Stork of Portland???
Why did this stork peacock* just move into our yard? it sits and taunts the chickens and makes a howling noise that sounds something like a woman screaming combined with a caterwaul and a siren. our friend juliet thinks that the peacock is the stork of portland, and i think she may be right.
*this is in’t a joke, a peafowl really moved into our yard yesterday, and was even on the news last night. it’s kind of obnoxious, but if it does its duty and brings the baby soon, i’ll forgive it.
The baby room is finished!!!
The reason I haven’t been doing pretty much anything for the last three months, including posting stuff here, is because Ive been working on getting the house together for the baby. I had some help from some lovely ladies named juliet, patty, trish, jenny and of course mama erin spent all day sunday helping and motivating me put on the finishing touches. Here’s the final result:
I’ll put a slideshow up to as soon as it’s uploaded. Sorry if the picture quality is a little off, we had some bad lighting at the time.
Ok, here’s a link to the plain photos.
Today’s the due date, when’s our turn???
We know four couples who were due in the week from July 10th through the 17th. All of them have had their babies except for us! We feel like we’re going to have the baby any day now, I don’t think erin’s belly has much room left, either.
The baby was conceived on a full moon, and we’ve been tracking the pregnancy by following the moon each month. I guess we’ve always though she’d be born on the full moon in July, which is tomorrow. Last night the moon was out in full force, though pictures never show the moon as it looks in reality, here’s a nice approximation.
