Get Down Tonight

I just found a fun website that tells you what the #1 song was the day you were born. I am "Get Down Tonight" by KC and the Sunshine (or something) band. I love that song and always dance to it and sing it randomly when there is nothing else to say. I think it is karma that it was my song. The song for Gwendolyn is not one have heard of, but I am horrible with names, so I may know it. "Yeah" by Usher feat Lil Jon and Ludacris. Don't know?? I am more of a Country girl these days. I throw in old school hiphop when I am going out. Nothing like Alasnis to get a person up when they are bored. I am more of a movie person, the radio is fine enough for me, I go spend money on purchasing movies anyday.

Got some maternity clothes in the mail yesterday off ebay. Don't think I will last anywhere near 23 weeks in my normal clothes this time. Still don't feel terribly pregnant, only tired. Have some of the same food aversions and some new ones, garlic is not my friend right now.

Is this what I have to look forward to??

Does this mean I am in trouble in 15 years??  I think she looks like her father, I would never get that excited about Busch beer.  This is actually an old picture, but i love it.  I am feeling nostaligic to babies.  I am having a hard time comprehending that I will have an infant in my arms in 9 months.  With Gwendolyn, it took a year to get pregnant, so I had tons of time to wish and plan and dream.  This baby was intended, but I am amazed it happened so fast.  Matt is dieing to tell people.  I had Gwendolyns t-shirt made yesterday so we are ready.  I was planning on waiting till mothers day, but looks like Matt and my Dad may go bear hunting in Valdez.  Plus, I don't know that Matt could hold out that long.  I said that if we had a family meeting between now and then, we would announce.  Looks like we will have one this weekend for family business.  I am not sure how Marwan and Erin will feel, they only had the solo pregnancy for 2 weeks at this point.  I hope they are excited to share this, we're committed.



I feel great with no morning sickness, but would LOVE to have a nap everyday.  I am looking forward to people knowing.

Oh My God, 2 Lines!!

I have been feeling out of sorts, but had NONE of the signs of the first pg, so I peed on a stick and wammo!!! The worst part Matt is out of town till sunday, it is going to kill me to know and not tell him on the phone. I have no idea how far along I am, I have not had a period since May 03. I had no sore boobs, no pee alot, nothing obvious. I am still floored and keep wandering back into the bathroom to look at the line again, wow. I had just foung out my brother and SIL are pg and are expecting in October. I was very concerned that they weren't going to be able to concieve, my SIL has graves disease and that makes it harder. When I found out the were PG, I was very excited and secretly started hoping I wouldn't get PG till July. That way I could loan them all the stuff I have and they would be getting done with stuff when we needed it. Well that won't work now and I am kinda bummed, I was looking forward to sharing. At least now they will be real close in age. My brother is our only chance at real cousins, we have lots of cousins with babies that we claim, if you follow. I am rambling, still in shock. Any great suggestions for telling DH sunday night?? I am thinking about buying a shirt for Gwendolyn that says worlds greatest big sister. WOW, I am so excited!!!!

I have been meaning to post this since friday when I found out, but time has not been my friend. I managed to keep my mouth shut for two whole days without bursting at the seams. I bought a shirt with intentions of having the words "Worlds Greatest Big Sister (to be)" written on it. I bagged that idea for telling Matt. I didn't think I would have the patience to wait for him to notice what she was wearing, not so observant that one. We will use that shirt for telling our families. I decided to have Gwendolyn give him the test stick. Matt had a hockey gave this evening and we only saw each other for a couple minutes before he left, so I waited longer. I gave Gwendolyn her bath and had her in PJ's waiting to say goodnight to daddy after hockey. He came home and stayed down in the garage unpacking things for half an hour. I start stomping on the floor to get him to come up. After twice he opens the door and asks if I want some thing, yeah come say goodnight to baby. He starts up the stairs with a huge cooler in front of him, meanwhile I send Gwendolyn over to the top of the stairs with Daddys' present. She starts waving it around between the rails and I am standing behind her giggling. He asks "whats that, a pregnancy test?" Me, "yep and if you don't believe that one you can see this one" taking the one from the following morning out of my pocket. (yeah I had to take another one, like the first was lieing to me) Matt, wow I didn't think it would happen that fast. It took us a year and then Clomid last time. It's nice to have someone else know my news that I actually talk to. My driving force behind taking the test was the wrong smell of Burger King on friday. When I am pregnant I have an aversion to pattied meat, hamburgers or sausage patties, they are just wrong. Normally BBQ smell appealing, not now. I don't get nauseas, I just do not want that food.

Anyhow, I gave blood yesterday and should find out today an approximate due date. I am still so excited. I took it as a good sign that Matt had a night full of dreams on Sunday. He couldn't remember it all, but he was excited and telling everyone his news. I'll be back when I have a due date.
