My Wife is Famous

As an encore to Aubrey's Letter to the Editor in World magazine this last month, yesterday she was in the paper.

Technically she is part of the "out with old" referred to here. But the article is highlighting how she is staying here in town.

So Aubrey and Jeff-- I am on vacation (and finally have time to stalk my friends online and realize just how cool they actually are)and I don't really know how I came across your blog on facebook but I have read some of it tonight and I found the one about Aubrey's NPR call in--I have the time so I listened to it! Good job, way to sound intelligent and put-together. Oh and I love you guys, glad you all are hanging around town for awhile. Oh and congratulations on graduation Aubrey, I won't be there, I'm at Edisto. Good night! Ginger Purdom

Aubrey and Jeff... I am so glad I found ya'll! (I found ya'll via sixyearmed)

I am 26 and starting medical school in August (moving from Austin, TX to Fairfield, CA in three weeks), and although I'm very excited to be out of the phase of hoping I get to be a doctor one day, and into the phase of actually training to be a doctor... my boyfriend - of 5 years... 'bout time for a ring :)- and I are facing a lot of questions both internally and externally about how exactly we plan to fit a family into residency and medical school, and how its going to work with me being a doctor and most likely working mom -his very southern, very traditional parents are equally appalled by the idea that I might one day earn more than he will (he's a professionally trained chef and currently he out-earns me by $2000 a year, which seems to be enough to appease his folks) and that I probably won't be a stay at home mom! Anyway... I have been scouring the blogosphere for someone just like ya'll... and here you are!

I'm very excited to get to know you more through your blog... and also very excited to learn from your experiences :) It's amazing how many Dr's and med students wive's have blogs... but I've had a challenge finding blogs written by female med students or Dr's....

Giveaway

I've been watching in amazement for a few days as the links over here keep growing and growing with people who are hosting giveaways. The last time around I didn't participate, but now that things are slightly more settled in my somewhat crazy but wonderful job I thought I'd make an offering. The softies I make don't quite compare to amazing things you might see here or here , but I still think they are pretty cute. All those who leave comments will be entered to win the homemade softie of their choice, either an owl : (You can pick the colors you'd like, from a list of colors I have.) Or a penguin : Who will come with sunglasses, goggles, and a winter hat. (Because every good penguin should be prepared.) You can also pick (from a limited list) colors for the penguin's hat and glasses. I'll hold the drawing on Monday, since I'll be on call on Sunday, and the post the winner on Tuesday. Feel free to leave in your comment any favorite crafty blogs - ...

I am an awesome mom.

I won a new prize in the awesome mom category today. I have for some time been adding up points for all the ways that I am a good mom. Cut his tiny hand on his fourth day of life when I was cutting off the hospital band: check (He still has the scar!) Found rocks from our fireplace in his mouth: check Set down a knife on the table within his reach: check Turned around and found him holding said knife: double check Found leaves in his mouth: check, check and check Found him holding my razor, which I set down on the tub while he was in the bathroom: check Today, though, I set a new record. I locked Judah in the car. With all the windows up. See? Awesome mom, right here. It was a total fluke thing where I was tossing the keys onto the front seat as I was getting out and about to get Judah out. As I closed my door, the keys fell off the seat and into the shutting door, which closed on the lock button on our remote. And just like that, in a split second, Judah was locked in. ...

Final Picture Catch-up.

First, about 8 weeks ago, we saw this.... Then this: A little bit later there was this: And this: And Last week it was this: I'm now 13 weeks along, due in late March. We feel incredibly blessed, and of course, are very, very excited. (Working at a doctor's office and knowing how to do ultrasounds definitely comes in handy when you want to see your baby... And yes, I have been doing my own ultrasounds. It's a bit awkward, but I'm getting better.)
