I also have to say, since this is my thread and I can do what I want :p, that I had the most kick-a** baby shower last night! It was soooo much fun. Now my sister and friend are still in town, and we're organizing all the clothes and materials that came in. I'm getting really excited for the baby!

Also, first Lamaze class was this week. It actually made me calmer about the birth. I'm actually somewhat looking forward to it, too. I could think "why did I look forward to THIS?!?" but. . . looking forward is better than dreading! smile

On the WH front, his parents are coming into town this week. They want to meet with him and me. . . I guess to try to get us back together. She asked if I was willing, and I just sent an email saying no. I said I knew he wasn't ready to see me, and I wasn't ready to see him. But I did give my "message" for him if he was interested. It was 7 numbered points like "i love him and always will because of what we had, but we are not friends right now," "i'm willing to do counseling, but that may not last much longer," and then details about baby stuff like I don't want him at the birth but I do want him to see the baby after the birth. Oh and that he could contact me if he wanted input in her name, but I was prepared to name on my own.

I struggled a bit with whether his parents should know my message. I like to keep discussion about him with them to a minimum. But since his parents may be a little too optimistic about our prospects of reunion, I wanted to help them see my reality.

I think (and hope) my message is honest, direct, and real.

We'll see what happens in the next few weeks. The pot is being stirred with their arrival.

I'll keep y'all updated; ciao!
