Oh and by the way....
I'm pregnant!
Due January 1st, 12 weeks along, I'm feeling mostly good but tired, and we are in the process of deciding what to do, where to have the baby, talking to the boss, looking at hospital options, etc...
Congrats!! I know I felt sooo tired in the beginning of my pregnancy...that was the worst symptom of all because life can and does go on even if you just need a friggin nap! Good luck working everything out...I imagine it must be a bit stressful to go through this somewhere unfamiliar. And love the blog...looking forward to more posts!
Ours is an animal house. We have two adorable and incredibly well behaved dogs; Mckinley (my dog) and Tosh (Patrick's dog). MK is an average looking black lab mix that often gets overlooked, until people see her impressive frisbee skills and dock jumping capabilities. The dog loves to please! Tosh is the belle of the ball, or in her case, belle of the dog park. She is a truly beautiful dog, with a goofy personality, a fear of all things plastic, and is not the sharpest tool in the tools shed, which is only more endearing. She has a dozen nicknames and for ever nickname there is a song or two. We enjoy taking them canoeing (MK swims, Tosh rides along in the boat) camping, hiking, and to our neighborhood bar where they are welcome on the patio. We also have Tuxedo, my 13 year old cat. He is becoming a bitter old man, but is in great health despite neglecting to take him to the vet for the last 5 years. Patrick says he's not too fond of him, but every night tuxedo is curled up in his lap, getting a head rub.
