Pinenut Update

I listened to music today.

Although that may not seem like a big deal, it is. I feel like my life has been in such a fuzzy, horrible funk and now it is not. It is like I am in the Munchkin Land full of color. And, really, nothing outstandingly good has happened to me. In fact, there have been many stressful things, and in spite of it all, I am happy and singing and doing my hair again.

I have drugs and they are good. I wish I could be on a commercial for these drugs, because I think they are stupendously fantastic. I have not gagged, thrown up, or dry heaved in 2 days. And, people, that is a wonderful thing. These drugs, while magical, are also very expensive and lucky for me, my insurance (which ends in 4 days) made them affordable to me. They would have cost $1100! Can you believe that?! I cannot.

Also, I got to see Pinenut for the first time. He/she is doing very well, and only had one head, two arms and two legs. I am hoping that means that is all that he/she will grow, so my thoughts of having a two-headed baby are put to rest, but I am not sure what week the "second head" growth takes place.

They gave me a little picture of it and it is so cute. Just invision a tiny little baby, with a large head and a tail (I think the tail looking thing was its umbilical cord, but it looked like a tail or something else that boys only have, but I know that that hasn't started growing yet). Or, it could be that Pinenut will have a tail, but that is okay, because we can take care of that, and maybe Ozzie would like it more.

It was just so weird to actually see a tiny thing living inside of me! They said it's actually size is of a kindey bean. So little, yet causing so much havoc to its mama.

So, that's all I have. Today is the last day at USRowing, and it is sad. It is also the day that Jake proposed to me, and it is also Big Daddy's birthday! He is 39, I think. (Happy Birthday, Dad!)

I hope everyone has a good weekend.
