It won’t be long.  I’ve kept my secret from JS up until a few days ago when I mentioned my pregnancy in a prior post.   A few people knew but I had not written about it in my blog there at all.  There was too much hurt at JS, to much anger and hatred and ridiculous nonesense.   As much as I am sad to see it go, it’s refreshing to start new.   Now many will know.

I had not even announced the pregnancy to family until the second trimester and from a trail headed up to the top of Multnamah Falls at the Columbia River Gorge.  There’s more to it than that but announcements of such events should be bold and undoubting, yet chancy.   One should announce such an occurance standing high on a rock without regard to the conventional expectations. 

We are due April 9, 2008.  However, that date may change since we have another ultrasound today and I feel like a cow.   This is baby’s first bear (Thank you Kim) and rocker that was my dad’s chair when he was small.
