The Secret is out...ITS A BOY!!

We just wanted to spread the word that we are having a lil' boy come May. We know with all of our close friends and family he will be welcomed into this crazy world. For now we enjoy all the wonderful experiences of being pregnant. One good thing is that Lori's morning sickness has slowly subsided. We will keep you posted as we get closer to May as things develop. As for now, baby (keikikane or baby boy) and Lori are doing well and on the right track. We hope your Christmas was blessed and may the blessings continue into the New Year. Love to you all.

Maternity Jackpot!

I hit a maternity clothes jackpot on Thursday night. My dear friend, Karen, had been saving all her maternity clothes to pass on to me when it was my turn. Sophie, Sergio's wife, also sent me some clothes that she has outgrown. She's due early next February.

I am so excited! I went shopping for clothes a while back and was very disappointed in the selection and was a little worried since my baby "bump" is quickly becoming more than a bump! No more worries since I now have a closet full of clothes. WOW--I feel like I could do my very own fashion show.

I am so blessed to have such thoughtful, caring friends in my life. And thanks to Serg for hauling them through 3 states to get them to me!! You guys rock!

Baby bump!

I will admit, I had to wear my first pair of maternity pants this week. It's seems my belly grew a bunch in just 2 days! I had 2 students ask me if I was going to have a baby, too! OK so whoever told me you really don't show until about 4.5 months was WRONG! WAY WRONG! It's so exciting and scary at the same time.

I am still tired, but not as nauseated as I have been. The only thing that still bothers me is raw chicken and that yucky, smelly popcorn a co-worker has to have EVERY day at lunch. (I think it would bother me even if I wasn't pregnant.) IT IS GROSS and it seems to bother others at lunch, too. Anyway, Sam has been really good about handling/cooking chicken so I don't have to. WHEW! I'll keep you posted on futher developments.
