The time has come to reveal the answer to the question. “Where oh, where has our Bookish Girl Gone?”

c – staring at a wall

12 weeks 4 days
Due: Feb 22, 2007

    Whew-hooo! This is all so exciting! But I am getting a little scared. One by one, I’m watching women around me get pregnant (well not watching them get pregnant but you know what I mean). Is there something in the water? Here’s hoping my Brita filters it out. :)
