The First Trimester

So I've known about this "my life is going to change" for about two months now and I'm really not sure about it changing in nine months. My life has changed just in the last two months that I really don't see it being much different. My life has gone from hanging out all with friends and family all the time, eating whatever I've wanted to eat, staying up late and really not caring about the consequences because it was how my wife and I recharged our batteries. Now my life has become something that you might expect to find in a retirement community. My wife is now tried all the time, she has started to lose her mind (her words), and our dinner time has moved from 7 or 8 to 4 or 5. My wife is in bed by 7 and if she isn't she is quite possibly sick for the next day or so. I guess when I was told about having kids and seeing my friends getting pregnant I never thought about them joining an assisted living home but now in our present state I feel that it might be best for us. Try to find people that are going through some of the same stuff we are; in some of my psychology classes in college I was taught that you can find healing from that. I like old people and playing bingo, haven't played bunko yet but I'm willing to try new things, I mean my life is going to change right. However, there is light at the end of this tunnel and from what I understand it gets better.

My baby and wife are doing great. I'm learning everyday more and more about life and how God created us. This last week (14) we went in for some genetic testing (baby is developing normally) and got to see our baby on an ultrasound for almost an hour. The doctor got frustrated because it wouldn't stay still long enough to get the measurements she needed. It was a great time to see the young life developing inside my wife. At one time we were watching it on it's back resting and drinking away, the doctor zoomed in and took a look at the heart (way cool) and then the baby moved again. If the baby had some toys in there it would have been having a blast. It really is exploring and developing at such a fast rate it's exciting to get that chance to see the baby at each step of the way.
