a few things rattlin in the noggin

i don’t have any daily reminders that i’m pregnant. the weirdest thing about the fact that there is a life growing in me is that i can’t see anything that’s happening. i can read about the changes that might be going on, but how i wish i could peek in every day—sometimes every hour—just to see him. to marvel at his newly formed eyelids. to watch as his outer ears form. to hear his little heart compete with the sound of galloping horses.

as much as i hate throwing up, sometimes i wish i would—just once—so i can feel like things are progressing normally. (weird, i know.) yesterday morning i felt a little wobbly (kind of like i was carsick), but it wasn’t that bad. really, if that’s as bad as it gets (and everything’s fine inside), then wonderful! i can’t express how affirming the ultrasound/doctor visit was…maybe that’s part of the reason they require monthly visits. :)

i’ve GOT to do a better job with my diet—i know i’m desperately lacking in that area. i’ve been doing an okay job of not having caffeine (i.e. COKE), so i guess i’m not failing entirely. :)

jennie’s wedding is only a little over two months from now…i can hardly believe it! i can’t wait for her beautiful wedding; being involved in it is the biggest honour of my life. she is so close to perfect, i can’t even tell you. (and no, i’m not in love with her—it only SOUNDS like it!!) :)

i am so excited (there are no words)—for this weekend, yes, this very weekend, my friends, i will be going to houston to see my family…and COLPLAY!!!!!! i bought the tickets for me and my sister about six months ago, so i cannot believe the time is finally here. new kids on the block aside (in the very early nineties), i have not been to such a big name concert. keeping in mind that next to waterdeep (who will always hold first place) coldplay is my favourite, you can imagine how i’m bursting out of my skin. (sarah, too.) YES!!! a post-concert update will definitely be written.

oh you are going to have SO much fun! i saw coldplay for the first time at alpine valley in WI and it was nearly - if not - the BEST concert i'd ever been to. i can't wait to hear what you think!!!
