It's Saturday night and I took a two hour nap this afternoon trying to sleep off morning sickness so now I'm wide awake and Nate is asleep. He worked some really late nights this past week and then we were out to dinner with his work people until almosst midnight last night. Not too bad for me because these days I have a very strict regimine of napping, sleeping and resting. Nate's worn out though.
It's pouring rain here right now and I love that. I think that I probably like the first few months of the year the best in Sothern California because that's when it rains. Nate and I bought a CD of rain and thunder and used to play it most nights as we went to sleep. I remember a few times also playing it while it was actually raining that way we felt like it was thundering too. But that just got confusing. "Was that real thunder or the CD?" So we stopped.
I'm 7 weeks pregnant on Mon. and counting down the days hoping that morning sickness will wane in a month or two. I was thinking that we should find out the gender of the baby, but not tell anyone that way we don't get flooded with pink or blue things. Maybe I'll just tell everyone to just stick to greens and browns and neutrals regardless of gender. I have a sinking feeling that wouldn't really work though. So much to ponder.
