Sox Win the Series... no sacrifice needed

Back in 2004 when the Red Sox were in the World Series, I got in a car accident and totalled my car. A couple days later the Sox won the Series for the first time since 1918. At the time I joked that I had sacrificed my car to them and helped them win the series.

Well fast forward to 2007, Red Sox are in the Series again and doing rather well. When they won in 4 games I was totally amazed. I hadn't lost anything (like my car) though Lee did lose his job about a week before the Series started. But I don't think that really counts..

Pregnancy Stuff

I have to admit, I am loving being pregnant so far... Ok so the 3 million trips to the bathroom in a day are not all that fun, nor the queasiness that I get if I haven't eaten something in a while. But I'm liking that there is a reason that I weigh close to what I weighed in January 2005 (when I joined Curves). I even don't mind too much that Lee is starting to call me FAT. I'm even starting to get a belly. Heck I'm earning it... and it's not easy to eat for three. Then again I've been told by my OB that I shouldn't eat for Three and that if I'm not hungry that it's ok not to eat.

I do miss being able to do all the stuff that I used to though. Noone will let me lift anything heavier than say 5 or 10 lbs and getting dressed in the morning and staying comfortable can be a challenge. Even working out at Curves (though still fun) is getting challenging.

I can't wait to see the babies again. I am going for an Ultrasound and Bloodwork on Tuesday morning. I might try to do some quick errands too afterwards. We'll see how I feel after the ultrasound. But I'm taking the day off from work. That's a definite.

Ok I can finally tell

I finally was able to talk to the 2 people I needed to tell my news to before anyone else knows.

I AM PREGNANT....

It took a long time to get to this place in my life and quite a few very legal drugs prescribed by my very nice and really great doctors at MGH. My personal doctor at the clinic called us to congratulate us on our achievement and I think that I'll be saving his message for a while..

Lee and I went up to oldest brother's house to tell him and his wife the very good news. They seemed to be happy for us but at the same time concerned about the financial aspects of all this.

Then when we got home I called my brother who lives in Texas to tell him and he was very happy for us also.

Lee's brother happened to have called us tonight and we broke the happy news to him also.. 2 more siblings to go on that side.. one of which we don't have contact information for and the other who is hard to get in contact with. We'll reach them eventually. But the important people know and that's what matters.

Be prepared to be really bored by all my pg related posts to come in the future..
