One of the side benefits of being pregnant in London is that everyone is supposed to give up their seat to you if you have a “Baby on Board” badge pinned to your clothes. I haven’t really felt the need to get one just yet, but now that I am aware of this perk, I will definitely be getting one.
While I don’t have one yet, I have seen several of them floating around, and interestingly, I have only ever seen women offer up their seats!!! I must be showing a …

I have lots of news to report – some good, some taxing! On the GOOD side, I am settling in nicely. I found an excellent flat, and I am very happy about it because it is right on a 200 acre park. The balcony looks over a canal with dicks and geese – the canal is about 15 feet across (yes Mom, yes Kathleen,  yes Joanne, and yes Kristin, there is a fence around it so Baby Sutton will not go flying in), and then the park is literally right …

So I leave tonight. The good thing is I have a lot fewer clothes to bring with me this time so I won’t have to struggle through the tube traffic bogged down with a million pieces of luggage. The bad news is I am really going to miss everyone here in Phoenix.  London is definitely where I want to be, but saying goodbye is always hard.
Having a baby is finally starting to sink in, and the more it does, the more excited I get. I was lucky enough to not …

Okay, so Jen is going in for an ultrasound soon which will apparently tip the baby’s hand on what sex it plans to be. So before it happens, make your guess!

As anyone who follows this site knows, there are a lot of photos of Jennifer eating. Sadly, you can see what this has led up to. Jennifer is pregnant with a food baby. Disgusting. Wait, hold on, Jen is yelling something at me…
Oh! That’s a real baby! Sorry everyone, I had no idea, but apparently Jen has a real baby inside. She is 16 weeks along and so far everything is going as it should. So how do we know Jen is really pregnant? Because if she wasn’t and her …

Who knows, with only 589 people living there, it shouldn’t be too hard to take it over…

We were inspired to do a little in-country travel today, so we took the train out to Windsor to visit Windosr Castle. The Castle is the largest (484000 sq ft) inhabited castle in the world, and the oldest in continuous occupation (over 900 years).
Windsor itself was very picturesque – it is a quaint little town with tons of little old houses and pubs. The great thing about Windsor is that usually when we visit an historic site it involves a long trek up a mountainside, but this time the train …

Ok… maybe I go a TINY bit overboard with the planning somtimes, but I have a really good excuse. You see, last February, I was put in charge of planning the itinerary for our Spain trip. And I might have messed a few very small parts up (such as any directions to anything whatsoever). After getting lost 18 times, Michael became very mildly annoyed one evening after we trekked through Sevilla for 90 minutes trying to find a hotel that ended up being 50 meters from our start point. No …

Jen and I and the Pope. That’s right. We took on the country of 900 people and so much artwork that they put it on the ceiling…

First, I’d like to say that the Sistine Chapel was all that it was cracked up to be. Anybody who would paint standing up, looking up 18 hours a day for 4 years gets major props, but then to see it was pretty spectacular. There were no pictures allowed in the Chapel (although it didn’t stop some ding dongs) …
