I went to the doctor this week and the idea of being pregnant was solidified by the ultrasound, not only giving me a due date but a picture of the little creature. I say creature as at this age, they are really quite grotesque in the black and white grainy shots transmitted through the blue jelly and layers that separate us. Really quite haunting, but what a mover. Constantly wiggling-and I really had no idea that they moved much yet. Regardless, I am due on May 12th, with a promise of induction a week to ten days early. So this pregnancy is valid now. To me anyway.
We are trying to leave for Phoenix on Saturday, however, if we do that our children will not be able to go trick or treating. See, in a small Texas town, when Halloween is on Friday, they move it to Saturday so that everyone can still go see the Friday night lights. So, if we leave we will miss it. We are in a bit of a conundrum. But that will solve itself in time and the children will not go without, that is a promise.

i will write the date on the calendar..and hopefully will get to visit at some point after the child is born. also..go trick or treating in vernon or wichita and then they still get to go. or just go to the family..i don't know..just a thought. love. also..no details necessary, he is a friend with an almost-fiance in germany who needed a date. that's me. dinner, outdoor showing of the play sweeney todd where the actors used the script. it was fun. nothing exciting.
Seth has changed our password at least twice and I haven't been able to comment. Glad things are going well for you and that you've laid eyes on that little creature. I think of you often. Hope you're enjoying your time in Arizona.
