Just some random math
comment icon3 Comments

...is the number of diapers I used to change in one week's time during the early months of mommy hood.

...is the number of diapers I now get to change over a period of two weeks!  And obviously, it only gets better from here out.  Umm, until baby #2 I suppose. Hmmm...

...is approximately the number of ounces I drink in an eight hour period in an effort to stay hydrated for nursing.  Coincidently, 56 ounces (7 cups) is also the amount of coffee Jim guzzles in an eight hour period.  Just kidding, that only happens on days that end in Y.

...times 2 is probably close to the number of smiles we get from Addie in a single day!! However, for the record Jim is convinced the number must be twice this.

...is how old I will be if I double my age come August.  Wow, am I already half way there?

...is how much it costs in Canadian dollars to fill up our Jeep with gas unless we manage to get as close to empty as possible, and then it's closer to $70. 

...minus 4 is the number of fence posts that my dad took out of the ground many years ago. (This is an inside joke about Ricky P. courtesy of David F.!)

...kilobytes per second is the speed we used to have to connect to the Internet.  Oh, how did we function?

...is the number of weeks out of the year that one could potentially expect a snow storm in Canada.  Yes, that's right; every week of the year is fair game here!

...is the number of men who signed the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776.

...is the number of consecutive games in which Joe DiMaggio had a base hit in 1941, still a record.

...is the number of times the word "Yeah" is used by R.E.M. in the song Man on the Moon.
