day one

allegra was not feeling well. she stayed home from work-she never stays home from work due to illness. she had been EXHAUSTED and unmotivated for the last 3-4 days.
last week, sam was kicked out of mps rec club. allegra cried......CRIED....ALLEGRA! when we were in the parking lot, i asked what the hell was wrong with her, she never cries. she was embarassed and perplexed and made an off the cuff, "maybe i am pregnant" comment. she was indeedy pregnant, but for reasons not to devulged here, we thought that was all but an impossible reality.
reality shocker...EPT says allegra is pregnant!!!!


we are stunned, shocked, happy, overwhelmed, excited and nervous. we both want a baby. we both want allegra to sail through without a lot of discomfort. she has been slammed with discomfort, and it is only the beginning.


questions:


who do we tell now? when do we tell everybody? when do we tell our parents? when do we tell nolan? what will we do about sam?


do i REALLY have to clean those disgusting filthy torrid litterboxes? is a child worth that much suffering?


allegra is off to get bloodwork done. i am off to pick up nolan from his dreaded 3 night camp. i need to have a pregnancy book to read and reference often. allegra needs to have her docs and friends with children guide her.


day one. please let this blog continue for 9 months!
