#27 and #2
Last week was an exciting week for us! On Wednesday I turned 27! Wow, that actually sounds a lot older than 26. I am now in my late 20s and don't know how I feel about that. It was a fun day though. Thank you to everyone who called, emailed, posted a comment, or came over! Adam took good care of me, of course. He made breakfast and dinner for me. And Mom came down and took me shopping and to lunch, so I didn't have to cook at all! Friday night Adam took me on a date, which was so nice. Earlier in the week he'd asked what my favorite restaurant was and I said I didn't know because I like bits and pieces: Olive Garden's salad and breadsticks but not their meals, Training Table's turkey sandwich, etc. I didn't know how carefully he listened until Friday when he showed up with Olive Garden salad and breadsticks for me and a Table Training turkey sandwich! We ate at the Tanner Building then went to the BYU basketball game. It's amazing how nice a couple hours alone with him is! He also rented "Ever After" and "Star Wars" so we could finish the night with a movie, but I was too tired. Which leads me to my next point...
Yep, you probably guessed it: Baby #2 is on the way!!! Friday we went to the doctor and heard the heartbeat, so now it's out in the open. Here are the answers to the most common questions I've gotten:
I'm 13 weeks along, due May 22. Marian and this one will be 2 years and 4 months apart.
I've been feeling OK. Work has made things a little rough, since I get to bed around 1 or 1:30 when I work then have to get up with Marian. The next day I usually felt pretty icky and tired. I don't really have morning sickness, just evening sickness. I've done lots of crockpot meals because cooking in the morning is much easier than cooking in the evening.
As far as thoughts about gender--I kind of think this one's a boy, but kind of want another girl. I would be completely happy either way and just want him or her to be healthy!
And how Marian feels about it--I think she has no idea and doesn't understand at all. Hopefully as I get bigger it will make more sense.
We are very excited and grateful for this new adventure!
