we were obviously thrilled to get such a clear picture of our little baby in there, giving us either a thumbs up or a #1 signal. or, as others have postulated, singing into an air mike.
top 5 things we know about the baby so far:
1) baby LOVES potatoes in all forms
2) baby likes for momma to get lots of sleep
3) baby has no desire to try boca burgers
4) baby loves shakespeare. i mean, he/she's already been in a shakespeare production!
5) baby will either love roller coasters, or have an awkward sense of balance, since momma definitely went on six flags' new "goliath" at a mere 3 weeks pregnant
top 5 things we've learned about being pregnant:
1) no matter how much or how vehemently you object, people will call you "prego" and "preggers". why this is, we have yet to find out. i mean, really, people. prego is a spaghetti sauce.
2) like baby, momma LOVES potatoes in all forms
3) being pregnant means no cooking raw meat or changing cat litter :(
4) even before you start showing, people will try to carry things for you, offer you their seat and do all kinds of little favors, just because they know you're pregnant. it's awful. really. ;)
5) and finally, pregancy makes you an airhead. for example, in the past few days, here are some words that have completely escaped me mid-conversation: reassure, distraught, the spanish word for scissors (tijeras)....also, i just had a student in my 1002 spanish class make up an in-class composition. rather than give her the right topic from the 1002 class, i mistakenly gave her the topic from the 2001 class. needless to say, she was surprised by the difficulty of the question, though very forgiving when she realized what had happened.
on a last note, thanks to everyone for all their congratulations. it's comforting to know that people aren't frightened at the thought of more little grem-mason children. and fear not, there will be plenty more to come!
blogs that is...we'll decide about more children once we get the first one out.

loves all forms of potatoes...it's an irishman for sure.
speaking of getting preferential treatment, are you one of the pregos that get a bed @ dad's halloween party?
and it can hardly be called a spaghetti sauce, compared to ragu.
i hope i am!
and, yes, i agree about the sauce. it's bad enough to be called spaghetti sauce, but to be called bad spaghetti sauce just adds insult to injury.
scoupe sais he's not going to dad's. DO SOMETHING!! guilt him into it, or something. i don't care what you do. maybe we'll have to work together, but we MUST get him there!!
hmmm...you could try to get him fired! or...i could pretend i'm going into early labor. no, that's not really believable yet...
how fun!! grem-mason chillens! OH, and I HATE processed Cheese Food!! yuck-o! so lets say that the cheese slice is from a deli, kay?!
That's amazing!
Her middle name will be Ellen--a family name for Darren's family. And since you had such a keen intuition that I was pregnant even before I knew...I have to say I´m feeling persuaded :)
we'll have hard evidence in 3 1/2 weeks!
