poppyseeds

It is just our luck that the day we finish uploading all of our wedding pictures to Facebook for everyone to see, I get this weird feeling that I need to go to Walgreens and buy a pregnancy test. Like, ok, wedding pictures done? Great. Time to be pregnant.

Even though I've been around for ridiculous amounts of pregnancies and births in my lifetime, once I saw that + on the pregnancy test, I kind of freaked out. What do I have to do? What brand of vitamins to do I get? How many DrPeppers can I REALLY drink? What if I get sick? I hate throwing up! Do I have to stop drinking White Russians with Tony at night? What if, what if, what if?  I mean seriously, I know the answers to all of those questions. So why did I freak out? No clue. But I did go to the store and buy caffeine free DP, prenatal vitamins, and lots of juice. And I'm trying to make Tony drink all the vodka really fast. 

But really, we are VERY excited about this baby! Tony asked how big the baby is right now and I said it was probably the size of a poppyseed. So that was it. The poor baby's name is Poppyseed around here. I even woke up this morning to a note on the fridge from my husband that says, "I love you Mama Jo and Baby Poppyseed!"  Cute, huh?

We will slowly think about real names for this baby. We've got a while to decide and it might take a while because of our last name. My favorite names just don't work... Lola Longenbaugh? See?  So "L" names are pretty much out, and names longer than 2 syllables are out for the most part. Any suggestions?

I might post on here again before the baby is born. We'll see...
