Week 30

Halloween night I dressed up (for the first time since 1997) as the pregnant Virgin Mary. Between the costume and the gentle proddings of Angela (and technical assistance of Lisa) I decided to go ahead and start a blog about Sean and my band, La Familia's first release, Young Simon (working title). I'm hoping Sean will get on here too and share his thoughts and updates.
To bring everyone up to speed, I dig pregnancy.
So a couple months ago we sold off one of the Yamaha FZR600's and purchased a Bajaj scooter. The riding position on the cycle had become really uncomfortable, but the scooter feels like sitting on a pony. It's great for getting back and forth to school and to go swim laps at the YMCA.
I credit swimming laps and lots of sleep with the easiness of my pregnancy so far, but I haven't hit the ninth month yet, so who knows?
Young Simon has been to two concerts so far. We went to see Beat Cops at a house party and there was a mariachi band at the Sonoma Valley Museum for the Dia de los Muertos exhibit. If moving around is any indication, Young Simon seems to really enjoy live music.
We're outfitting the baby's room-painted it green and inherited a beautiful crib handmade by an old co-worker, Paul Troutman, painted by Chris Duncan.
This whole business is pretty exciting.
