26 Weeks

Once again I am a few days late. The truth of the matter is, there aren’t many new exciting updates on the pregnancy front (aside from the gross ones — see below) and it’s almost becoming a drag writing these weekly updates.

A Picture for a Terrible Tuesday

I’m having a really crappy day. So here’s one for me, along with anyone else who might be down in the dumps… Via The Daily What. P.S. — Sadly, I doubt Comang will let our baby girl do this to him. In fact, I’m pretty sure he’s scared of babies and kids, as he always deliberately […]

Mario Live Wallpaper for Android [zOMG!]

Here’s another one for my fellow Android fans: a Super Mario Live Wallpaper! If your phone runs Android 2.1 or higher, this FREE download allows you to mimic a non-interactive game right in the background of your phone.
