ob appointment no. 2 and other baby news.

blah. i don't want to start anything because i have to leave in an hour to get to my second doctor's appointment. but an hour is a long time to do nothing. no one is updating their blogs. i'm bored with researching cars. the hotmail fighting has died down. and our friend who is gonna get us a mortgage for a condo (fingers crossed) is taking a long time responding. all my "do nothing" options are useless at the moment.

not that you, dear bloggy blog, were last choice or anything... yeah.

so i don't really know what to expect at this appointment. i only know i'll be weighed... dear god, please help me to have not gained more than four pounds. otherwise, i'm gaining too fast, and i just don't know if i can handle that. oh. and i also know we're supposed to have a $580 check for our first payment for this crazy expensive baby. and i also know that we don't have it. do you think they'll send us home? maybe they'll tell us, "screw you!" and send us to have the baby on the living room floor or something. or maybe they'll be understanding. which is what i'm hoping for, personally.

so yeah. that's all i know. no sonogram. no internal exam, that i know of, at least.

the last appointment was two hours, and this one is only supposed to be 30 minutes. thank heaven.

in other baby news, my friend and coworker jay and his lovely wife joanne welcomed jane ashlyn sparks into the world on thursday at 8:11 p.m. she weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces. you'll just have to trust me that she's beautiful because jay is super smart and made it so links to his flickr account and pictures pulled off of it don't work for some reason... already protecting that precious bundle. love it.
