Houston, We have a Wiener
There's me with my 20-week big belly. Yesterday we had an ultrasound and we found out that the baby lug has a wiener folks. It's a boy lug! You know what that means: little trucks and robots and boy toys and the chance that as an adolescent he'll be in a kick ass metal band which would make Mr. Lug oh so happy. So go forth and knit me blue things! Okay so you don't have to knit me anything but someone should be knitting 'cause I haven't touched my knitting in weeks!
I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving next week, as we have it at our house every year. I'm working on my menu now. Any kick ass favorites you want to recommend? I got a pineapple casserole recipe from our friend Heather last year and it's become everyone's favorite, so I'm open for suggestions.
And of course my birthday is coming up (11/26), but I don't plan on a big party because quite frankly I don't want to watch everyone else be able to drink while I can't! Selfish? Maybe, but it's my birthday so I think Mr. Lug and I will go to the movies and he will buy me whatever I want to eat, which at this point is everything! Current favorite food? Still pancakes, but craving fried chicken wings.

I just realized that my stupid browser pasted in this article I was reading about my dad's back problem as my website in my last comment.
Ooops.

I can't wait for your posts in four years about how he is obsessed with lego star wars vehicles and likes to pretend he is shooting everything that comes in his path....then at last I will know it is normal:)
congrats! You are so cute pregnant
