I’m starting to think I’m an old fogie since I’m agreeing more with Nigel the last few episodes. Tonight’s show was a lull for me. The opening number from Travis was ok, but nothing as spectacular as last week’s. However, the show skyrocketed to new heights in the last 30 minutes.
This post is a little late since we were celebrating the birth of our daughter last week. However, there were some amazing performances that I keep returning to in my sleep-deprived state.

Baby Violet
We’re proud and ecstatic to introduce our new daughter Violet. We’re so happy that Kadie has a beautiful sister to play with. We’ll post the birth story later, we’re a little busy at the moment admiring our new baby.

Code 5-1-1: We’re Going In!
We’ve got the 5-1-1 code and we’re going in! I guess our kids like to put their momma through labor in the middle of the night and being born on Tuesdays!
I guess that 3 mile hike at Cannon Beach yesterday did the trick! Stay tuned for the official baby Lim #2 announcement on our blog with exclusive photo coverage!

Due Date Plus Nine
Yes Kadie, the world has gone upside down.
I didn’t think we’d go longer than the average, especially since that’s how long Kadie took. The weird thing is that there are no signs that labor is coming. So we’ll wait. All the while, I’m enjoying some time off from work and relaxing to a two-week free trial of Netflix’s streaming video service.
Thanks to everyone for their excitement and prayers. We’ll post on our blog when we go to the birth center and an official birth announcement probably a few days after.
Nigel’s statement summed up the season for me, just before announcing who was going home, that they were looking for stars. All the dancers this seasons were technically great dancers, but not many of them were stars.

Due Date Plus One
Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me! For my soul trusts in You; and in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, until these calamities have passed by…
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise…
I will praise You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing to You among the nations. For Your mercy reaches unto the heavens, and your truth unto the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let Your glory be above all the earth.
Excerpts from Psalm 57
This morning marks the first day past my due date. It’s funny how setting a date brings all kinds of expectations, hopes, and disappointments. In my mind I know that doctors can only predict so much, but that in reality, God has the final say when it comes to our time to be born, much less all the days total we have left to live on earth. And so I’ve decided to take it one day at a time and praise God for all the blessings he’s given me, and rest in the fact that He knows the future, which is good enough for me to know right now.
I’m glad this season has picked up after two lackluster episodes in a row. There were some very strong performances from the top 14 dancers, including a few surprises.
After last week’s underwhelming episode and resulting the loss of Max and Ashley, I wasn’t as excited this week for So You Think You Can Dance. Unlike last season, I’m not attached to anyone much anymore, despite my initial pick of Caitlin. Tonight’s episode had some good dances, but nothing as explosive as the first show of the season.
