Santa Baby
Thank you all for the sweet comments about the current pregnancy. It’s been rather easy so far and I haven’t had any trouble with morning sickness. That is one nice difference from the last time, even though my sickness the first time was rather manageable.
I’m now approximately 12 weeks and due on June 21. My parents will be gone on a coincidental, but rather poorly timed, trip to Israel until the 20th. We’ll see how that works out.
It’s been disgusting outside today. Which is annoying, because I had a lot of errands to run. And I was really hoping to be out and about in 37º weather and pouring rain. I’m nothing if not adventuresome.
On the bright side, Little Button and I went to visit Santa at the mall yesterday. She was absolutely fascinated at first sight. She gets the Santa thing and knows he brings presents on Christmas. I haven’t gotten much out of her on what she wants Santa to bring her this year, except something blue or possibly green, and maybe a doll.
She was really excited about Santa until she found herself in his lap, and then she started getting a bit nervous and calling for Mama. But Santa, who obviously has a few years experience, immediately distracted her with some giant jingle bells and we even got her to flash her brilliant smile … which the photographer didn’t capture. At least she doesn’t look like she’s being forced to eat out of the litter box.

You would think that for $13 a picture, they could manage to hire a photographer with some skill - like knowing how to center a camera. Button nearly got cropped out of her own picture. I had to trim off several inches from the other side of the picture to make it look somewhat balanced. But eh, what can you do.

Dear Amy,
Your Little Button continues to grow in beauty! It’s almost unbelievable.
I’m sure she’s growing just as well in grace and compassion and skill.
Also- congratulations, again!!
