Letters to Bunny 2


Well, here we are, already in the home stretch!  It feels like it took a long time, and flew at the same time.  We are just so anxious for you to join us!  

We have your nursery ready to go.  We are getting new windows put in to make your room nice and warm for the winter.  Since I call you bunny, we have lots of stuffed bunnies and books about bunnies to read to you.  Your brother brought his little rocking chair in your room, next to my rocking chair, and he reads to my belly.  I think you can hear him, you kick me sometimes when we are reading.  

Dad and I have our bags packed and ready to go to the hospital.  We still have just over a month, but we want to be prepared.  I haven't been feeling the best,  I think that means that you are growing big, and taking all of my energy!  I wouldn't have it any other way.  We can all feel and see you move in my belly.  I can feel you get your hiccups, it's so cute!  I also think I feel what feels like you sucking your thumb, your brother did the same thing.  

We can't wait to see if you are a boy or girl.  Mom and Nate think girl (and a lot of other people!)  Dad says boy.  I wonder who is right...

Even though I have been feeling so tired and sick, I am REALLY going to miss having you in my belly.  I love knowing that you are right here with me.  I love feeling your swimmy movements.  

We will get to see you and hold you soon!  

We love you Bunny!
Mom, Dad and Nate

Yes, I realize that we are almost half way through September and I have yet to publish a post for this month.  My apologies.  To make up for it, I have a double post of good fall recipes for you.  Here you go: Fall. I love it for so many reasons. The first reason being how everything outside is so beautiful. Trees are dressed in brilliant shades of warm colors. I love the crisp air. I love pulling out the sweaters and jeans. I love tailgating. There are so many wonderful things about fall, I haven’t even gotten to the food yet! I absolutely love fall foods. Low and slow stews, caramel apples, mulled cider, warm donuts…I could go on but I’m afraid I’d drool all over the keyboard.  What do you love most about fall? Game Day Cookies So here are the ingredients: first cool weather of the year, first weekend of college football and your husband is hosting a poker party. What does that add up to? Baking of course. I decided that those ingredients were the pe...

Shortbread Cookies

This is one of those recipes that you will either love me for or curse the day that I was born.  (It's August 6 for those of you who make these and then step on the scale.)  These cookies contain about a stick of butter per cookie...well, that might be a slight exaggeration, but that is precisely why they are so irresistible.  I made these a couple weeks ago and what I wouldn't give right now for one of these crumbly, decadent, sweet cookies melting in my mouth as I write this.  Sadly, they were polished off within a day or two of making them.  Yes, August 6 was on the receiving end of some curses the other week.  Poor August 6. This is a recipe I got from Barefoot Contessa.  What I love about it, other than the fact that they are downright addictive, is that it only takes a few ingredients and it is pretty quick and easy to put together.  You don't need a lot of special equipment, but if you have a shortbread cookie cutter, that ...

Anniversary Trip 2010

Rome Wednesday/Thursday March 3-4 We start our journey at 9:30 in the morning at Grand Rapids airport.  From there, it is off to Cincinnati, then to New York.  At 5:00 pm we are in the skies en route to Rome.  We land at 8am Roman time.  After a short train ride, we arrive to our hotel, in the rain and check in.  We change, freshen up and go out to explore the area near our hotel and grab lunch.  We stop in a little deli which serves panini and made to order pizza.  Gelato was also on my mind and oh...how to describe such creamy, rich decadence?  It was pure heaven.  We were in Piazza Barberini.  Luckily, the rain stopped and we were free to roam Rome.  Jet lag quickly set in for me.  We found our way to the Pantheon and walked in.  It was amazing.  It still didn't quite sink into me yet that we were actually in Rome.  We decide to head back to the hotel for a quick nap before we went out for dinner...
