The weight of the world? Life? No, I'm feeling the weight of this baby!
I am once again reminded that I am not one of those women who like to be pregnant. This pregnancy has mimic'd my very first pregnancy. I had debilitating nausea for 16 weeks with my daughter and then with this one. The repeat of the first had me convinced that I was having another little girl. Then the ultrasound proved me wrong.
Me? Wrong? Not possible. It's my body for heaven's sake, I should know what I remembered the first time. Although this time it is a bouncing baby boy...and I mean bouncing.
I am getting beaten up from the inside and there is nothing I can do but take it. I know, this too shall pass, but I'm finding that time tends to slow down in the not so comfortable stages of pregnancy. And I am there...in the uncomfortable stage.
I wince while I walk because this little one likes to sit low. I'm at the waddling stage which I hate, but cannot help. This time around I get dizzy easily and go from not being thirsty to feeling like I've been wandering through the desert for days. Ahhhh...the joys of pregnancy...NOT!

Another one?
Well, it's been a while since I've been on this blog. I guess once the holidays hit, I had no extra time to write.
So here it is, March 2008. I can't believe the 1st decade in the new millenium is almost over! Where does the time go?
We started out year with the worst word you'd ever want to hear-DOWNSIZING! Whenever you hear that, you know what's coming...a layoff. Fortunately, it wasn't immediate AND there's a severence package. Phew! At least my husband had a few months to search for a new job.
In the midst of all this, we found out we were expecting baby #3. I think the most frustrating question we get asked is if this was a surprise. No, it wasn't a surprise...it was in God's plan for all of eternity. We weren't trying, but we weren't preventing either. So to be surprised would be a lie.
I found out on February 13th, but instead of waiting for Valentine's Day to give my hubby the test as a gift, I gave it to him that evening.
With a piece of pizza in his mouth, he opened the box and his eyes popped wide open. I can tell you, he is the happiest Dad in the world. He had been wanting another one and so this was a great gift for him.
