i am 35 weeks pregnant today. this is how i feel:



most recent ultrasound pictures are now up in the ultrasound gallery!

good news: our doctor agrees with the ultrasound technician and we're now going to try for a vaginal birth. lions and tigers and bears...oh my! mike's working on a page where you can guess our baby girl's birthday, time of birth, and weight. details to follow shortly.

a pregnancy board i participate in had a "10 things about you" post. here are 10 things about me that you may or may not know.

1. i met my husband in june, 2000. he emailed me shortly after i started working at his company to see if i was interested in joining the company's motorcycle club.
   
   
2. My husband and i started dating on july 4, 2002. we confessed our love for one another and talked about kids and marriage on august 28th. we tried and conceived the week of september 25th. we tested positive on october 4th. he proposed to me sometime around october 10th, we were married on november 16th, and the expected due date of our first baby is june 18, 2003. how's that for whirlwind?
   
   
3. we hope to have 2 or possibly 3 children. it's been determined that i'm a hyper-organizer since i've already planned when we'll start trying to conceive #2. (hey, i'm 34 and soon to be 35... i want my body *back* by the time i'm 40!!)
   
   
4. we have two cats. neither hopie nor max is looking forward to the baby's arrival.
   
   
5. between me and my husband we have 3 motorcycles.
   
   
6. we also have 3 cars, but we're going to donate one to charity soon.
   
   
7. we live in a 1.5-bedroom condo and we plan to live there for at least another year.
   
   
8. i never wear makeup unless it's a special occasion. i think the last time i wore a "full face" was at my wedding. oh, and i did wear mascara at our baby shower.
   
   
9. i miss living in san francisco, but i don't miss parking in san francisco.
   
   
10. a messy house bothers me but a dirty bathtub doesn't.
