Postponed

The ultrasound, due to a scheduling mistake, has been postponed until next Wednesday, April 5th. I was disappointed, but this means I still have something to look forward to!

Overrated

I just finished forcing myself to swallow down the rest of my Ensure Healthy Mom chocolate-chocolate-chip snack bar . At first bite: "Mm. Chocolatey." At second bite: "Mm. Kinda crunchy." At third bite: "Hm. Tastes a little stale." At fourth bite: "I'm not so much liking this anymore." At fifth bite: "OK. I've had enough of this. When will it be gone?" At sixth bite: "There's no way I'd pay for a box of these babies, not even with a coupon." At seventh bite: "This is not just like an energy bar....this is ten times WORSE than even the WORST energy bar." At eighth and last bite: "Whew. I did it. Now....if I can just use this milk here to help me swallow it down before I gag...." Aftertaste (presently experiencing): It tastes like I put two non-chewable prenatal vitamins in my mouth along with cheap Easter chocolate candy and swished it all around for a while. Good idea on pape...

First little scare (blown out of proportion by yours truly)

So, last night, I had my first little scare with this, my second, pregnancy. (You'd think I'd remember every little detail from the first. Somehow pregnancy hormones have a way of making you forget everything....past memories, your phone number, everything.) I sat down on the couch with a magazine, after a long day of painting and wallpaper stripping. I try to relax every evening after Gardner goes to bed, namely so I can sit still and enjoy the baby's acrobatic skills as he or she dances in my belly. Within minutes, I realized I didn't feel the baby. In fact, if I thought back, I hadn't felt the baby move in three or more hours. I jumped up. "The flashlight!" I placed the MagLite on my abdomen, knowing this always worked when Gardner was slumbering and uncooperative. Nothing. I laid on my left side. My right side. My back. I got on all fours. I still felt not even one tiny nudge from within. Initiate freak-out mode. Ken balanced a fine line ...

We've decided

After much, much, much, MUCH consideration, we've come up with Baby Girl Wilson's name at last. Ken and I found the girl's name decision twice as difficult as when we chose a boy's name, and we can't quite figure out why! (Perhaps because there are more choices out there?) We have chosen RAINEY ELIZABETH . Rainey because, well, we just love it. It's cute and feminine. Elizabeth holds special significance....she will be the fourth female to hold that as her middle name, starting with my mom's mother. I am so relieved to have agreed upon a name. I am fortunate enough to have a husband who actually cares enough to want equal say in the baby's naming....some men wouldn't care, I'm sure. Ken was even more opinionated than I, and though that made the process more grueling, I am pleased with the fact that he loves this name as much as I do, and genuinely means it. I'm so excited that we can call her by name now! Oh, and monogram shop, here w...
