Two Big Pieces of News

Well, most of you know by now, but we have two things to announce:
1) we got a cat yesterday! She is currently unnamed - well, she came with the name "safari", but since she only had it for 6 weeks or so and it's kind of dumb, we'll be changing it. She's about 4, and black with tortiseshell markings. Fairly small. So far she seems to be adjusting pretty well - a little skittish getting used to the noises of the house, but she's already making Freddy crack up laughing when she rubs up against his legs. He likes walking up to her and saying "HI" really loud. So far he's been really gentle, but her tail is very tempting and we're going to have to work on that. Photos to come tomorrow!
2) I probably should have put this news first, but since you have mostly all heard it, it's not as newsworthy, maybe. ;)

We're pregnant! About 10 weeks along, due December 7 (right in between my dad and Bill's dad's birthdays on the 3rd and 10th). December seems like a REALLY long way away, but that's probably a good thing. I'm already debating whether to pull out the maternity clothes instead of the regular summer clothes since I already seem to be pooching out! We're thrilled that Freddy will have a little brother or sister, and to be expanding the Geier/Gowski families.
