Well, poo. Just got a call back from the doctor about the testing I had done yesterday. He said he’s not too concerned about the abnormally high BP (which came in at 140/90 on two separate readings), since my urine samples have come back fine, but he wants me to do a 24-hour urine sample. [...]
I decided to look up the name Dutton on the web and see what it’s origins might be, and I found quite a bit of information. Cool stuff! I assume we’re related to this in some way. In short, the name Dutton goes way back to about the year 1000 and [...]

When I first moved to Houston, I was a bit worried about crime especially since we were living in an area that is being ‘regentrified’. It is the Wharehouse district and once was once known as the place to go if you want to get shot and robbed. But so far, I [...]
Holly and I found this Old Spice commercial funny and stupid. Even after a few sightings it is still funny.
Well, we had the 23-week visit today. Up about 5 pounds overall from pre-pregnancy weight, but the increase in VOLUME is what’s really amazing. Now, laying on my back, the lump over my stomach is not just bellyfat. It’s quite firm, and quite obviously the baby. The ultrasound today showed that she is upside down [...]
