However, if an eight year old can tell a person is pregnant at nine weeks then I guess that person should know so she can go public earlier than usual – lest everyone wonder why she is so getting so “pudgy.” So for the next ten weeks (until she actually looks pregnant, not just fat) give a pudgy person a break, it’s not just a case of Midwest depression (although there may be some of that going on too) or a newfound love affair with snacking while watching nighttime television (also possibly a byproduct of the aforementioned Midwest depression) that’s causing it. There is a baby in there behind that Jell-O like mass of flesh. I heard its heartbeat today. So, let’s just agree to disregard the fact that the said child is the size of a small Oregon Strawberry.
While we’re on the subject of progeny – wish Daniel luck! Here’s his last chance for a retraction and apology from the editor of the annual Christmas newsletter for previous statements/slander about his Y-Chromosome deficiency. We’ll look forward to finding out in early November!

YAAAAHHHHHOOOOO!!! Congrats you guys!!! Here's hoping for that boy, but how fun would 5 beautiful girls be??!!!
It's also great to FINALLY see some updates :)
Oh, and I had a dream the other night that you guys made a suprise visit to our house and needed a place to stay for the night...it was AWESOME! So, let's work on making that dream come true, OK!!!
Congrats! Can't wait for Baby Henry to come play with Baby Zeus! (Or Henrietta...just in case!)
Hey, if you're showing at 9 weeks maybe it's twins! Henry AND Henrietta! Score!!!
P.S. Don says that the two names you've forbidden us to use are funny names for a girl. Thought you ought to know! If you have a boy, though, there's a chance for us to have a girl someday, so I'm hoping for a boy for you!
YAY KARI! We will be crossing our fingers for a boy. (But you do make very beautiful little girls...)
You are so hilarious, by the way. Love that you have blogged again.
We're pulling for you Dan.

I was sorry to read about your mom. Hope everything is OK.

So, Darin says that it may not be a Y-chromosome deficiency that's the problem. He thinks it could be a hostile enviroment that could be the problem.... :)
