Like Mother Like Daughter: Part 2

Kathy and Mom Caitlin and Mommy

There was an ongoing discussion in the hospital as to who Caitlin looks like. Lots of people said she looks like me (now). However, Kathy found this old picture of her with her mom. I don't think there is any doubt now as to who she looks like.

I got the chance to be the first to feed Caitlin. She got right on it and emptied a little less than 1/2 of the bottle.

On the left is a photo of my Mom (Cindy) two days before I was born (6lbs 7oz). On the right is a photo of me Friday night (almost 37 weeks pregnant). What do you think? Am I ready to pop yet?

Here I am just waiting for Caitlin with my growing belly. My doctorr said that Caitlin is one big baby (and breech)... I guess we will have to wait a few more weeks to find out just how big!

Teach a Kid to Program / Wired How To's

Teach a Kid to Program / Wired How To's

This is a really awesome article on getting young kids excited about programming. The author of the Geek Dad blog is soliciting suggestions for programming languages to start a 5 year old on! Let's see, what would Caitlin like more, PERL or Visual C++?

To a lot of people this might seem silly, but as familiar as the average 5 year old is with computers now, it is becoming more and more realistic. Imagine how mainstream computers will be in 2012 when Caitlin turns 5.

Caitlin LOVES Harry Potter!

So yesterday was the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - the seventh and final book of the series. So first thing in the morning I trotted off to Wal-mart to get my copy and begin my reading bonanza. I read for most of the day with breaks for food and nap (hey I'm 36 weeks pregnant here - I deserve some break!). Caitlin was rolling around in my stomach the entire time I was reading! It was the most active she has EVER been. Every five minutes I could feel her rolling and punching and kicking. Clearly Caitlin is a big Harry Potter fan - just like her Mom :)

It was an awesome shower with lots of favors, prizes, presents, and great company!!
