good stuff

we received a couple of items of good news today!

dr. moritz called with the results of my NT scan (and it's about *bleepin'* time.) the results placed the baby at a 1:1800 risk for down syndrome and other trisomies. the good doctor said, "can't ask for any better than that!" which is great to hear, but also makes me feel old....at 34, i am practically a pregnancy dinosaur, just one digit and revolution around the sun from the dreaded "high risk" category, so we'll take our compliments where we can get 'em.

the other fantastic news is that our landlord, ruben, plans to renovate our apartment this summer! w00t! we really love wolfeinelli headquarters, but were afraid that its current setup (combined livingroom and bedroom with NO DOOR) was simply not conducive to sleep training an infant. ruben's idea is to put our NEW bedroom in the back or our apartment where our kitchen is currently, and then combine our NEW kitchen with our NEW living room and build a brand spankin' NEW bathroom. we're talking a gut renovation, so we will need to sublet during that time and work out some type of storage situation for all of our stuff. totally worth it, though, as we really do have a great space and we love our neighborhood!

such a relief, knowing that these things are gradually falling into place. i am so relieved, in fact, that i will not complain about another day from hell with lil' miss nasty.
