The Belles–er, Bellies–of Houston

2009 26 Nov
My friend Betsy and my friend and boss Laura threw me a wonderful baby shower in Houston a couple of weeks ago. In attendance were two good friends of mine who are both pregnant and just a couple of months behind me: Kristin and Betsy. Aren’t we cute with our little bellies?
On another note, how is that I always become good friends with people who are at least a head shorter than I am? Maybe it’s a subconscious ego or self-confidence thing…
On yet another note…I am LESS THAN ONE MONTH away from having a baby–wow!
Michael is ready for Baby Franco to arrive any day now–quite literally. He says that he has a “Man Intuition” that Baby Franco will arrive on Dec. 2. Today, he looked up the weather and happened to see that Dec. 2 is the date of the next full moon. Full moons are apparently famous for being busy times for baby arrivals. What I’m worried about is that Dec. 2 is NEXT WEEK.
We’re not even done taking our hospital classes and reading all of the books I bought…I don’t know if I’m ready for this quite yet…

I've been chronicling things here as I've been learning to love and suffer and laugh and trust in the goodness of God in the ordinary and the extraordinary--with a little espresso and a lot of Divine Mercy.
