Time to start reading!

People keep telling me that the "What to Expect" book is full of scary information and is a bit alarmist. That hasn't been my experience, but I guess I only did just start.

I have been pretty sick and tired, but they books tell me that is totally normal.

Of course, they say that if i wasn't sick or tired, that is normal too.I wish i could be normal in the non-sick way.....

Uncle Evan was in a musical (Hello Dolly).

I was in a few musicals when I was younger... and a few plays. I can't wait to teach you songs from Phantom and Les Mis..... partly just to bug your daddy who finds most musicals terribly annoying.

Today was the Super Bowl.

But since neither Daddy nor I care a tick about football, we went out for lunch and for a walk.

I had to look up whether or not fish is safe to eat while pregnant (most of it is) before chowing down on my Fish n chips. It's funny, sometimes I go for a few hours without remembering, then I get sick or something triggers my brain and i go, "Oh! I'm having a baby!"

Your Aunt Robin is super talented!
Someday she will have to teach you to knit, i can teach you to crochet!

Anyway, she made you a baby Cthulhu softie. You won't be able to play with it for a while, but darn if it isn't the cutest thing ever.

... you will have to be much much older to read the Lovecraft stories that inspired the Cthulhu softies.....

Tonight I joined Aunt Allison and Uncle Evan to play a game called Carcassonne
It was a lot of fun, even though i lost horribly.

Good life lesson that, sometimes it really is all about the experience of playing the game and it doesn't matter who wins.

When I was little I played a lot of UNO. We had a few board games, but we didn't really play them as a family.  I hope to remedy that with you, Daddy and i are already talking about the games we can't wait to teach you to play!

My latest article in the Community Alliance Newspaper

I have written a few things for them in the past and am pleased to be able to add "regular columnist" to my resume.

This article was about a horrible TV show that, thankfully, got the ax. I hope that TV is better by the time you are watching it.

Being pregnant has had some interesting physical moments.

Like when I realized that my snoring has gone from some slightly wheezy to roaring trucks on a highway.

Poor Daddy!
