Been a long time...

So it's been quite some time since I updated everyone. Things have been a little busy, mostly I'm just too tired at the end of the day to do anything but go to bed and maybe read a few pages in one of my many pregnancy books.

I am currently 19 weeks pregnant and finally looking like I am. My belly suddenly popped out one morning and I've not been able to stop it since. I guess this is a good thing. At least now I look pregnant and not just fat.

Jim and I go for our anatomical ultrasound on December 18th where we can find out the sex of the baby if we choose. He chooses to find out while I am still on the fence. I was against from the beginning, but now I kind of think it might be nice to know. I guess I'm just have this feeling that it would be totally cool to be surprised at the birth and not in some little room with a stranger and the nasty urge to pee. Not to mention Jim swears it's a boy and I think it would be so funny if it ended up being a girl. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what I decide on that Thursday afternoon.

Other than that things have been pretty low key around. Here. Just teaching, coaching, and doing grad school work. Jim has been logging in the hours at Big Vanilla selling, selling, selling. This is always good with a kid and a wedding on the way.

Jim went and got the crib from his cousin, Stephanie the other week and put it all together. No missing pieces! It took us about two weeks to figure out how to get the pack'n'play set up and locked. Not as easy as you think. There's a trick to it!!! No one told us that! Other than that things are going fairly slowly in the nursery and I kind of enjoy it. I like to think of what this room will become in a few short months when our baby is sleeping in the crib and there's a pile of dirty clothes and smelly diapers in the trash.

Life will never again be the same. Scary, but amazing at the same time. I cannot wait!!!
