Random thoughts

A few things, in no particular order:

1. I saw "Twilight" today. I hope if they make movies of any of the sequels they use a different screenwriter and find a new Bella.

2. I'd like to thank the lady sitting next to me in the movie today. Not only were you rude when I tried to get to the empty seat next to you (what do you expect when you're on the aisle?), you also spent the whole movie saying, "What happened?", "Who's that?", and "What's going on?" This added to my experience unmeasurably.

3. I had a doctor's appointment on Thursday. I'm 13 weeks along and got an ultrasound. My baby has a head, legs, a hand I could see, a foot I could see, two legs and a strong heartbeat.

4. I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. We aren't finding out the sex but Kent and I and also my whole family and all our friends are convinced that it's a girl. I asked my midwife what the heartbeat indicated and she said a girl. Then she cheerfully added, "But since I've said that it's going to be a boy!" We'll be happy with whatever we get and I can't wait until it's born to find out!

5. I have purchased two pairs of maternity pants. They are still too big but far more comfortable than my normal clothes.

6. I no longer have morning queasiness but I am still very tired, suffering from acne and getting headaches. Also, thanks to all my mom-friends out there for never mentioning bacne. I was not expecting that one AT ALL. I hope that in the next week or two those things will pretty much be finished.

7. Last Friday (the 14th) I went to the New Kids on the Block concert and it was awesome.

the main guy in twilight played cedric diggory in harry potter... such a cutie!

i have a friend here that is also 3 months along... they are doing the "not find out about the sex until he/she comes..." route... argh... now that means i must be knitting 2 non-gendered blankets...

btw... i can tell you a ton about pregnancy without ever having been pregnant... considering that everyone around me seems to be drinking the water...

i come home this week, can we play??

I'm sorry, but I think they're keeping the the screenwriter AND Bella . . . in fact, that screenwriter is already started on the New Moon script. Anyway, I also wanted to say I am glad I'm not the only one who gets acne during their first trimester. Don't worry, though, it goes away, and then you start glowing or something (I could never tell, but people told me I was).
