Jodi & Andrea present....DOUBLE!
Now that the cat's out of the bag in all areas of my life (family, friends, work...), I can even bring the news to my blog: WE'RE HAVING A BABY!!! =)
The little one has been lovingly nicknamed "Double" (long story but, no, we're not having twins) and hasn't caused his/her Mom too too much pain! Minor, really, and now that I'm officially in my second trimester I'm feeling pretty damn good actually. (Well, if you don't count my mega headache right now, but that's from my company Xmas party last night, not baby-related!)
The picture above is Double's second ultrasound -- he/she (yes, we want to find out the gender but it's still too early to tell) was in great form. Literal hand-clapping and general wiggling was involved...this one's not going to be much of a sleeper, I can tell already!
Andrea and I are thrilled and -- oddly enough -- feeling pretty ready (not like "bring it on NOW" ready, but well on our way!) and are so excited to be able to share this really cool, exciting, fun, momentous, incredible, mysterious, weird, life-changing period of our lives with you all!
Stay tuned for further updates!!

Rain. Again. How Novel.
Ya know, I am generally that romantic type of person who loves the rain - loves cozying up with dim lights and listening to the pitter-patter of the raindrops. But ya know what? 3 weeks straight? A little much!
Perugia, and half the world if the global weather reports are any indication, is *this* close to preparing its ark and organizing its animals in gender pairs. Enough already!!
The "ray of sunshine" in all of this is that we leave soon for JAMAICA. Yep, that's right, vacation away, in the sunshine and heat. My body will probably go into shock after all this rain. At least I'm hydrated for it!
Happy Holiday Season! Hope your umbrellas are festive and your rainboots hole-less. That's pretty much as good as I can get right now.
