Heading into the holidays

by Shannon

We've finally finished the last of our wedding receptions. That sound weird, but we officially had three of them: one here in Savannah after the wedding (August 22nd), one in Tennessee during grandpa Zaller's 90th birthday bash, and one in Omaha in mid October so that Michael's friends could be there.

He likes to make lots of jokes about the pregnancy too. His favorite:

"They say time flies after you get married. I had no idea. We've only been married 2 months, and she's already 6 months pregnant".

I had no idea I'd married a comedian. And I'm actually impressed that he keeps making me laugh.

However, my flying days are done til the baby gets here next year. It's just too uncomfortable. That being said, I went in for my gestational diabetes test today (where they make you drink this super sweet liquid, and check your blood an hour later) and I barfed at the 50 minute mark, which is not good, considering that might mean I have gestational diabetes. They're checking the bloodwork to be sure. But I felt terrible that the nurse had to clean up my vomit that got all over the bathroom...

Michael has been in rehearsals for Broadway on Bull, since they open next week. I'm sad that I can't be in it with him this year, but I'm sure there will be opportunity for me to work with him at some other point. He's been such a trooper, and he's really helped me a lot these last few months. I'm not sure what I expected, but I'm really happy to have him around.
