We had a new playgroup yesterday which went pretty well until it was over. Tears ensued. Limbs were flailed about. Demands to take Potato Heads home were made. It all went pretty well considering that was only maybe 15 mins worth of "the wild things" :)
And then I realized I had forgotten totally about my very LAST ultrasound and that hijacked pretty much the rest of the day. I have, over these months, gotten to know a lot about random caregivers and workers. Even friends and family members.. people like to share! I think it's a great opportunity to find similarities with myself and people I meet. I mean, I should probably at some point branch out from only knowing the same 5 friends from school (as great as they are) since they have stuff going on in their own lives OR move across the country and never ask how I'm doing. Uh anyway. It's a lot of pressure and I guess I'm now interested in new people because they're nice too, I guess! So far I've met some cute moms or currently pregnant first time moms who swap "is this NORMAL?" stories, ladies who are excited they spell their name like I do (I told you it was a big deal) or have the same birthday as my due date, etc facts. Yesterday that happened where the woman doing my test has her birthday on my due date so I asked.. how big of a celebration can you have 3 days before Christmas? She said she was a Twin and apparently they both liked it since it made Christmas a really BIG deal.. but they would have their birthday party in November sometime. I am not sure why I ask that question since my own mother was born a day before my due date (and only 35% of births happen on your actual date anyway) so it could be anytime, and not a big deal when we have parties. I have a few cousins even born earlier in the week and it works out great. I still like to ask though because the answer is always different. Twins! Makes the idea of a combo day extra ironic :) I suppose you would like doing things in combos lol.
See you can make a friend everyday! It's the holidays! Be friendly.
