I've added tickers to my blog...one for Zach and one for Baby #2! Michael and I knew we wanted to have another baby relatively quickly, but we had no idea things would happen so quickly this time! Regardless, we are thrilled! Baby #2 is due for arrival on February 25. So far, this pregnancy is very different from Zach's: I have been very nauseous, soreness in places that weren't sore before... Maybe that means it's a girl!!! I would love a little pink bundle, but of course, first and foremost, we just want a healthy baby. I will continue to post our progress!

Zachary and the Blueberries
Well, this has been an interesting summer of new things...Zach is walking everywhere, babbling on and on and on with some real words sprinkled here and there, like "oh boy!" "all gone!" "bye bye" and singing part of the Bob the Builder theme song...on key!! But the most interesting thing about Zach's development has been his food preferences... He won't turn down a piece of a cookie, of course, but he loves (and prefers) fruits and vegetables! Since he's past the one year mark, we've been offering him many new things, but the one he loves the most is blueberries!
We bought him a picture book at Books A Million, and it has a picture of blueberries in it. Zach constantly opens the book to that page and demands a bowl of blueberries! Once Michael told him no, and Zach threw the book at him! When I asked if he would like a bowl, this child dropped everything and RAN to the kitchen!! And the face he makes when we even say blueberries? Hilarious!
Now, there is a down side to this, of course... Since he's eating blueberries nearly every day, Zach now has an almost constant "blue booty!" I was told that it isn't permanent, and blueberries are so good for him that I should let him eat away.... And I do!!
