This was the easiest way I could think of to get the word out....
If you are planning on attending the baby shower in NY on 11-11-06...and you are wondering what to do with your gift (especially is it's either heavy or big)...please, feel free to bring it to the party. What I can't bring on the plane will be shipped home the following week.
I will be in town from 11-6-06 to 11-12-06 and returning with Michael on 11-17 and leaving the day before Thanksgiving, so I will have plenty of time to ship things home.
If you do have any questions, please feel free to ask...if need be and you still can't decide...send it to Florida. Whatever is easiest for you.
Can't wait to see all of you!

Baby Kick Boxer
This is the Dad, yep that is me. Last night, I felt the baby kick. Jen says I dont know how it feels, but I do as when baby kicks her, sometimes Jen kicks me.
I dont know about you, but I wodul rather have a 2" foot than a 7" foot!
Baby gets her first Teachings next week, I will start with counting and work up to the NASDAQ by Feb.
This weekend, will make window Drapes and they will be pink...

Dear Complaints Department-
Oh my aching back, indigestion that never goes away, sleeplessness, being tired all the time...does it ever end?
I know that it does and I know that this is all for a great cause...bringing a life into this world. One I can't wait to meet. I had no idea when people said that their back ached during the last 3-4 months of pregnancy that it could be this uncomfortable.
As many of you know, Michael and I have been traveling alot and will continue to do so until after thanksgiving. i have to tell you that being stuck on a plane for more than 10 minutes is pure tourture. There is no comfy position either to sit or to sleep ( which is all I do on flights, sleep). The nice thing is we can pre-board and get the better seats, which is very nice. The flight staff is also extra nice to us and very understanding when the seatbelt sign is on and I am making a dash to the bathroom.
My shirts are starting to get way too tight...even the big ones, so I have put them away until next year when to me they will be all new again. I am into full maternity gear. I thought all the books and people were kidding when people told me that they got tired of wearing the maternity clothes every day, I thought...how bad can it be?...well, when you have pairs of pants and 10 shirts that you love to wear, you learn to love them and to do laundry every few days.
There is one thing I am looking forward to washing...baby clothes, I know that there will be alot of them, but think of how many you can wash in one load compared to our clothes. My goodness, you can wash the whole dresser of baby clothes compared to one week worth of our clothes. WOW.
For those of you that may be wondering...no, there is nothing in Victoria's room yet, except the shell of a crib, 2 blankets, a dresser and some curtains. There are clothes in the dresser, much to my happiness. I have to resist the urge to wash them every day. I know that I have plenty of time to get that all done, but still...
Funny, I couldn't wait to start our family...now I am scared to death and wish that time could stand still for a few more months. The nice thing is...I have lots of friends to help when I have questions...like what to wear to the hospital and what diapers work the best and do they always drool that much?
It always feels like we have lots of time to prepare for baby to come home, but I know time is slowly running out...hoooray!

And the belly grows on...
Just a quick note and a picture to show you the ever growing belly. As i may have mentioned, Victoria is practicing her Irish folk dancing at night...I guess me laying on the tummy gives her a nice flat area to practice on. I am going to miss sleeping on my tummy, I know it's just a matter of time.
Other than that, all things are going well. Her kicks are getting stronger, though no hiccups yet, can't wait for that to happen...just to watch the belly bounce for a few moments.
anyway, off to bed we go. Good Night!

Missing in Action
As I got dressed this morning, I realized that I am missing a few body parts. They were there last month so I don't understand where they went.
Things missing:
Belly Button
Knees
half of my feet
ankles (only on rare occassions)
After having a wonderful and inspiring chat with Dani and Brian, wonderful friends of mine, i was informed that this is normal. I guess I didn't realize that parts would go missing so soon.
Everyday I wake up and take inventory of the things that I can still see...which isn't that hard. I can still see my toes, so I know that somewhere down there are my feet, hopefully, otherwise I would be walking funny!
It's all worth it, the less I can see over the belly, the bigger I know Victoria is getting. I can't wait to meet her, I am sure that i have said that alot, but I can't. The kicks are great, they let me know she's there and wants to say hello, I'm up! ah the joys of parenthood, even before they are born. I can see why pregnant women glow, they are just excited...about everything!
