The Blog You've All Been Waiting For

I wish that I had a cool picture to post with this blog, but sadly I do not.
I'M PREGNANT!
FAQs:
When are you due (d.u.e. - sorry for the earlier mis-spell. Let's blame it on the pregnancy, shall we?)? March 11, so I am 13 weeks pregnant.
Were you trying? Why do people feel the need to know this? Yes, we were.
What are you having? We won't know until week 20 at the earliest.
Do you want to know what you are having? I don't, but Freddy does. Just yesterday I was talking to my best friend about this. She reminded me that Freddy isn't as involved in the whole process as I am, so if he really wants this I should probably give in. So, I am. Thanks for the good advice, Lesley.
What do you want? I always thought that I wanted a girl, but now I really don't care. Boy or girl - either one is a blessing.
Have you been sick? A little, but not as much as some women. The nausea has subsided (thank you Zofran) and I feel like I have more energy now, which is great! I'll spare you the list of symptoms but I will tell you that fatigue tops the charts.
Are you still running? Yes, but not as much as I used to. Now I only run 2 miles a day about twice a week. I think running 2 miles now is harder than running 6 miles was before I got pregnant. And pregnancy pilates is amazing!
So, there you have it - our exciting news! I will keep you all posted!
Oh, and mark one more off my Thirty by Thirty List! Start a family - Check!
