Just Waiting…

Well, Tuesday, March 15 is almost over… And I was sure our little girl would show up today. Oh well.  Momma and the little one are doing great. Kayce’s just working and waiting, as am I. She can’t stay in there forever, right? We have the room prepared, as much as we can. Babies ‘R Us wouldn’t cooperate with the chair I wanted (ordered it, and promptly received an email saying my order was cancelled due to the item being unavailable!), but everything else is ready to go.  I wasn’t sure if we would make it or not.  My (awesome) mom is sewing up the valances and bumper pad, etc…  So, we are ready (as we can be) for our little girl to make her appearance. I’ve my camera batteries charged, memory card cleared off, and my phone prepped as a wifi hotspot, if the hospital’s wifi gives out… Oh, and Kayce’s got her bag packed and stuff.  I guess that’s important, too.

I cannot tell a lie…

We finally got our wall decal that Kayce ordered… from Israel! It’s really great. But, I cannot tell a lie… This cherry blossom tree was tough to put up. If Joe and Donna hadn’t been here, Kayce and I would’ve had really tough time with it. It’s up and we had enough extra flowers to float them around the corner to the changing table. The picture was taken with a panoramic photo app on my phone.

360 Degree Snow Photo & WebCam

Click For Full Image

I used an app I discovered through James Van Dyke to take this 360 degree photo of the snow at our house today. The app is called Pano, in case your wondering. This was taken with my iPhone4. I almost froze my hands off taking it! Thanks to the iPhone’s capacitive touch screen, which needs bare skin for it to work. Plus, it just takes awhile to take 360 photo. There are few places I could’ve done a better job lining up the previous image, but hey… IT WAS COLD!!

Also, I’ve put the “Snow Cam” live. Check it out by clicking SnowCam at the top of the page. It’s a live shot of our street. Enjoy.

Meet Molly, IN 3D!!

Well, you knew it was coming. We’ve done the 3D ultrasound with all of our children, so you knew sooner-or-later we would have these pictures. Here they are. I have to say, she wasn’t as cooperative as the boys were, but we still got some good pictures, saw a few smiles (gas, probably), and she stuck her tongue out at us (she’s taking after her mother, far too soon).

Molly & Momma

And just for fun… Here’s the whole set. Parker, Carson, and Molly, IN 3D!!

The Three Susongs

The rest of Molly’s pictures will be up in the Picture gallery later. I’m having hosting memory issues and can’t seem to get my gallery plugin to work right. I hope to have them up sometime tomorrow.

UPDATE: The gallery is up and running. Enjoy.

Caught on Camera!

INTRUDER!

Caught my father-in-law coming in to our house to feed our cat. I love technology. Especially, webcams! Here’s a free tip. With the low price and fairly easy setup of today’s wireless network webcams, no one should be without a security camera or two,or three in their home. This one cost just at $100 and took minutes to setup. I have it programmed to watch our door for movement and when detected to email me a series of images. It works pretty well. I get a few false positives, but that’s better than not getting anything at all. Remember these are secured wireless IP cameras, not just wireless security cameras, which usually just plug into your tv and can be picked up by anyone driving by with an RF receiver. IP cameras work in you wireless network (hopefully, secured network) and are basically little web servers. Pretty neat, useful little gadgets for $100. Check one out if you don’t have one already.

And then there were 5…

So, since we’ve known that we are expecting our 3rd child, it’s been a given we would need to get a larger car. We had a Chevy cavalier and a Honda accord. While the accord is fine for two children in car seats. You just can’t fit three car seats in there. And the cavalier was not even an option. It had to go.
I had my eye on a Honda pilot. I was looking forward to having an suv. It had a 3rd row of seats where we could stick the kids and have room for some extra passengers. But it wasn’t as easy as I had hoped to get kids into that third seat. Plus, our other reason for wanting something larger is so we could all fit in one car when my parents visited or we visit them. The pilot just wouldn’t work. Oh well.
So what options were we left with? Well. The minivan. They actually got the kits in to fix the recalled odysseys they couldn’t sell us a week or so ago. Kayce and test drove a couple. I like the versatility of the passengers seating you pretty much take every seat out and rearrange them however you want. So we got it. I can’t say I didn’t enjoy driving the giant car around. And Parker really loves sitting in the very back. Here are some pictures. Enjoy.
