Something in the Water?

My neighbor, Erica, hollered to me across the road this morning, "Guess what?...I'm pregnant!"

She's at 2 months and I'm at 3 1/2. I hadn't had a chance to tell her yet and so I hollered back, "Me too!"

I ran over and we were jumping up & down and hugging and her husband, who works nights, came downstairs looking at us like we were insane. This is going to be fun!

They should rename pregnancy, "the waiting game." Wait to tell the news, wait for the morning sickness to pass, wait for each appointment like it's the only thing going on in my life, wait in the doctor's office...

I am so excited for the first ultrasound in 2 weeks! I always said I would want to keep the sex a surprise, but now I just have to know. I have it in my head that it's a boy, and I could be wrong. I want both, so knowing now would just help by being one less thing to wonder about.

Oh my goodness, I'm so glad I found out. Because you're right about the waiting thing.... I just felt like when I found what I was having I could prepare a little better, so that while I was waiting for him to come I could at least not wonder if I needed pink onesies or blue ones.
