Monday miscellany
* We're enjoying our MLKing day off. Since I haven't been fully back yet, I guess it's not off, but it's my Last Day of Christmas Break, so I've been enjoying it, and I've been enjoying having Chris home all day. It's chilly outside so we're feeling cozy inside.
* I had a doctor's appt this morning. Short and simple. I just met with the nurse prac. We heard the heartbeat again. What can they tell about the baby anyway with such brief appts? I never have any questions. Is that okay? I just don't. I read the book so I know "what to expect." And everything seems fine to me. Anyway, at least I'm in and outta there pretty fast. We'll probably get to find out if it's a boy or girl in 6 weeks.
* Saturday night we went up to Baton Rouge to hang out with some of my fellow grad students and their significant others. There were 8 of us, and we met at Erica's house and made fondue. It was so fun! I've never done fondue before, but Sam gave me a fondue pot for Christmas, and Erica got one, too. Her pot is a chocolate one (but worked well for cheese, too), and mine is a meat one. She made a super yummy cheese/peppers/artichoke heart dip, and I brought beef and chicken to sizzle in the hot oil with some yummy sauces. It was a lot of fun, because it took a lot of time, and we were able to relax and eat and chat. Erica cleaned out the cheese pot and made a chocolate one to round things off. So yummy! I'm definitely a fan of fondue.
* We've been having a spate of spam lately. Thanks to the Management for their great help in getting it cleaned up. If you've had trouble commenting, sorry, but that's likely what was standing between you and your aired opinion.

My OB appointments were also short, but I liked them that way. And when we no longer were having ultrasounds (I think we had a total of 5) D didn't even come with me to the appointments. But, I did learn to always ask what to expect at the next appointment. The day I went in to have the sugar test I thought I was only having the test done. I didn't realize I was also having a real doctor's visit and it was at that visit that I had an ultrasound without D. He wasn't too happy about that. So now I always ask what to expect next time.
And knowing is half the battle.
