A 30 year-old single mom's chronicle of pregnancy and (soon) life with a baby boy.

I was surpised to learn that the Watts family Easter celebration was also a shower for me and a birthday party for my Nana Phyllis (on the right in the photo). Actually, I did have a heads up on the birthday party part, but not the shower.

As you can see, my cousin Naomi's son Rowan was eager to identify all the goodies packed into the diaper cake my Aunt Debby (on the left) made for me. Indy also recieved a bathtub, loads of adorable little outfits, books, finger puppets and many of the odds and ends he'll need in the first year.

Thanks to everyone for the presents and the party. It was wonderful to have my cousins come in from Virginia, Lewisburg, Pittsburgh, and Connecticut!

Interesting visual image: my uterus is now approxiamtely the size of a soccer ball.

In other baby news, one of my coworker gave me an absolute ton of 0-3 month clothes (with some 3-6 thrown is as well). My brother says the baby now has more outfits than he does. Which is probably true.

According to the pampers website, Indy now looks like this and is about the length of a barbie doll. Somehow I don't imagine him with the purplish-pink aura surrounding him in utero.
