Did I say that I told everyone at work on Friday, 8/16?

And we found out it's a girl on Thursday, 8/15?

Heather Leigh Hudson

I'll have to scan the pics and post them.

I should write more. I wanted to. Did I mention that I had my first real kicks on July 24. I think I did. Need to check the page.

We have an appointment this Thursday. I still haven't told anyone at work, and it's really hard at this point and I'm scared. Hopefully on Thursday we'll learn the baby's gender and then I'll tell Dave (my boss) on Friday, and it will be fun as I'll know the gender.

We are still having issues with names... I still love Hadden James, John doesn't. Mom thinks it's okay if it's spelled Haden. Like it makes a difference. I guess I could go with that... Haden James. It doesn't matter, as the baby will be called Hurricane no matter what gender it is. Sure would be easier if it were a girl though... Heather Leigh. Done. Over with.

Some days I am so lovey and ready to have this baby and be a mommy. Other days I want this "brat" out of me. It's only been two weeks of kicking, but it's already annoying to me. Funny... and some women think that's the best part of being pregnant.

I have to say... I somehow thought I would be one of these people who felt better pregnant. But I don't. I don't feel worse though (for the most part), so that's good. But I don't feel any "different" in a bigger way. Just the same old me. Maybe that will change as I get bigger.

Oh - the other day, I found out the due date for Ana here at work. For some reason, I thought that she was due in October, but actually, her due date is about a week after mine. However, she's planning on having a C-section so will probably go earlier than me. But... everyone here has know that she's pregnant for more than a month now. But then again, she's thin, so she can't hide it. Me? I just look like I'm gaining weight.

Oh - we recently found out that Stephanie Kauffman, our next door neighbor (Stephanie and Kevin) is pregnant. She's due in February. She was 12 weeks when I found out - roughly 10 weeks behind me. That is so cool. She also plans on staying at home after the baby, and this is their first as well. I was so excited the day I found out. Last Tuesday, I think it was, maybe Wednesday.... either way, it was the same day that I was made a sub-team lead at work... very stressful. So, I was very excited to hear their news.

I suppose that is all for now. I'll have to remember to write more often.
