My hair is now as short as it's been since I met my husband. I had time this afternoon and decided that if I was going to get my hair cut to something even more manageable and low-maintenance, I should do so before Peanut arrives, not after. It's now just a bit past my chin and has layers. We'll see what it does tomorrow morning after my shower, but Downwood has been assuring me every time I ask (5 or 6 times by now) that it is, in fact, very cute.
Other than that, I had a very lazy day today. I made blueberry pancakes, read my book, played Katamari, cooked a pretty good dinner, and utterly failed to do laundry. I still miss my family very much - especially after I got done writing the toast that someone will read tomorrow night for my sister and her new husband - but I'm coping.
And then I get a phone call from my father. He said that as soon as Downwood and I are up for visitors after Peanut, that he'll be here 9-10 hours after I call. I get the impression that he's anxious to meet his first grandbaby. :-) I knew my in-laws and my folks (mom and stepdad) were totally excited, but I didn't realize that Dad was so on board with it.
(For those who hadn't heard, my mom and dad got divorced when I was 4 and my sister was 2. There was an annulment involved and a whole host of issues resulted from it. When I refer to "my parents", I'm generally talking about my mom and stepdad, since he's been around since I was 5. He's possibly the best thing that could have happened to our family and I kind of hope that Peanut turns out to be a boy so I can name my son after him.)
