Remember US!

TWO WHOLE MONTHS of life has passed and tremendous growth has occurred.

I guess we should apologize for the delay in getting a new blog out -- so sorry, our bad. A short recap is order and then to some updates.



-- We are no longer living in Cambridge / Boston, Massachusetts -- and occasionally I think we miss it, especially all the long walks through the city.
-- We are back in California and enjoying every minute of it. The Bay Area weather has been very pleasant and not too warm, so the belly & I aren't as uncomfortable as many people speculated a summer pregnancy would be.
-- I graduated!! YAY. And Harvard's graduation was all we expected such a university's graduation would be. The graduation was full of pomp and circumstance, ceremonial gestures, witty and intellectually robust speeches, sleepy family members, and elated graduates.

-- We were technically without our own home for a one month. Big thanks to all the friends and family who opened their homes to this expecting family. We moved back to our home (1511 Jefferson! Friday July 03).
-- I am 8 months (32weeks) pregnant -- Baby girl Robinson is due Sept. 03, 2009, let's she if she wants to come early or late. Any guesses? To make matter more interesting she is due one week after my fellowship is scheduled to be completed, so prayerfully she holds on.
-- Baby Robinson weighs about 3.75 pounds -- yet some how Mommy Robinson has gained nearly 25pounds.
-- Baby Robinson's first cousin Alexis is extremely excited about her cousin. She is ready for sock duty -- Lexi always says she gonna put the baby's socks on.
-- Leandrew was kicked in the face by the baby (hehehe) -- she moves a lot.
-- We are back at Covenant Worship Center -- THANK GOD -- where today during service Pastor Woods referred to us (Myself, Renee and Tiana [all pregnant]) as the pregnant triplet mommas.

-- People are always surprised that I am in my third trimester. When I first started working at the school district (Vallejo City Unified) people looked at me sideways when I said I was 7 months, so I started just saying "oh the end of 6 months." And this older lady told me "you look like a bee, stung you in your belly." I got a kick outta that.
-- Baby Shower in LA this weekend -- I am super excited. I can't wait; I get to see my family and LA friends (July 18, 2009 @ Kandice's house)!
-- Daddy and Belly Pictures on their way soon.
-- HAPPY 26th BIRTHDAY KANDICE :-)

Okay enough for now -- plus it's time to make dinner -- hungry baby needs food.

Much Love,
KDR (the mommy)
