either i'm perfectly normal, or very weird. I was reading info. on a website about being 17 weeks pregnant, and i read this paragraph on how we dream differently when we're pregnant:
"You're likely to be caring for baby animals. During the second trimester, many pregnant women dream about cuddly, baby-like animals, such as puppies, chicks, and kittens. Friendly creatures in your dreams are generally thought to signify that you're tuned in to your instincts. Menacing animals, on the other hand, may represent ambivalence about the strange new creature entering your life."
interesting. except JUST LAST NIGHT i had a dream that i was fighting this huge animal that was a cross between a snake and a dove. an human-sized dove with huge snake-arms.
i think this means i have NO idea what i'm getting myself into... :) although today, brian was getting annoyed because we were running errands for the practice all over town and i wouldn't "stay on task" because i was oooohing and aaaahing over every person under the age of 10, and made "boooopy-wooopy-woooopy" noises at a puppy in a car window. maybe my instincts are right on. this child will be like the snake-dove in my dream. a holy terror, yet the love of my life. i'm so excited and terrified. :) i guess that's normal, right? ........right, guys? ....guys?

You are sooooo funny. You are going to be great as a mom.You must be having a boy.... Yes I love this big crazy family also.
Love,
Dad
That's perfectly normal! I used to have terrible thoughts creep into my mind about horrible things that might happen to Kristie when she was a baby (the first birth is the biggest shock to you... after that it's a piece of cake.) Wendie, who had a baby, too, told me she was having the same thing happen with her. Then I realized it was because you love them so much that you freak out about all the possible things that could happen to them--- so you can protect them from anything, you know. You'll be a fantastic mom, don't you worry. I can't wait! That's pretty creative, though, a snake-dove. :)
dear ryan, snake arms are arms made out of snakes. that is weird to me, though, that neither snakes OR birds have arms, but this one sure did... :)
That's so funny. It's funny how pregnancy changes your whole world! Hopefully your adorable baby won't be born with snake-arms.
