I am pretty much all settled in, or as much as one could be expected to when moving a whole household across the country. I have my old room back in my folks house (weird!) but am not getting tramatic HS flashbacks, so that is a really good thing. And look how happy Leia is to be settled! ->

My parents and I had a really cool conversation on our daily walk last week. My dad asked what my biggest fears were about moving back home. I hadn't realized until that moment that I didn't really have any. I figured that whatever came up would be stuff we could work through. My mom isn't having any kind of alergic reaction to the cats which is a REAL relief and so we are just one big happy family! Plus I think it has been nice for my mom to have someone around at night since my dad travels quite a bit. I know I LOVE kickin' her butt at cards on a daily basis...

It has been such a treat to be around my family and be pregnant :) They are such goof-balls! My official nickname is Prego. Mom was calling me over and over and I didn't hear. She finally yells up the stairs "HEY PREGO! You comin' or not?". And it seems to have stuck! Allison tried out nickname after nickname for the baby. She said "We can't just go around calling it 'the fetus"'. After rejecting a fairly long list, I think we have settled on the L.B., short for Lil' Biscuit, short for a bun in the oven. Mom and I were in the car the other night and she raced over a speed bump. Without skipping a beat (and without even looking at me I might add) she looks to my belly and says "oops, sorry LB". She cracks me up!

It is a pretty amazing process - still hard to believe I am really having a baby. I feel absolutely fabulous - the little sickness I experienced was over after the second month. I am also not nearly as tired as I was in the first trimester. Can you believe I am four months today? Just unreal! Anyway, we are both doing fine and I appreciate all your concerns and well wishes. :)
