- being hungry (easily fixable, I know)

Loves:

- that I'll be seeing my family this weekend
- feeling the baby move
- baby clothes
- work day finally over
- actually having the energy to consider going to the gym tonight
- skin really clearing up after initial rush of pregnancy hormones

Recent Recap

It's been about a week or so since I've updated this blog. Hopefully I'll keep getting better and better at updating this one. This past weekend we had some of Argentinian's relatives staying with us. It was really nice and fun to meet them. They were so sweet and bought us a video camera for our wedding gift. They also bought a couple outfits for the baby.

I've been battling a cold or something (I hope it's not allergies, as that takes away all hope it will go away soon) the last 5 or so days. I am finally able to breath comfortably through my nose. Though one is still stuffy a majority of the time. But, it is at least getting better.

This weekend we are going to Pasadena to meet up with my family (well, sans mother) for our what seems to be annual weekend together. At least with my dad.

The pregnancy is going well. I felt the baby move the other night in a "I'm sure that's the baby and not my stomach digesting" sort of way. It was....strange. But great. I've never felt anything like that before (obviously). And I can't wait to feel it more regularly. So far I haven't felt anything so definite again. But I'm sure as the weeks go on I will.

Month

Well, it's been a month since Argentinian and I have gotten married. And it's going wonderfully. It unfortunately seems our honeymoon will likely be put off for a while longer, as we are expecting a baby (a boy!) at the end of the year, Christmas to be exact, and I think I rather save up my days for that. We can always take a vacation. My father has already offered to watch the little guy when we decide to go on one. Very nice.

So... nothing else besides the big news of a baby to report. We went last Friday for an ultrasound, and everything looks like it's going well. The kid even appears to have a cute profile. We're both very excited, and can't wait to meet him. I am hoping these next five or so months go by quickly. I just want to get to the fun part (though I know it will be tons of work) of actually having the baby here with us.
