Tomorrow I will be 14 weeks pregnant. It is amazing how quickly time is passing. Unfortunately it stills seems like an eternity before Ike and I will find out the baby's sex. Everyone keeps asking me if I would rather have a boy or a girl. I always think it is weird when people ask me this question. I always tell them that I would rather not have my heart leaning one way or another. I do not want to be disappointed in any way when we find out exactly what we are having. There are a lot of couples who are unable to have a baby and I should be more than grateful that I am pregnant and am able to have a child-whether it be a boy or a girl.

Having said all of that-I should know for sure what I am having in about 6 weeks. At that point Ike and I can start deciding on a name and I can buy clothes. It will be very exciting. I am also hoping that my mom will have already moved down here by then. It will be great having her here to help me and share with me in this experience.

Now for the big news. Ike has a meeting set with the head guy at his company next Tuesday to discuss Ike taking over management of a store. This is a very big deal and something that we have both been hoping for. Unfortunately it comes at a strange time. If Ike does get offered a store it means that we will probably have to move away from Cleveland. As I have already mentioned-my parents are planning to move down here by the first of next month. If Ike takes this position it will mean that I will have to once again move away from them. If Ike becomes a manager of a store it will hopefully help us out a lot financially and will also give me the ability to quit my present job and get a job that is hopefully not as demanding-or to even stay at home with the baby for awhile. This is what we have both been wanting for a long time, but it is also something that makes me feel very nervous. I like where I am living, I am comfortable here and the thought of me having to pack up everything and start all over again is very stressful. I am actually trying not to think a lot about it until after the meeting happens and we know more information. Basically, the next part of our lives are based on what is said at that meeting.....
