After 9 long months, it's finally happened. The parasite has been expelled. And what a cute little parasite she is! It's actually been a couple of weeks now, but I've had very little energy to do anything but take care of the baby, due to a last minute complication. I had[...]
Merry Christmas! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday, filled with family and delicious food! I'm now at 27 weeks pregnant. The final week of the second trimester. Next week, 28 weeks, will start the third trimester homestretch. It feels like this pregnancy has gone at light speed. In th[...]
I've had big barn plans in the past, but I've since scaled back my more elaborate ideas. A couple of factors play into this - the time required, the cost, and considering resale value down the road. If I built something more elaborate, chances are I would never get my money back. So, the ne[...]
Big news in our world! The baby is in the factory, continuing to get bigger and stronger, but to double check on that, I had my anatomy scan to ensure all the parts were there. After all, we don't want any surprises! The anatomy scan is typically done right around the 20 week mark. They che[...]

You already knew that I wasn't dead, so me being alive isn't the big deal (although, in a way, it's a pretty big deal for me.) Instead, this is a different life changing event, although it is actually related to why I have been MIA for a while now. For you see... I am pregnant! 19 weeks[...]
It's been almost three months since my last post. My god, where has the time went?! At first it was time. And then it was exhaustion. And then when it wasn't my routine anymore, I just forgot about it... To get everyone all caught up, here's the high level of things that happened over the last[...]
My little Stubert is officially a yearling now! My little boy is growing up! Technically his birthday was June 4th, but it's never to late to celebrate! So what has little Stubert been doing? Well, I'm glad you asked! He's gone on solo walks around the property, getting a bit exci[...]
I have wanted to see Biltmore since I found out it existed, and we finally made the trip down. We stayed in Asheville, which is a bit too hippie-ish for my liking, but Biltmore was pretty amazing. The area has been getting a lot of rain recently, and when we first arrived, the driveway to Biltmore[...]
