Last week, Bill and I took some vacation time since Bill had a number of days to burn before the end of the year. We decided to stay in town for a “staycation”. It was my first and not so bad! I had plenty of things on the “to-do” but it didn’t get done. We went to Babies R Us and it was craziness… I had no idea there were so many baby products. It was a quick realization that we are moving into a new stage of life- parenthood. In addition, we started to look into daycare. That stirred up a whole new conversation, “how can anyone afford kids these days?” Of course, the week couldn’t go by without many fun meals – dim sum, good Mexican food and a tray of warm chocolate chip cookies. My comment as I was eating them, “it’s so good, it’s like crack!”
We also met up with Bill’s parents and finally broke the news. Bill gave his Dad an early birthday card with an ultrasound pic of the ‘high-five’. Even though this will be #13 for the grandparents, they were ecstatic. Bill’s Dad went around the restaurant and started telling people. His Mom couldn’t wait to tell the siblings and we drove around to their homes – too funny.
Bill can now feel Adzuki moving around. If he puts his hand on my belly, the moving starts in a few minutes. It’s really fun… kind of like he’s trying to say hello!
