30 and Pregnant

...Sounds like a great premise to a TV show. Why not follow a 30 year old mom struggling with the day to day life of morning sickness and caring for children? All the while, wondering how she was going to take care of a new baby and afford it. (Please tell me you've seen "16 and Pregnant".) My show would start with me waking up today on my birthday to my kids telling me they spilled cereal all over their beds and floor. So, I get myself out of bed and vacuum it all up and then hurry to the kitchen to grab something to eat before I throw up. I realize that we don't have anything to eat because there is nothing worse than grocery shopping while pregnant. So, I make some french toast using the last slice of bread and two heals.

I think '30 and Pregnant' would be a pretty boring TV show. Although, there are some major perks to being 30, verses 16. I don't have a bum boyfriend that won't stop playing video games long enough to go get a job. And I don't have high school to finish, or even a job for that matter. I'd say I have it pretty good. I have two kids that go to school for half the day, so I have time to take a nap. I have a husband that has a good job and appreciates me. We are constantly asking each other how we were so lucky that we met and got married...and we still love each other....(when we hardly knew each other when we got married.) And I'm so glad he doesn't play video games very often. Although, he does play guitar really loud and pretends he hears me talking to him.

So, I am pregnant!!!...AND 30!!! I feel happy and very lucky. I am 15 weeks and due May 8th. We get to find out the gender on December 5th.

13 weeks 4 days ultrasound. The baby is waving hello.
