Sooo....I officially can't wear my wedding rings anymore. It was getting close but now they are so tight I would rather not have to have them cut off my finger in order to be removed. (Another lovely pregnancy side effect.)So I put them in a safe plac and replaced them with a $10 silver ring I bought in Nyack years ago that slips on and off nicely. I can't be ringless - I just feel too naked in such a state.
In more exciting news, we got a package from Nanni today. Nanni's packages, especially around Christmas, are always exciting because I know exactly what's inside. Every year, for a long as I can remember, she has sent out Christmas cookies to just about everyone. If you are aware of the size of the family then you know how huge this task is. It must be growing exponentially as the years pass with kids getting married and having kids and whatnot. I don't know how she does it. But she has been faithful to the task for years. She aslo sends along a calendar for the coming year with important dates circled or marked in some fashion. We now have our birthdays, our anniversary and now the anticipated due date of Baby Trend marked in blue ribbon on there. Amazing how each year adds new events to the calendar every year. And she stays on top of every since one. Nanni also included her cookie recipes in the package this year. Perhaps she is sending a hint?! Maybe we should all give her a break next year and send her cookies instead. Anyway, thanks Nanni! You're the best!
