The Krazy Kyles

Happy Sabbath,

This morning we didn't make it to chuch. Laura isn't feeling extra social (at this point that is expected) and we are busy. Not having Peter mind you, but trying to have him! We purchased a vile of Castor Oil (misspelling intentional). Early this morning I mixed up a nasty cocktail for Laura with some orange juice and baking soda. After a few more hours of sleep, Laura woke up to discover it was remarkably effective. However she's still pregnant, just 4 lbs 5 oz lighter.

On a positive note Laura is nesting. Nesting and "day of rest" don't mix so we compromised and took a walk (Laura 3 cats, Tim 1 cat) followed by scrubbing the tub. Laura is now taking a nice, warm, relaxing bath while listening to the service at College Church and waiting for Castor Cocktail #2 to take effect.

Sixteen days until Peter's due date. We got up early this morning (Sabbath) and took a walk while the sun rose over the hills and into the clouds. Peter has dropped noticeably from yesterday, making it even harder for Laura to bend over.

People ask if Laura has had any strange cravings. The answer is, not really. There was the Root Beer Float made with Hot Chocolate , but that was really good! The next best story are the cold refried beans Laura ate plain out of the can with a spoon but. I can't cry CRAVING too loud, it reminds me of my batchelor days. We have both been craving Dreyers "Whole Fruit" popsicles but that's not strange at all, those are good!

Aside from the growing belly and difficulty in exercise I'm still married to the same Laura. But there have been changes! Our library was once rated a very conservative "G". With the influence of racy books like "The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding" complete with 120 illustrations and "A Child is Born" (A Complete Pictoral Guide to Birth) we have probably landed at a solid "R".

This morning after a walk to see if we could get a glimpse of Mt. Hood in the sunrise (Cat Game: Tim 1 - Laura 1), we had some yummy Sabbath muffins and headed for church at Vancouver SDA. This afternoon we are having some people over for Enchiladas and Banana Creme Pie that Laura whipped up yesterday.

By the way, this is kind of the first real post, meaning this site is starting to get its feet underneath it. A big thank-you to Nic Ivy for the graphic design and lots of technical support as we learned about Drupal (the brain underneath). Clicking the pictures to the right will send you to all of our pictures, hosted by Flickr. There is actually quite a bit of content already here. Look at our projects and recipes.
