Sundays

Hello and Happy Sunday. And what a happy Sunday it is - especially since I was able to nap his afternoon. I haven't been sleeping well so whatever I can get during the day helps a lot. Mother Nature knows what she is doing. If it takes sleepless nights and random naps now to get used to how life will be in 25 weeks or so, then so be it!

The last week was very busy for both Leo and I. Leo worked well into the late hours of the day doing his whole recruiting thang. Pray for lots of hires! I have been busy too and this week will be much of the same - an Arbonne meeting here, an Uppercase appointment there and then all the other miscellany I have going on. However will I find the time to register for the little one's new belongings?! That is next on the list. I have been doing some research but Leo and I just have to make that Babies R Us trip and investigate all the doodads in person. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to it or not.

In other pregnancy news, let me answer the questions you are dying to know the answers to. . .

No, we don't know the sex yet. We should be able to find out in a month or so. There is the smallest of chances our next appointment will reveal something but I'm not expecting to walk away with that knowledge just yet.

Yes, my belly is growing but I don't think it's much to gawk at. Well, I personally do since I look down and see less of my feet than usual, but that's just my perspective. Soon it will be more apparent (rather than an akward guess) and we will find some way to post a slideshow of the changes so far. I would never put pictures up that just show my belly in a before without the after. I don't even like being photographed at the beach. But when there is comparison and a human being growing inside me involved it's a little different.

Moving on, no I have no specific cravings. I am pickier some days; I get an idea of what I want to eat in my mnd and there is nothing else I desire until I get it. But since it's different every day I don't know if that would be classified as a craving. Sometimes I want salty (and yes pickles do taste more delicious on some days) and some days it's all about ice cream. But I do alway have a large baggy of goldfish crackers near by and everyday is a new eating adventure.

No, I still have not been sick (knock on wood). One day last week I did have a little heaving attack but it was just because I took my vitamin on an empty stomach. Never do that. But since my stomach was empty, nothing came of it so it doesn't count as getting sick. Hey, you asked!

And finally there are no names picked and we're not likely to tell you anyway. Leo and I are having fun throwing different ones back and forth. Maybe I wouldn't call it fun - it's a bit stressful when the fate of your childrens popularity and possibly it's personality rides on your idea of what's cute, unique and meaningful in a name. I'm sure that all our ideas will be thrown out the window anyway when he/ she is born. They will probably come looking like something we never thought of and it will stick. I've heard it happen!

So that's that. We are resting before another busy week begins and I am counting down the days until we leave for our weekend trip to Asheville. Enjoy the first day if Autumn!

BTW, don't mind our freaky looking baby twirling around over there on the right. I couldn't find a better one. I figure as long as ours looks better than that then we are ok!
