I'm posting twice today. It must be important, right?
It is. David created a band website! Yeah, I know I just told you guys to go check out his blog, but now there's the website. And it's cooler.
http://www.davidyeagerband.com
Check it out. You can look at photos, download songs, read the band bios, read David's blog - all kinds of stuff. Yes, the blog is fun, but this is the real deal.
Enjoy.

Baby Update
Today was supposed to start with cold, freezing rain. Right now the sun is out and it's about 36 degrees - which feels really mild for Chicago. The forecast is still calling for thunderstorms and cold rain, changing to snow overnight, but I don't want to believe it.
Anyway.
For those of you who may be curious, yes, the baby is moving, and yes, I can feel her. All the time. She moves when the alarm goes off in the morning and I roll over. She moves around 11:30, and then, depending on what I eat, wiggles around after lunch for a while. And I feel her at night. The other night we were reading aloud in bed, and I could feel her moving when David spoke.
Here are some of my other observations about the 22nd week of pregnancy:
1. My maternity shirts from Old Navy all shrank and none cover my belly completely. But none of my big baggy non-pregnancy shirts are big enough to house Baby Girl. And I don't have time (or money) to go shopping for a few more tops.
2. I have these "grow with preggo" maternity khakis I bought. You can let the waist out as you grow. I undid another button today.
3. Every time I get out of the car, I feel like I have just done 50 stomach crunches.
4. Some days, I can only wear my brown Sketchers around. My feet aren't comfortable in anything else.
5. Indigestion hits in the morning. It's an indifferent enemy. It can come after a glass of milk. (Although I suspect my indigestion today is due to the spaghetti sauce I ate last night...)
6. I have to remember to breathe. Breathing is hard.
7. Tums are my new favorite candy. (See #5)
8. I think often of this cute blond pregnant lady that used to work out on the treadmill next to me when David and I lived in the apartment last year. (Even at the time, I only did the elliptical.) Now I wonder, "She was running. How did she do it?" All I can manage is a walk.
9. I'm pretty sure I roll over every hour, on the hour, when I sleep at night. Otherwise, parts of me ache.
10. 19 pounds and counting.
Anyway.

Indulgence
I want NetFlix.
David and I have a nice TV, but no cable. It was an easy way to cut some costs when we moved into the house. Unfortunately, we also get almost no television stations. On a good day, I can choose from ABC (which is blurry at best), WBN, Fox, or the WB. Oh boy.
I watch a lot of Simpsons and American Idol. And SuperNanny. And in really dire moments, America's Next Top Model. I know we could up our Internet connection and I could watch TV online, but it's not as comfortable as sitting on the couch. And I'm guessing TiVo is waaaay out of our price range.
Last night after our small group, I hung around and watched a new episode of LOST with the crowd. Now, I haven't watched LOST since season two... so, obviously, I really had no idea what was going on. BUT NOW I NEED TO KNOW.
So I think I'm going to convince David it's time to get NetFlix. A good package, too. Wonder how I'll have to bribe him to get him to agree? (Kidding... kidding... kind of.)
