    Emily sent us an e-mail the other day asking if I was holding my sweet baby in my arms yet. The answer to that question, Emily, is “no.” Baby

  • Baby Bradshaw UpdateNov 15 2010 9:13 pm

    Well, my doc would like to induce me on Friday if Hudson doesn’t make an appearance before then. So, I’m officially on count down. At least I know I’ll

  • A Little CompetitionJul 1 2010 4:12 pm

    Kristin’s middle son, Liam, was born with his Pop-Pop’s (Mahaney that is) competitive nature. He turns every ordinary situation into a contest, which must have a champion and a

    The end is in sight! Since MJ refuses to come on her own they are gonna force her out. Yep, I’m all set to be induced tomorrow morning at

    You know what they say, "A watched pot never boils." I’m case in point. Five days over as of today and I don’t think I even see any bubbles

  • Baby WatchAug 26 2008 1:11 pm

    I am now officially two days overdue. My two cousins, who were due AFTER me, have both had their babies.  (Congrats, Kel and Joy! I’m not at all upset

  • Baby WatchAug 20 2008 6:05 pm

    Just returned from the doc. How do they know when I’ve eaten a lot?? Somehow my big lunch topped off with some Cold Stone Creamery was obvious to them.

  • Baby WatchAug 14 2008 2:02 pm

    I’m interrupting the homemaking series with a baby watch update…. Another visit to the doctor yesterday. I’m now 3 to 4 centimeters and in the words of my doc,

  • Baby WatchAug 6 2008 7:06 pm

    My visit to the doctor today brought some good news. The fun back pain that I have been experiencing is accomplishing something. Yeah! I’m 2 to 3 centimeters dilated

  • Baby WatchMay 29 2008 3:09 pm

    Today seemed like a good day for a “baby watch.” I’m just coming into my 28th week of pregnancy and all is well. Little MJ is kicking and punching

  • Bradshaw Baby WatchFeb 11 2008 4:21 pm

    So the girls told me that it was time to give a little pregnancy update. I haven’t been to the doc yet, but still plenty to tell. Those online

  • Tori Update (and Mom, The Legend)Apr 2 2007 3:16 pm

    To my surprise, I have something to report today. Apparently I’ve been making progress this week and I am now “fully inducible” according to the doctor. So, TOMORROW morning

  • Tori UpdateMar 26 2007 1:52 pm

    Well, Tori didn’t make her appearance during our “Noel Piper week” and it’s not looking like she will come this week either. As my doctor said this morning, “you’re

  • Tori UpdateMar 13 2007 2:55 pm

    Well, baby Tori’s head has dropped which means it can’t get any bigger (phew!) and we’re one step closer to her arrival into this world. Other than that piece

  • Tori UpdateMar 6 2007 11:50 am

    Yesterday morning, I dug out Jack’s birth records in preparation for my doctor’s appointment. My little guy did not—and still does not—have such a little head. According to the

  • Extraordinary For It’s OrdinarinessFeb 27 2007 4:54 pm

    I have reached the point in my pregnancy where I’m counting the weeks until the due date instead of the weeks that I’ve been pregnant. Only four to go!

  • Choosing a NameJan 17 2007 3:20 pm

    Naming a child is a subjective process. A lot of factors come into play: the sound and meaning of a name, the name of the bully in second grade,

    Baby Bradshaw is going to hold out for as long as possible! I went for my weekly doctor’s visit this afternoon and heard an identical report as last time

  • Baby Watch AlertFeb 10 2006 10:36 am

    No, no, nothing to report as of last night. We just wanted to inform you that whenever Janelle goes into labor we will be "live-blogging" the event. Don’t worry,

  • Baby Watch: Week 38Feb 9 2006 11:30 pm

    Yeah!!  Little girl made more progress this week.  Today’s doctor visit found me at 2 centimeters and almost 80% effaced.  My doctor is pretty convinced that I will not

  • Baby Watch: Week 37Feb 3 2006 3:53 pm

  • Baby Watch: Week 36Jan 26 2006 6:34 pm

    Good news from today’s doctor visit!  My little girl’s head is way down (doc told me that they usually don’t see the baby’s head this low until actual labor),

  • Baby Watch: Week 35Jan 19 2006 7:51 pm

    Well, week 35 hasn’t seen much action.  Although my trip to the doctor this morning confirmed that her head was still down, it also showed that everything else was

  • Baby Watch—Does anyone have a lemon?Dec 22 2005 6:10 pm

    Lemons have assumed a rather prominent place in my life of late.  No, I don’t just eat them by themselves; they have to be squeezed into a glass of

    While everyone else is counting down the days until Christmas, we in the “Mahaney” clan are counting down the weeks until the first female grandchild, the future of GirlTalk,
