The Second Day

Saturday, December 19th

I woke up exhausted again.  T and I laid in bed and called my parents again.  We were all like kids- laughing and planning and joking.  Then we called T's sister.  I couldn't have scripted a better reaction.  She laughed and cried and screamed with happiness.  This will be the first baby on both sides of our family, and this little bean is already so loved.  T and I walked the dog, ate lunch, called my best friend in Chicago and told her the news.  She was having a Christmas party that night and we conspired to make fake cocktails to throw people off the trail.  Then I napped.  For three hours.

I met another friend and her brother for dinner.  I want to tell everyone I see about my little bean, but feel like I have to wait until I go to the doctor on Tuesday.  I guess I just want a grown up professional person to tell me it's real.
