Man, I love Tina Fey. I haven’t watched SNL in maybe 3 years but this hilarious. Hopefully SNL will let us keep it up on YouTube as a piece of important political commentary.

We just had our 4D ultrasound today and got to see what Lucy looks like - a baby! She moves around a lot more than I can feel apparently. It was really cool to get to see her yawning, stretching, and squirming about. The ultrasound tech guessed she weighs about 3lbs now and told me, “Yeah don’t worry about having a small baby.” Is that a good thing? I guess I’ll soon find out.

I have updated my Flickr page with 60 new photos. Check them out!

I also have a really short video clip of her squirming. I actually have a DVD of all of her actions that were a bit more exciting, but this is the clip they gave me. I’ll see what tricks I can pull with ripping the entire “show” off of the DVD and perhaps post later.

Recently Kevin and I spent a weekend arranging a wall mural for Lucy’s room using Blik’s 99 Luftballons wall decal set. I was so happy with the results that I submitted a photo to the Blik site when we were finished. I just found out that our photo is featured on Blik’s homepage! Check it out now because I don’t know how long it will be up!

For the archives, enjoy a screen shot.

I recently came across a green baby blog that was showing off a European Baby Tub that boasted plastic that was BPA-free, completely recyclable, and extremely durable. Cost: 45 bones at Amazon.  I can’t help but see the similarity between the European Baby Tub and my very own plastic mixing bowl, purchased from Wal-Mart for $3.98 some years ago. My mixing bowl, as it turns out, is also BPA-free and completely recyclable. It’s definitely lasted me for at least 8 years, so I can attest to its durability. Would I stick my baby in it? Uh, no.
