Hello! Just a quick post to tell you about my lovely weekend!
On Friday, Neil and I sang a show at the Parkside Lounge, and it went really well! As I mentioned before, my mother-in-law is in town, and so was my friend Jamie; so they both got to attend. Afterwards, we all went out for some super yummy Mexican food! A fun group of friends and family; Me, Ian, his mom, Jamie, her sister Wendy (giver of baby loot) and Angela (who threw me a shower yesterday!)
Saturday we went to Vera's 2nd birthday party. It was so cute and fun, and Vera just seemed to have a wonderful time. And the party was just filled with toddlers; so cute!
Then yesterday; Angela, Wendy, and Jamie threw me a shower. It was just SO lovely. Awesome food, Angela's apartment looked beautiful, and several lovely ladies.
I'll post pictures tomorrow! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! I know I did! :)

a regular ol' update
Well, the ultrasound was a success! It wasn’t as exciting as the last ultrasound, only b/c it was with my regular OBGYN, and my other ultrasound was with an ultrasound tech who spends a lot more time showing you what’s happening in there. But, since I just had an ultrasound a little over a week ago, I was happy with the quick look. Everything is measuring on schedule and I saw plenty of heartbeating. :)
Usually at 7 weeks (almost 8), if you start with a reproductive endocrinologist (Dr. David) you aren’t seeing your regular OB until like week 9 or 10. But, I had to go see her for a separate issue, and therefore had to tell her I was pregnant. SO, I’m currently seeing two doctors, which is just fine with me, because at least for the next couple of weeks, I get to have extra ultrasounds. :) And since I’m constantly worrying that something is wrong in there, it’s nice to have that reassurance.
I have to go in and meet with my hematologist again about my Factor V clotting thing, to make sure that my dosage of Lovenox (blood thinner) is high enough. I’ve been giving myself injections again since I found out I was pregnant, and my stomach is back to looking like someone punched me all over with tiny fists. It’s real purty. Oh well; it’s for a good cause. :)
My nausea is a lot better, though this morning a guy was sitting next to me on the subway eating some sort of hot turkey and egg sandwich and I almost had to get off the train. It smelled SO bad. I think it wouldn’t have been pleasant even if I wasn’t pregnant, but MAN. I had to breathe through my mouth until he finished his gross breakfast. He also chewed with his mouth open and smacked his lips which didn’t help.
I realize I’ve been slacking a bit on updating lately, but it seems as though there aren’t as many things to update recently! I’m going to make an effort to post at least 5 times a week again though, like I was doing at first. I think most of it is; I’m really trying not to get too ahead of myself. It’s really hard, because I’m excited, but I’m quite aware that something could still go wrong. I’m hoping and praying that it won’t, but you never know. So, I hold myself back from looking at strollers, and cribs and reading too many books, because well; you just never know. I’m thinking positively though, just trying to protect myself a bit.
Have a lovely weekend, all! We had company all last week, so this weekend I plan on doing laundry, and a lot of lounging. :)

friday!
Happy Friday, everyone! Woo hoo!! I love Fridays.
So, it is most definitely Fall here in NY- and it's just lovely. Fall makes me crave yummy fall foods; pumpkin things, spice things, apple things. Fall is my favorite.
So, for breakfast today, what I REALLY wanted was this:

and this:
but instead.... I had this:
...which was tasty, but it was no pumpkin scone and pumpkin spice latte. And, I had just regular drip coffee. AH, well. Responsible choices aren't usually as fun. :)
I'm very much looking forward to this weekend. I have a skype date with my friend and her brand new baby on Saturday, and I'm walking in the AFSP Out of the darkness walk on Sunday in memory of my old friend, Mike. It brings awareness to suicide prevention, and I feel so privileged to be participating and helping to raise money and awareness for the second year in a row.
I also want to do some closet cleaning-out. We'll see if that happens. :)
I hope you all have a lovely weekend!

yay for long weekends!
I am so excited for this long weekend. Nothing huge planned; probably a trip to the Farmer's market on Saturday, then babysitting for Vera- the cutest baby ever, and on Sunday, Ian and I are going to take a short little trip up to Peekskill, NY for a little carnival/festival Memorial Day thing. We'll just hop on the train right by us and stay there for the day. I'm excited; I like small town festival things. I'd also like to see the new Sex and the City movie this weekend. Lots of things to keep me distracted from my stupid BBT chart!I hope you all have a lovely Memorial Day weekend!
xoxo
