Smörgåsbord [ˌsmœrɡɔsˈbuːɖ]

Smörgåsbord [ˌsmœrɡɔsˈbuːɖ] is a Swedish word which refers to a type of Scandinavian meal served buffet-style in Swedish cuisine.

Allow me serve you a smörgåsbord, a chronological buffet of noteworthy events (atleast, by my standards) that have been keeping our family busy these past couple months.

JULY:
* Family vacation to Portland, OR/Seattle, WA
* Noah's First Birthday
* Dave's Softball Tournament (Big Daddy Dave came home with Best Offense...or maybe it was defense?)
* Giants - still hopeful chance for playoffs.

AUGUST:
* I got a really bad sunburn at the Google Picnic. David made us stand in line for two hours to get some Google teddy bears for Noah. That's where my sunburn came from.
* Went to Outside Lands Music Festival and watched Jack Johnson LIVE in concert.
* Julie and Andre came a visited with us.
* My sister moved down south to start her PhD program.
* Another softball tournament
* Trip to Argentina
* Giants - dismal prospect for chance for playoffs.

SEPTEMBER:
* Had a TERRIBLE ant infestation. Which, I'd like to add, I decimated, destroyed, obliterated with my homemade ant bait.
* I made homemade cinnamon rolls for the first time from scratch. I should add that it wasn't the most successful attempt.
* I made homemade veggie/fruit wash.
* Finally installed shelved in the laundry closet.
* Babyproofed the house.
* 22 weeks pregnant. Me. Not Dave.
* Giants - maybe next season.

If I forgot to tell you that I'm pregnant--well, now you know :)

So that gut that you keep staring at...it's a baby.
