It's Friday! (and payday) Does it Get Any Better??

Well, pretty much all the students in 6th grade know, and the word is spreading amongst 7th and 8th graders. It's been a fun week---the kids' reactions are PRICELESS! Most of them think we are CRAZY for having kids. I find that very amusing! Everyone of them has an idea for a name. To solve what was bound to be an hour long discussion, I said I'd put a suggestion box in my room. They liked that idea. Every boy wants us to have a boy, every girl wants us to have a girl. You gotta love 11 and 12 year olds!

Cravings so far (I can't recall if I put this down already and I'm too lazy right now to go back and check):
1. SALT, SALT, SALT!
2. Pickles (again, SALT!)
3. Russian Hamburgers (with SALT...ok, this may just be because we just made 34 of them)
4. Root beer
5. Milk (Lots of it!)

Adam's cravings:
1. Anything FOOD
2. Milk (Lots of it!)

Our worries:
1. Having a healthy baby
2. Providing for our baby

Our joys:
1. Discovering new things (like the wall of pacifiers at Babies R Us)
2. Feeling the baby (ok, that's my joy right now, but Adam still thinks it is VERY cool)
3. Each doctor's appt. (little heartbeat, measurements, ultrasounds...)
4. Changing/adapting together
5. Sharing our views and dreams
6. Laughing about all the nicknames our baby is bound to have (and that's BEFORE Uncle Jimmy...)

What we're feeling right now:
1. Excited/Giddy
2. Anxious/Nervous
3. Worried
4. So "In Love" with each other and baby
5. Happy/Content/Joyous
Basically, everything all at once! :)

It's a wonderful life! We're enjoying the roller coaster! Have a great weekend!
