Meck-Pom in the news

June 7, 2007

With the G8 Summit going on in Heiligendamm and the protests in Rostock, the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Mecklenburg-West Pomerania) has been all over the news this week.I’ve gotta say that I’m disappointed in the rioters who were setting cars on fire and digging stones out of the Rostock Stadthafen (city harbor) and pelting them [...]

I’m back

May 29, 2007

We made it back yesterday evening. Rainer’s mom spent the whole weekend working on getting my weight-gain up there towards the average.

Our next project is buying a stationwagon, or [...]

February 23, 2007

Next week is going to be a pretty exciting week. The Oscars are Sunday night, not sure I’m going to stay up for them. Monday morning we have our super duper second trimester ultrasound at St. Hedwig’s hospital where we will most likely find out the sex of the baby. I will try to post [...]

ooh baby baby

January 26, 2007

I always used to wonder at why so many pregnant women feel unattractive when I always thought pregnant women were incredibly beautiful. Now I know why. I’m starting to show, which means I look fat, because I’m not sticking out far enough to clearly signal that I’m pregnant. My belly has also started to itch [...]
