I'm a terrible journaler.

It's come to my attention that I've failed to mention an extremely significant life event on here. I blame this on the fact that I almost never think to create an actual post about big things -- just the little "while I'm thinking of it" stuff. So, yeah, Doug and I are expecting our first child! We're expecting her any day now, in fact -- I'm due on Sunday (January 11). Of course, I've been told I'm showing absolutely zero progress toward labor, so, uh... who knows when she'll actually get here? SOON, I hope! It's getting a little difficult, y'know, moving and walking and all...

Hopefully soon! ;) Cause then the really fun part comes. Granted, very little sleep. But, oh, the real joy of just watching a new baby sleep! It's an indescribable feeling that only a new parent can know! Believe me, it makes labor worth every minute. :)

When I was pregnant with Jen, because of some problems, they literally didn't know for certain when I was due. So, the date spread was Dec 20th to Jan 20th. (Back in the *olden* days when they didn't have the tools to do more accurate predicting) Anyway, Barb (very close friend) was also due, around the 20th-25th of December. We were THE Cantors for Shepherd of the Sea and Chapel on the Thames. So Father informed us that he would have a Doctor at every Mass .... just in case! ;) Barb had Brian on December 20th and Jen hung on to arrive with the Three Kings on January 9th. They used Brian for the Baby Jesus on Christmas Eve. :)
