The Peanut

(Update: The Peanut has made his appearance!) 

The Peanut is the affectionate name The Sailor and I have given to the little one we're expecting this summer. You can read more about my reaction to the news here. 

Since we're not finding out whether I'm having a boy or girl until he or she decides to make an appearance, calling the wiggle worm in my belly 'The Peanut' seemed to stick from the start. 

Even my friends have gotten in on the nickname. I have always been a fan of snail mail, and this Papyrus card made it's way to my mailbox a few weeks ago. It's on my fridge and I can't help but smile every time I see it.  

{Please note that I may not be blogging much in the weeks after The Peanut makes an appearance! I will do my best to post something to let everyone know I'm busy trying to figure out this new mom thing. However, if you see a giant absence of regular blog posts in the next few weeks, safely assume that I'm somewhat busy. Either that or really, really tired. Quite possibly a little of both...}
