Well, yet again, I've fallen off the blogging wagon. This is due in part to serious computer issues (laptop is burnt), holiday madness and a general lack of summarizing ability.
Christmas was lovely. We woke up and I definitely forgot that it was Christmas because I proceeded to tell my wacked dream in great detail to John, who always does a fine job of feigning interest. Then we trotted over to the Christmas tree and unwrapped our gifts. John got me a few books, including 2 gigantic crossword puzzle treasure troves and a replacement for a book that I left on a plane a few months ago. He also got me a beautiful maternity shirt, which he insists is a pajama top. I think it's way too nice and I wore it today to prove it. After watching some Lost Season 5- one of my gifts to him, we took the 30 cupcakes Aja dropped off the night before down to the shelter and remarked on the line outside of the movie theater. :) The rest of the day was basically me sleeping intermittently as I was super tired for absolutely no reason other than growing a baby.
Christmas Eve was wonderful too- Dan and Richard came over and I cooked my first indoor steaks ever. They were pretty dry but definitely edible. I also made mashed potats, asparagus and salad and Dan made his not-s0-famous latkas.
I go in on Wednesday for a check up. I'm going to mention the UTIs I keep getting and perhaps request an ultrasound- mostly to see if we can get a gender guess. My body hasn't changed much. I've lost some weight because I've been eating much less and more consciously. Yesterday marked week 15 and the second trimester has been problem-free so far. John continues to be the happy and supportive partner that he always has been. I couldn't ask for anything more, except for another glass of milk 14 times a day.
