		<title>My burgeoning social life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the arrival of the little man I&#8217;m adding some extracurricular activities to my schedule — activities (admittedly somewhat happily)  I was formerly oblivious to.  Apparently weekly attendance at one or more of the following is strongly recommended for new Moms, both to provide education and prevent insanity. And although sitting in a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fuelly update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Since I find it to be one of the more useful sites/apps out there, I thought I&#8217;d give an update on Fuelly, which I&#8217;ve now been using for 2 years. So far, I&#8217;ve filled up the Audi 25 times and put just over 6k miles on the car. Prior to moving to the Greenbush area, [...]]]></description>

		<title>6th of July, baby!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our family count has increased by one! Although Sam did not stick to our plan for a pain-free 4th of July arrival complete with fireworks, I did have my first few contractions that night and, as it turned out, fireworks would have been superfluous. Per our announcement format, here are the top 10 questions people [...]]]></description>

		<title>Baby boom!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Note: This post was originally written on New Year&#8217;s Day 2010, but is getting bumped to the top every time a new baby arrives.
We noticed when we sent out wedding invitations that a disproportionate number of our friends were expecting&#8230; eight couples all in all. We&#8217;ve since learned it turned out to be many more! [...]]]></description>

		<title>April showers bring&#8230; May showers (and June!)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last summer turned out to be the year of the wedding — and not just for us. I think we attended seven and had to skip two or three due to other plans. I also attended one baby shower. This year has been the reverse&#8230; so far we&#8217;ve attended five baby showers for nine people [...]]]></description>

		<title>We&#8217;re hiring!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My department, University Communications, is looking to fill one or possibly two half-time  positions in web production and/or programming for the summer, which could last into the academic year. The ideal candidate would be a UW student, but other applicants will be considered. If you fit the bill, or know of someone who might [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cun 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
See photos on Flickr

We have another Olsen family trip to Cancun under our belt and, as always, it provided some much needed R&#038;R, fun times with family and a good dose of Vitamin D. This year everyone was able to make it except Jack&#8217;s girlfriend Anna, who was in the midst of rotations while seeking [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pregnancy math</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m finding there&#8217;s a lot of amusing things about pregnancy I didn&#8217;t know about, but one of the more ridiculous aspects is the math. One of the first things our doctor* told us was &#8220;Did you know you&#8217;re actually pregnant for 10 months, not 9?&#8221; Not news you want to hear, particularly in the unpleasant [...]]]></description>

		<title>Food for thought</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sitting in my doctor&#8217;s waiting room this morning while they test my glucose levels, via hourly blood draws, to make sure I don&#8217;t have gestational diabetes. Apparently I have &#8220;roller veins&#8221; which are difficult to stab at, so the morning started out a little rough but things have improved each time. More to the [...]]]></description>
