Measured by our 11-week ultrasound, today is the official beginning of the 2nd trimester (SJC is 14 weeks today). Unfortunately, we've yet to see the wicked surge of energy, although SJC's nausea seems to be subsiding somewhat. Sarah is a bit disappointed that it didn't turn off like a switch. However, she was feeling well enough tonight that we decided on a whim to go out to dinner, something she really hasn't enjoyed in months.
Speaking of which, today was something of a wake-up call for us regarding spur of the moment activities. We are constantly talking about how different our lives are now that SJC is pregnant --- something that I'm sure we'll laugh about next summer when our lives actually are really different. But today, when I was walking home from the subway, SJC came walking out and met me halfway. Then we walked home and decided out of nowhere to go out to dinner. And even though neither of those things is impossible with a baby, it certainly seems like they would be more difficult, which made us laugh uneasily and switch topics.
