Before I Forget

I'm thankful for the love in my life, for my wonderful family, and for our good health. Hoping everyone has a wonderful and filling Thanksgiving day. I'm pretty sure I will!

Made an apple cranberry pie tonight, which was supposed to be part of tomorrow's dessert, but it was so good only one small dish of it is left. Ha! We're having a pretty traditional meal tomorrow. Roasted turkey breast, stuffing, green bean casserole, a little bit of mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce (canned jellied and a dish of fresh cranberry sauce).... And rice, of course. I seem to have forgotten about the gravy though. Oops. I'm sure we'll manage to whip something up. Oh, and a pumpkin cheesecake. It all sounds good, but I can't wait to eat that stuffing. My favorite part of the meal!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I waited a LONG time for this!! Now, Amazon has Ally McBeal: The Complete Series DVD set for $78.99 today only as part of their Gold Box deal. Grab it now for this price before it's done or gone. I bought mine at Costco a couple of weeks ago for $99. Ouch.

Yay!!!

Well, there's another little peanut on the way!! We went to the doctor last week Tuesday. I took about 6 home pregnancy tests. A little overboard, but the first few were the Equate ones, and the line was faint. Anyway, once we got to the doctor, the nurse didn't make me pee in a cup, which I was astounded by. She took me to the ultrasound room and I was thinking, gee, I hope I really am pregnant, otherwise we're not gonna see anything!

But, once the doctor came in and started, the fears subsided somewhat. He did all kinds of measurements, and it wasn't until he said Congratulations was I relieved.

The estimated due date is June 15th.

I've been taking it easy, not wanting anything to cause a problem after last time. My workouts are pretty much done with. I'm too exhausted anyway, but am hoping to take Billy for a walk today to the grocery store. Exhaustion, nausea, bloating, indigestion.... welcome back! I welcome it all back if that means the baby will be healthy.

Now I need to dig the maternity clothes out and see what I can wear. Apparently after the first pregnancy you tend to show sooner.... my clothes are getting a bit too tight!
