We had a lovely dinner out last night. I had greek salad and sea scallops and a bite of Matt's filet... I rarely have tummy distress and I hate to burden you all with this kind of information but let's just say that I have never had GI cramps so bad that I thought I was going to cry on the way home. Then when I got home I ran into the house and straight to the bathroom... Ugh. Matt told me to leave the keys on the stairs (they were his set) through the bathroom door and for some crazy reason I thought he told me he was leaving them on the stairs... I figured that he had pulled them out of the door as he followed my mad dash inside. So this morning when he was searching for them and I started to realize that he never had them last night I knew right away they were still hanging in the lock on the outside of the front door all night. Sheesh. It's a darn good thing I am married to the sweetest man in the world... Even now when I do something stupid like that I flinch a little inside preparing for the wrath of the ex.... God bless Matty. Poor thing. Putting up with a pregnant blonde...

I was nervous at dinner because only one person didn't know I was pregnant because she works where I am trying to get hired and I don't want her to be in an awkward position of knowing when I haven't told them at all... I'm so excited to tell her the great news but it will have to wait!

We were supposed to go to dinner again tonight with another one of Matt's vendors but he is going to Cincinatti tomorrow for work overnight and I am pooped today so I think he is going to cancel... If I didn't have Bible Study I would be going straight to bed when I got home but I'll make it a few more hours with the girls. I only have to go about 10 minutes from home tonight, so it won't be so bad.

It's still kind of slick out here and there with roads and sidewalks re-freezing overnight. I am an absolute freak on ice maybe because I feel so far away from the ground at 5'10". I carried the recycle bin down to the curb this morning in my dressy work shoes with slick soles and was certain that I was going to bite it. But I made it all in one piece so I am surviving yet another day I think

I have been doing much better drinking all my water these last couple of days and I think that is helping... I have also developed this odd craving for tapioca pudding... I almost stopped on my way home last night before going out to dinner and I was thinking... what are you doing??? You are going out to dinner in a couple hours!! Maybe tonight on my way home from Study I will swing by the grocery and get some. lol.... I have subconciously avoided coffee since we've been home from Fl. Even there I had maybe 2 or 3 cups that I never finished. I've just kind of phased off of it. Now I won't worry about having a latte on the weekends with Matty. Eggbert won't be OD'ing on caffiene anytime soon.

MIL wants to tell her 2 sisters about Eggbert but I know we want to tell them ourselves so we may try to make a quick run to the 'farm' this Saturday or Sunday morning. Then we can see the horses!

I better go... work is staring at me. Hugs to all! B

Weird facts...
*I brush my teeth with hot water ... It makes the bristles softer.
*I hate tax time... something always goes wrong with mine and I rarely get a return back
*I'm obsessed with 'baubles' and I feel naked without earrings or a necklace... I made Matt stop at the store once when I forgot to put a pair on before I left the house...


16:37:00 EST --OMG, I can't believe how gassy I am. I have never been like this before and all the books say it's a sure thing during pregnancy. Wow, I guess they are right. Blech. I feel like the Good Year blimp. It's not like you are 'farty' or anything. But that's the problem. None of it comes out. You just fill up with air and feel all bloaty. EWww! I think I will be sticking much smaller portions of very mild foods for awhile. Yikes. Before I float away. Sheesh.
