((Accepted by my new class...what a great feeling!))
11/1/85- I really never though that after being here for only two months I would become the president of the junior class! I never even really thought anyone liked me. It really was a nice surprise!
Halloween was kind of fun. We got to decorate the house and give candy to the little kids dressed in costumes from Walmart. There must have been 75 kids at my doorstep from 5:30-7:30. Some of them I knew, others I didn't, but I had fun being on 'the other side of the door' for the first time!
This kid is really growing now! I imagine I've gained 5 lbs in the last week or so. Kyle laughs at me and says I'm beautiful. I don't feel very beautiful but if he insists, I will go along with it! I thought at first that maternity clothes were the ugiest things I had ever seen, but now they make a lot of sense. I hate trying to squeeze into my old tight clothes now. I got a few shirts from one of Kyle's cousin's wives, but no pants. I had to buy a pair of jeans from Walmart, and they are what I wear most of the time. I'm learning how to sew, so I'll be able to make some of my own clothes.
11/8/85- Well, my class ring finally came in. I guess it looks ok. Kyle was really glad I got a 'traditional' class ring. He doesn't like the other styles.
Adam is going to be seven on Sunday. I bought him a "He-Man" character whose eyes really bug out. It's his favorite one now, but I wonder if it still will be on Sunday? He is growing up SO fast!! It seems like only yesterday Mother was pregnant and I was looking forward to a new sister or brother. I was so excited when he finally came!! I wonder if our baby will be as excited if and when it has a baby brother or sister. I'm still not sure when we'll have anothe one. I think I need to let this one grow up a little before it has anyone to share the spotlight with. I also want it to be old enough not to be jealous of a new baby, but to enjoy it like I did Adam. That is not to say we'll wait almost 10 years like my parents did, though.
These new feelings I am having are difficulty to understand sometimes. Is it the baby moving around or is it just gas? It sounds funny, but I'lve had some gas (or something!) that felt like I was being knocked down! Actually, that's only when I eat chili.
I go to the doctor in 2 1/2 weeks. He said we'd be able to hear the heart beat (s?) by then. Since twins run in my family, there is a slight chance of there being more than one heart beat. I can't wait to hear it (or them!)!
