Has it really been six weeks??

Thanks to Kristen's new blog platform, I can say with certainty it's been 6 weeks, 6 days, 4 hours and 42 minutes since I posted last. Thanks, Kristen, for the inadvertent wake up call!

Things are going well. I started classes at VT a few weeks ago. I'm knee deep in agriculture - Ag Crops, Ag Economy, Soils, and a calculus class I'll probably end up not even needing. I've started out as a soils major, but my advisor (who's also my ag crops professor and an all around great guy) advised me that as a biology enthusiast I was better off in agroecology. He's probably right. I went to my first Agronomy Club meeting today - not sure what it's all about, but it seems like fun. I'm also trying to get a part-time paid temp position in the genomics lab here, helping to harvest their soybean crops. That'll look great on a resume!

They say you should always balance school with social activities to get a well-rounded college experience. Luckily for me, my husband must be the luckiest guy on the planet. Wanna know what he won with a $5 raffle ticket? How about season football tickets, 25 rows up on the 40 yard line, and a parking pass for the lot right next to the stadium! Yeah, it's gonna be a good season.

So I'm now 18 weeks pregnant, almost at the halfway point, and guess what? I'm already showing! That's not supposed to happen yet! Check it out:



Please ignore the polka-dot boxers, what can I say, they're comfy. And, even though you can't see it, I've gone from a 34A to a 34C...lord knows where I'll be when this is all said and done...I'm gonna need a serious shopping trip soon, my clothes don't fit anymore!

We're going home this weekend for a family reunion (on my side). Many of these people we haven't seen since the last reunion last summer, and I haven't seen any of them since I found out about the baby, not even my parents. This should be interesting.

Lots of love...free hugs everyone!
