Girls Gone Child

Yep, took a little bit of a hiatus...being rushed to the Emergency room not once, but TWICE, in one week totally sucked...and so did not really feeling right for about three weeks...and the finding out, uh, I'm pregnant.

I have no idea if the insane vomitous vertigo was that extreme morning sickness, of just a fluke that I got sick right when I conceived, thus making the sickness part that much worse but yeah...I had to spend some time re-adjusting to my new status.

So, that's effectively put an end to jumping on the single-speed and cruising around late at night, drinking lots of beer, and getting up to lots of tomfoolery...but it's alright. In fact, now that i'm four months in and the bump is getting to be noticeable to more than just my eyes, i'm alright with that. That 'nesting' instinct they keep talking about...yeah, I found out that's true as well...i've been on a cleaning, organizing, and crazy-time getting-shit-together spree.

Yeah, I have all the panics "OMG, I don't make enough to raise a kid, omg, but LOVE my job, now I have to fit a kid into the mix, OMFG I don't know how to change a diaper!!!!!!!" kind of moments...but let's be realistic. It's not just me, my wonderful husband is half in charge of the kid, together we make enough money, our house has PLENTY of room, and there's two sets of grandparents chomping at the bit to kick us off to work and babysit. This baby will be well loved!
