http://theseversons.net Our Family Blog Sat, 04 Sep 2010 18:36:55 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en It has been hard to do everything lately.  Hard to get things done, hard to relax.  It has been hard to update the blog.  And definitely hard to take pictures.  Every time I try, this tends to happen: (Blueberry pancakes really compliment his eyes, don't you think?) Most of the time I ... http://theseversons.net/?p=620 While I was miserable and pregnant, I learned knitting to pass the time.  I talked about it a lot on the blog (probably because I wasn't doing much else) and I occasionally displayed pictures of my amateurish work. The biggest project I undertook was a baby afghan for a certain Nugget. ... http://theseversons.net/?p=613 Y'all, as expected, my energy level right now is at around -283, so this may not be an upper-echelon blog entry. That may be for the best.  My seriously high fatigue levels over the past few weeks mean I haven't had the stamina to muster my anger and write my long-planned ... http://theseversons.net/?p=601 On Friday the Bug turned 1.  You know what that means.  The famous, time-honored ritual and rite of passage that all babies must complete.

Grammer was triumphant.  Now he is a man.  Or a toddler. ... http://theseversons.net/?p=592 I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea from the title of this post.  Graham plays.  He plays a lot.  It's just that "play" is a relative term.  Graham playing looks an awful lot like an adult working.

So you know how people from cold climates are always saying how tough they ... http://theseversons.net/?p=579 We have made it.  And I shall avoid the temptation to write a post about everything that has gone wrong.  (Seriously, you have no idea how much.  It all culminated today when my family dog was put to sleep.) Instead, let's be optimistic about our new digs.  For those of you ... http://theseversons.net/?p=568 Y'all are lucky I am updating at all.  Technically I have the camera with me.  And technically I've taken pictures over the last couple weeks.  But I haven't actually taken the pictures with the camera, only with my phone.  The quality is iffy and it's only really been to send ... http://theseversons.net/?p=554 Problem #1: Taking pictures of a certain bug. It's not at all the Graham is camera shy.  The problem is that whenever we pull out the camera he goes straight for it or gets distracted by it.  That is why I have absolutely no video of Graham standing on his own.  ... http://theseversons.net/?p=540 It's been 3 weeks since graduation and I haven't posted about it yet.  Then again, it's also 1 week until the LSAT, so I'm in one of my busy stretches.  If you had to pick one of us as primary caregiver for Graham these days, it would definitely be Eric.
