So we finally meet...
Hello everyone! I've re-emerged. Things are pretty hectic around here. Hubby, Charlie, and I are slowly getting to know Baby and he's slowly getting to know us.
Even though Baby has a real name, I'll keep referring to him as Baby Norris* in this blog. In honor of his first week out of the womb, here's a visual retelling of our first encounter:
*Somehow this pseudonym seems so appropriate...

"So, you're the one who kept me captive for 39 weeks..." |
"Now that I'm finally out, I can show you how I feel..." |
((Kapow!)) "Take that, female captor!" |

It's time
Hi everyone,
Just fyi- I'm unable to upload posts for a bit because hubby and I are off to the hospital. Our long-awaited guest has finally decided to arrive.

Prunes
I don't like prunes. I've never liked prunes. However, if you visit our apartment, you'll seen many homages to this sweet and sticky fruit. Why on earth would I eat something I don't like? Well, they're great for digestive health and nowadays, I'll eat anything to get me "going."
Here are the different ways I've incorporated thisyucky special fruit into my diet:
Here are the different ways I've incorporated this
- Initially I tried eating prunes straight from the jar. (Bad Idea. They're
so yuckysickly sweeta tad too full flavored.) - Then, after
gaggingstruggling with that option, I tried drinking prune juice. (Unfortunately, prune juice was still toonastyfull bodied.) - Then, I tried diluting prune juice with iced tea. (Prune tea was certainly more palatable, but I needed more prune power.)
- Recently, I've tried incorporating them into my cooking.
I made prune bars (using the basics ingredients in this recipe):
You can't see those sticky suckers, but I guarantee they're in there! |
Hmm, what prune dish to make next? Prunes and chicken? Prunes and pork? I'm hoping that Baby Chuck Norris comes soon, so that I don't have to get too creative....

The answer is no
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a strange rhythmic thumping in my belly. It almost seemed like Baby Norris was keeping time to music. After noticing this strange phenomenon several other times I started to wonder... was Baby Chuck Norris a musical prodigy? Is he taking after his namesake?
They do say that (the real) Chuck Norris:
Hmm. Well, after some extensive internet searching, I found out that sadly, Baby Chuck Norris is not a musical prodigy. He just has baby hiccups. :) How cute is that?
(By the way, Baby Norris is still not here.)
They do say that (the real) Chuck Norris:
- can play techno music with his heart
- can stop the music
- taught Jimi Hendrix to play guitar
- can conduct an orchestra using subtle variations of roundhouse kicks
