Tomorrow...

Tomorrow I will be able to say I am due next month. I still have a month and a half, but tomorrow November hits, and I am due in December... Oh goodness. I am beginning to feel more prepared. We had our shower on Saturday, it ended up going really well. There weren't as many people there, but it may have been better that way, I might have gotten overwhelmed if too many more came. Everyone was very generous, I ended up with many of the things that I needed. My brother was the most surprising though. He sent my mom a video camera to give to me at the shower. Goodness, was not expecting that. Now everyone wants to know if we plan on taping the birth, the answer is NO! We will probably tape some of the after math, but I have never wanted to be that kind of actress, I am fine with limited people ever seeing that, who would want to watch it later anyways? Crazy people, that's who.

We also had friends Ben and Suzi over for dinner last night, which, as usual, forced us to do some cleaning, sometimes we invite people over for just that reason, to make us clean. Well, it helps us. So, our apartment is cleaner, we are getting there! Just 999,999 more things to do!

We had our first class last Thursday, on breastfeeding. It was really good. You should check out what my cynical husband had to say about it on his blog. (I will try to figure out how to do a link to it.) We did the tour of the birth center on Sunday. If we hadn't been there already for the gallbladder thing, it might have been more informative, but I guess it wasn't totally useless. We get a big room, all to ourselves, it has a jacuzzi tub, she gets to stay in my room (unless I ask them to take her to the nursery which I don't plan to do, that is a cop-out, and I can't think of anything I will want more than to stare at the little wonder that will be my daughter, screw sleep, who needs it?). We do need to pre-register though. That would be a good thing.
