my bladder is not my own

The constant peeing thing that many pregnant women talk about is beginning to come on. I’ll be sitting or laying down, perfectly fine with the world, but when I get up and Lydia shifts DOWN, it is instant alarm bells. I’ve already freaked The Husband out once running to the bathroom crab-legged. I’m not making […]

the Knowing Day

Ahh, today is the day we find out and I am ever so excited. Pink or blue; boy or girl; and all that jazz. It is a slow day today — our appointment isn’t until the afternoon. Poo. My apple bites are keeping me company. I’m in a fruit-eating kinda mood. I guess I should […]

the time is nigh

Ooh, Thanksgiving Day! A time to celebrate family and the expansion thereof! I woke up early this morning — I tried to go back to sleep, but alas, I felt like a schoolchild on Christmas morning. So up I got and had some Cocoa Puffs to start the day. People will start arriving in about […]
