Well, I guess its time we announce that we are pregnant!  I am due in August.  The unverse/God/whatever you want to call it has a sense of humor.  We tried for years and basically gave up.  Then, I find out just before our business opens, that we are pregnant.  At one brief point, we considered taking the fertility route.  I admire couples who are able to endure that, because I have always felt that I was/am not strong enough to do it.  Last year, I asked Donna Jean, our resident psychic if she thought I needed fertility and she has told me that I did not.  She added, "Once you leav your job, you will become pregnant.  The environment is not good for you."  It didn't occur to me until recently that I left my job in October and I became pregnant in November--three weeks later.  So, when people ask me "is Donna good"?  I have to say, "she is scary good".

Anyway, I decided to "come clean" now beceause for a while, it just looked like I was gaining weight, but its to the point now, where I am starting to look pregnant.  I am still at the cafe everyday, for most of the day, but my staff is starting to boss me around, telling me to sit down.  I am also having a tough time reaching the counter (where we place completed drinks) and the top of the espresso machine for cups.  I was short to begin with, and now there's a belly in the way. 

Not that I am not thrilled about our baby, I don't want to bore anyone by going too much into my pregnancy because the blog is mainly about our coffee house.
