11 Weeks

Today I am eleven weeks along. I told my boss about the baby and it could not have gone better. I had a nightmare last night that it went horribly, but it was very smooth. Tom is a great boss. He makes sure I know how much he values me as an employee. He perfectly balanced his congratulations with sadness, because I won't be coming back full time. He made it very clear that there is nothing more important in life than parenthood. It has been his greatest joy. He was very understanding of whatever I decide to do from here on out. I am relieved to have had that conversation.

I also told Sarah. It was hilarious. She did not catch on at all so when I finally told her "I am pregnant" she calmly said, "Oh you are." And then did a double take, and was excited. It was too funny. I also told a couple of my friends that are also expecting. It's really fun to tell people in person, I think. So we are making sure we tell all of our close friends and family before any online announcement. My next ultrasound is next week and I am SO excited!!
