderful!
