Hello Blogland!
I'm back. I might still be slightly flaky, but I plan to check in as often as I can.
Things are going well here. I had a doctor's appointment this morning and all seems to be going well with the baby. I had a follow up sonogram last week and she is "definitely a girl" and , more importantly, all looks healthy.
The pink clothes buying has officially begun!
My little man starts preschool next week, which is a great and a slightly scary all at the same time. I bought him his first set of paints and brushes last week and he absolutely loves it. He's happily mass producing art work as often as I'll let him.
We just got back from visiting the in laws near Pittsburgh for the long weekend. And we're done traveling now until the Spring, which is very exciting.
I'm ready to start nesting and just relax a bit before we introduce a whole new level chaos.
All in all, life is good.
And if you happen to be like me and pack the pounds on the behind and thigh region -Check this out - Thin thighs - maybe not your heart's desire
Apparently, folks with skinny thighs are more likely to die sooner. Waist size has long been correlated to heart disease risk, but a new study suggests thigh size may also be used to determine risks for some diseases.
The twist is that larger thighs may actually be a good thing while a larger waist is not (from a health stand point).

This oddly made me think of the Oscar-Meyer wiener song... Fat thighs, skinny thighs, thighs that sit on rocks, Tough thighs, sissy thighs, even thighs with Chicken Pox!
Don't worry about your thighs.. It's all good!
I'm going to live forever? Bwahahahahahaha. Just saying.
I'm glad all is well in your world. Have fun nesting...while you can.
Have a terrific day. :)
I'm so taking that study to heart! :)
Congrats on the baby girl news. I love having one of each and I'm sure you will too!
Glad that everything is going well. Have fun shopping for a little girl:) It's fun! I wonder if the thigh master will disappear for good now!!
I'm so glad everything is going well for you!
Very interesting article. I have an hour glass shape-which sounds great in theory but is actually extremely hard to dress and does mean that I have broader bust and hip lines =( Glad to know it might mean good health, even if it's not in style!
i'm thrilled that everything is going great with "her!" all of this travelling must have been exhausting!! glad you are home for a while :) i really hope your son will enjoy preschool!!
Welcome back and thanks for the death sentence.
I'd already come to terms with the fact that, as a lefty, I will cease to exist at the age of 80 (which is when the number of left-handers becomes so small they are no longer viable from a statistics standpoint.)
Remind me -- when's your due date? (Assuming I'll last that long....)
Interesting...larger thighs with a thinner waist.
Glad to hear all is well with the baby!
And I am the one with skinny legs. sigh. I hate my fat belly even more now.
Soak in all the nesting time and buying pink clothes...ah, just enjoy. I am always so happy to see a post from you.
I've been waiting years for a study like this. Of course, if I had thin thighs I might not have lasted this long.
Congratulations on your baby girl news!
Glad all it well.
HA!! I am going to live to be 110 then :)
I am so glad you are back!! I've missed you!! And more so, I'm happy to hear that you all are doing well and that the baby is growing and thriving. Keep checking in when you can :)
Welcome back! Glad to hear you're doing well and your DAUGHTER is healthy. Here's hoping you get some rest while little man is at preschool. Nine hours a week is nice.
So according to the study on thighs, I should live for a long long time. :-)
Shopping for a girl is so much fun!
Glad to hear you and your lil bundle of joy are doing good. When is your due date? Any names yet?
great. all this exercise and for what? so I can die with small thighs at an early age? nice
Glad to hear that all is well. I just saw the little preschoolers being dropped off for their 1st day of preschool and I can't believe that mine are in 5th and 6th grade.
I love all those articles that celebrate larger thighs!
For the first time I can say: "Yeah to my fat thighs!!!!!!"
Good to hear from you!
And hurray for good news about fat thighs. ;)
