Information Overload

Today, Sandy and I dropped by the library to pick up some pregnancy and childbearing books. We feel we got some pretty good titles and have lots of "homework" to do ahead of us. I wonder how all the people in the past got by without all these reference materials, but I suppose it's mostly common sense and there weren't so many drugs and supplements and other things.

This weekend is actually a long weekend, with Monday being Martin Luther King Jr. Day. So we'll be able to get some good rest and relaxation in along with the reading. This is also the conference championship weekend for NFL, so I'm sure I'll be watching some TV tomorrow.

We also went out for dim sum (Sandy's appetite hasn't really increased any and she didn't eat too much) and shopped at Safeway afterwards. At Safeway, I was reminded that Superbowl is coming up with all the softdrinks and chips being on sale.. Not sure what to do for Superbowl yet, was kind of tempted to throw a party, but I think it's a bit too much trouble, and it'd be awkward to "hide" the fact from all our friends, especially as host, since we're not quite ready to tell everyone just yet. So, hopefully, someone will be throwing a nice party and we'll (or maybe just me) drop by and watch the game, or I might end up just watching the game at home.

Sandy mentioned that she did feel a but queasy on Friday. Maybe she is not immune to morning sickness or similiar synptoms afterall. Fortunately, so far it's an isolated incident and it wasn't that bad (she's also wondering if it was just psychological). Anyways, for now, we're pretty much keeping to the same routine as before the pregnancy, other than slight change to the diet on Sandy's part. (cutting back on caffine, taking prenatal vitamin, and a few other thing).
