We need a kid!
Due to lack of options, Peter started teaching Alice to play the piano. She was able to play one note, two times. She has had one additional lesson…
On a personal note…
Phew! Week 18 finally found me feeling better. I have no nausea to report, and, I’m having trouble staying in bed for even 9 hours. Quite a change. In the earlier weeks, I had started growing tired of hearing, “Oh, next week will be great! Week 10 you’ll feel better…. Week 12, week 14….” I realized after about week 14, people had stopped saying that. But, here it is, week 18, and I’m finally feeling, as I described it to Peter, like a person again. Yeah!
I felt the baby at about 5 am last Thursday, Valentine’s Day. That was my first day of week 18. I felt a little thump against my swelling abdomen. I didn’t know quite what it was, but, I knew it didn’t come from me. I described it as very “third party.” It was a really strange sensation, and left no doubt there is definitely something/someone else now residing inside my body. Hmmm….
