Week Fourteen

February 5, 2010 by Aliesha


We’ve arrived at week 14! I think this week you can definitely see at least a little bump starting. 🙂 Click here to compare with last week’s belly photo.

My doctor’s appointment went well yesterday and we got to hear the baby’s heartbeat with the Doppler. Everything seems to be doing well!

My nausea has almost completely stopped, but I do have to make sure I eat regularly so I don’t get hungry (that makes me sick). Sleeping a lot … but I think it is because the baby is growing so much right now!

Our baby is the size of a lemon and is developing in many ways. I’ve experienced some cramping lately, which is normal … my body is making room for baby!

C.J. Mahaney’s Thoughts on the Super Bowl

February 5, 2010 by Aliesha

Those of you who know me well know that I am not an athletic person by any stretch of the imagination, nor do I have the vaguest idea what is going on in the world of sports at any given moment. However, being married to a youth pastor has thrust upon me the privilege of assisting him in hosting a Super Bowl party this year. We are excited about the time we will get to spend with the youth during the game Sunday night, but I’ll admit I’ve been a little apprehensive about a few things, such as commercial patrol and keeping the group cohesive when it is split between football and board game fans.

I came across C.J. Mahaney’s recent blog post in which he discusses some tips on watching the Super Bowl and glorifying God in the process. I thought some of you might enjoy reading it as well! Click here to read his Thoughts on the Super Bowl (as well as his predictions).

What about you? Are you watching the Super Bowl? Does your family watch the commercials? The half-time show? If you don’t watch some of the commercials, who is in on remote-control duty? And, finally… who are you cheering for?

German Heritage Night

February 2, 2010 by Aliesha

We had a mini “Oktoberfest” at our house tonight, enjoying a variety of German foods. We had bratwurst, hot German potato salad (Tad’s mom’s special recipe), and German chocolate cake (though I’m not really sure that’s an authentic German food)!
