Other than my expanding waistline, the past couple weeks have been pretty uneventful as far as the pregnancy goes. I guess that's a good thing. Our next ultrasound is in two weeks and I'm anxious to see what this little person looks like. The last time we saw it it was just a white blob on the screen so I'm sure it will be exciting. The question everyone has been asking is whether or not we want to know the sex. The answer is... yes, maybe, I don't know?? Todd has wanted to know from the start and I wanted to wait and be surprised. But now my curiosity is getting the best of me, so we'll see. Maybe the little bugger won't cooperate and the doctor won't be able to determine the sex?
On a not-so-happy note we found out this week that Simon has lung cancer. We could tell he was continuing to lose weight even though we've been treating him for a thyroid disorder for the past two months. He stopped eating late last week and his behavior has changed dramatically. The vet ran some tests and x-rays on Monday afternoon and we got the results yesterday morning. It breaks my heart to see him decline so rapidly and to not do anything about it. At this point all we can do is monitor his quality of life and try to bring him whatever comfort we can. Poor little guy.
