The Secret is Out

By the time most of you are looking at this, you will have finally heard the news from me or Larry (probably me cuz it is hard to contain myself!) that Lil Lui is on the way. Majority vote so far is that I'm having a boy. The Chinese calendar agrees. Larry, who would love a little girl, is hopeful. I, on the other hand, will be happy either way. I'm thinking boy on this one though.

Due to the physical nature of my job, I will be divulging my secret at work tomorrow so since the first trimester is ALMOST over, I thought it was time to let you guys in to the past two months. I have no shame here...and I like to talk a lot so don't feel obligated to keep up with everything. I'm getting more scatterbrained and forgetful these days so it makes it hard to repeat myself/update people with the same stories all the time since I always forget who I told what and then I'm like an old person telling the same story over and over again. Not fun. Just trying to spare my loved ones of the agony of repeating myself and allow those who WANT to know all the details the opportunity to hear them without my annoyed voice from having repeated myself.

My belly is definitely getting larger, but not in a cute pregnant way. More in a "hmm, she's a bit chubby and totally muffin-toppin' in those pants!" I have ordered a Bella Band which supposedly allows me to wear my normal pants unbuttoned and this contraption will hold them up. I've rocked the rubber band around the button already, but then my zipper falls down and in a hurry to the bathroom, the rubber band snapped, which sucked. Hopefully this "miracle" that prevents me from having to invest in maternity pants just yet will work out. I'm not loving the bigger waist just yet, but I am certainly okay with the bigger bra. ;)

Anyways, friends and family, thanks for joining us! I hope you are all well. I am looking forward to sharing my stories with you! Sending big hugs from San Diego! Love you all! MUAHHHH!
