Last night Cazz and I headed to our first maternity class for couples. It’s just a lecture series, but I was excited to get going, even though I felt like I showed up for class nude like in those crazy dreams because I was worried that the lecturer might call on me to participate and I would be struggling with the language under pressure. However, it turns out that the lecturer had some sort of emergency to deal with and wasn’t able to make it. The lady that was there to help him was very apologetic saying that this has never happened before. So we packed right back up and went home.
Things are going well enough, what with the rapidly growing pancia and baby practicing to be a ballwomb dancer. He’s an active little guy, which is reassuring and quite funny. When he kicks around and my belly jiggles from the inside, I can’t help but laugh. At least I have something to keep me entertained while Cazz is at work all day. Between watching belly, packing our things and eating, the hours fly by and I find myself wondering if we will have time to get things organized before the arrival of our little Peanut. But at the same time, even though I now we can use these extra months, I find myself wishing it was time already. I am the type of person who gets anxious and nervous easily, but would rather just hurry up and get the scary part out of the way. I always volunteer to go first if I have some sort of public presentation. The sooner I begin, the sooner it’s over. And birth just happens to be one of those nerve-wracking events that I am in a hurry to put behind me.
In other news, my package finally arrived late yesterday. It was a whole tray of meat and cheese and sweet products. I guess my mom knows what I like :). Something to enjoy, but not something that we will have to move at the end of February. It’s really too bad that it costs so much to send things from there to here. I’m running low on Doritos… but actually, I have a lot of things back home that would be helpful for our new place. And speaking of, I’d love to have any input on things that I should have for a new (really first) apartment, especially with baby on the way. I’m trying to make a list of things we need to pick up. I have a few basics, but if there are any ideas…feel free to make suggestions.
