It's a done Diehl

AT LAST. The news is out! After weeks of agonizing, joyful torture - we are finally public. And by public I mean that we announced on facebook that we are having a BABY!!!!

*Deep Sigh of Contentment*

Now I can finally start writing about what's really going on in our life (/my body). We are 9 weeks as of yesterday, and next Thursday we will have a new ultrasound of little Dotson (=Daughter or Son - not actually the front runner for its name). Hopefully we'll get to hear a heartbeat then.

For now, I'm feeling pretty good. A little hungry most of the time. And by that I mean every hour on the hour I feel like I have a tapeworm living inside of me. I eat at least two breakfasts, maybe 3ish snacks before lunch, early lunch, a few more granola bars and fruits before I get off (4:30), and then I barely make it home before I start gnawing on the steering wheel. One and a half dinners and then I'm pretty good for the night.

You know, for a human the size of a grape, Dotson sure is making a ruckus. Pushing around in there, blowing me up like a balloon, eating man-sized portions of my meals...Sweet Moses. Tonight after my second (and a half) dinner Scott predicted that Dotson was going to be humongous. Very encouraging :]

The only other "symptom" I've really had is feeling a twinge drained of energy which is why I need to sign off for the night. I was up waiting until my bedding laundry was done, and now that the buzzer has gone off, it's time for me to shut my blurry eyes and get some rest!
