The Baby from Texas: Weeks 0-10

I'm not a huge fan of those typical pregnancy blog posts where ladies answer questions like "what size is your baby"  and "is your wedding ring still fitting" and what not.  So, I'm doing my own take.  Here's what The Baby from Texas has been up to the first 10 weeks.

*  Undefeated at Lamb Shows.  Just for the record, The Baby from Texas has been to two sheep shows and our lambs have been named Grand Champion both times.  That would make the baby undefeated.  Let's hope that's a good omen for the future.

*  Potential Names.  On that note, potential names have been tossed around.  The Boy from Texas always thinks about how the name will sound if he is yelling at his star linebacker from the stands on a Friday night.  I always think about how the name will sound when it s being called as winning a class at a major sheep show.  We dream big around this joint.

*  Talking to Folks.  You've been at a lot of ag law presentations, all over Texas and even in Georgia!  I appreciate you not making me hurl during the middle of one of these little talks.

 *  Causing Vomiting in the Bushes.  Speaking of, I've been pretty sick.  Probably not shocking given the motion sickness issues I've always had.  The worst day was when we were leaving the house one morning to go to Home Depot and I got sick just as I was about to get into the car.  So I ran over to the rose bushes and let loose.  The Boy from Texas swears it was one of the funniest things he's ever seen.  I didn't have a similar feeling.

*  Hitting the Slopes.  Obviously this was before we knew a baby was in our midst, but The Baby from Texas had a lovely time skiing at Red River over Christmas Break!

* Growing Body Parts.  I've got to admit, I had no idea how much development happened with this baby in the last 10 weeks.  At the first sonogram, we could see everything!  Brain, ear, arms, legs, it was just amazing!  Grow baby grow (I mean, don't grow too much, a small, healthy Angus-type birth weight would be fine by me).
