Posted: Wed Jun 23, 2004 3:31 pm <  Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar The front door wasn't much more than a frame at the time of the knocking, but luckily Eirnae was already there overseeing and offering advice for the construction of the study. During a quieter moment in all of the hub-bub she notices a woman standing off to the side in front of what exists of the front of the house. "A visitor?" she murmurs out loud before making her way towards her, dodging beams and various tools, not to mention workers. "Greetings!" she calls once she is relatively close, "Can I help you?"

Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2004 3:49 pm Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar Eirnae looks surprised, as she doesn't remember Lenore mentioning this girl. Then again, she isn't sure if Lenore has mentioned anyone to her other than her father and the friends Eirnae already knows from the Fae' HQ. "Your congratulations is much appreciated, dear lady," she replies with a warm smile, stepping out of the framework that would one day be a house to be closer to this mystery guest. "May I ask how you know of our joyous event? Has word spread that far without my knowledge?" (( Sorry for the pause, couldn't get back on yesterday. stare ))

Well, I had my first bought with morning sickness, but it was night, strange.
Eirnae was working on healing Mav at the HQ, and at the first sight of blood, I became ill.
No, before anyone asks, this is not a normal thing for me. I can sit and watch Nyoka eat rare, or raw, meat as though it were nothing. She has conditioned me in that respect. And, this is the first time I have become ill over blood.
So, blame it on the morning sickness.
It was wretched, and I hope I don't have to deal with it again. We shall see though. . . .

Posted: Mon Jun 28, 2004 12:52 pm  Wotcher Wotcher strolled up to the place, a tiny bag clutched in his grip. Setting the bag down right in front of the door, Wotcher rang the doorbell thrice before fleeing. That should get their attnetion. Note Inside Bag Dear Lenore and Eirnae, Congrats, and long time no see! As you may know, word travels fast in the Fa'e community, and once I heard Lenore was pregnant, I sought out a gift. Wouldn't do to leave my old friend forgotten, would it? I was flipping through Arakel's diary the other night, and I came upon the places where he called me "Silly Crab." (I also know, um, something else.) The memories still make me laugh, but thankfully he has gotten over that phase. Being a very simple minded person, I thought a crab toy might do the trick. This is just a regular crab plush, but it floats in water. Might be amusing during bath times, but at least you can remember Silly Crab from it. Good Luck, Wotcher  ((I drew it myself, so I know it looks a little...not right. XP; ))

I know I have not been keeping up with journal. I have been much too tired. Morning sickness is getting the best of me. I can't seem to sleep anymore. Everytime I finally do drift off, I only sleep an hour or two, and then I am awoken, and dashing to the bathroom.
After that, I can't get to sleep. This is horrible . . .
On the up side, though, Wotcher left a gift for the baby. It is a sweet gift, and a bit of a Fa'e inside joke as well. When Arakel was younger, he used to call Wotcher "Silly Crab."
Well, the gift was a crab plushie. It is absolutely darling! I am sure the baby will love it.
Also, construction on the new home is pretty much on schedule, which is wonderful.
And, Eirnae and I are to be married! It was rather sweet. We finally try to go out without drama, and we both had the same thing in mind. We popped the question almost at the exact moment. It was wonderful, easily one of the happiest memories in my mind.
Well, I am nodding off, I hope I can actually sleep through the night this time. . . .
heart Lenore Slytherin-Natenhar.

Posted: Sat Jul 03, 2004 10:55 am  Kamiki The morning sickness is starting to where off as the time goes by. You feel good - energetic - still with a healthy appetite - and you're definately starting to show. Your clinic visits are going exceptionally well, and you're able to see the baby on the sonogram and listen to its heartbeat. At your latest visit, Kamiki tells you she can tell you the sex if you're interested

Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2004 3:18 am Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar Jun 30, 2004 I'm floating on air, and I don't really want to come down...not for ONE second! I finally got up the nerve to propose to Lenore tonight, at a dinner that we had planned for a few days in advance. She picked the place, I picked the table, and we both picked outfits (quite by accident, as I thought I was the only one doing this) to try and please the other. She looks scrumptious in black, so it took all I had not to scoop her up and head upstairs right there and then. Hells, she looks lovely in damn near anything, but in that dress of hers... I think I'll move on, before I stop writing altogether and simply go and be with that wonderful woman here and now, else I'll never finish this, will I? Yes...rambling... Anyway, I wore a black silk dress and heels for perhaps the first time in my life. Yes, heels. I also bought a purse. A black leather one, with a long strap that I likely could hang myself with. Such a long strap and no space inside the bag for practically anything...a nightmare unto itself. If that isn't love, I really don't know what is. Did I mention that we proposed at near the same time? My ring was in the velvet box I shoved it into days prior, the same box I've been staring at for...oh...the last few minutes in wonderment. It's empty now, as I slid that ring right up my Lenore's finger once she showed me hers for me. Not until after she climbed into my lap and kissed me in front of all the patrons of the restraunt, of course. I love her for her little quirks like that, not giving a damn that the entire room is staring at us while we threaten to snap the cheaply made wooden chair with our combined weight. Now I'm sitting here at my desk, still the willing victim of that 'warm fuzzy feeling' throughout my body. Perhaps it is partially due to the white wine I managed to inhale before we left the restraunt, might I add without ordering a thing beyond that, and headed for home with certain activities in mind. Perhaps it is because of the many hours that we spent in our room once we got home... Thank the Lady that Lenore magically sound-proofed her room for that. I'll need to ask her about that for the house once it is in the right stage for such enchanting. Now for me to shut this diary of mine and head back to bed. I do doubt sleep will be emminent at first, however. I'll have to wear that dress more often... No heels though. ~ Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar

Thank the gods! I slept through the whole night! I can't believe it!
Though, my stomach still deemed it good to get sick the moment I awoke. So, another morning greeted by the toilet.
Am I mad? Did I really ask for this? I feel so . . .horrible and tired most of the time.
I guess blessings always come with trials? Nyoka has taught me that, over and over and over. . . .
But, at least I have more energy now. Maybe I should tie Eirnae to the bed tonight?
My, did I just write that? I suppose I did . . . well, now that it is out . . . I love spending time with her . . . more than she could probably ever know, and more than mere words can ever say. . . .
So I'll just stop now.
The house is, still, coming along. It should be done soon . . . I think. Or is that just my wishful thinking? I would move into it now, if I could. Of course, I shall have to go around . . . enchanting a few things . . . shouldn't be too difficult. And, it is absolutely nothing to complain about.
Something troubling, to me at least, is going on. I seem to be eating . . . . a lot. If there is food in front of me, it is gone within five minutes. . . .
And I am scared. I can see it now . . . I have the baby and then I am fat. Would Eirnae still want me?
But, that is just my vanity talking. . . . I'll just . . . cut back on the sweet stuff?
Fat chance. I think I better go eat . . . .

Mon Jul 05, 2004 3:53 am Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar July 1, 2004 What does a pregnant woman with twice the magical power of most minor demi-gods get to eat? Answer? Anything she wants. Including my own breakfast, it seems. I do believe that I'm going to need to go shopping again later, as Lenore is eyeing my kitchen's fruit baskets. I also need to put my rarer food stuffs into storage again, as I don't want her nibbling on my stock of elven breads till I can find a bakery that makes them like they do at home. I know, that'll be like looking for a dagger in a dragon's hoard, but I haven't given up hope yet. I do look forward to the new house being done, even with as slow as the progress is proving, for that kitchen will be twice the size of this one. Think of the things we can prepare in a kitchen such as that! I may still be learning the art myself, but to have room to refine the craft with our entire family... No, I think my favorite part will be all of us sitting down to dinner together, as one family, and talk. Right now my table doesn't have room for all of us, as the cottage is only so big and thus so is the furniture. Oh hells! I forgot that we still need to go shopping for a baby chair for the new kitchen table! Time for me to whisk Lenore away for some shopping. I'll ask Shina to come along, she can watch over Vinyn during the trip. That is if Lenore doesn't lure me into the bedroom again. Note to self, buy more silk rope. Lots and lots of silk rope. ~ Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar

I feel so horrible for Eirnae. We have to go grocery shopping every two days now, especially given the size of our family, and my enormous appetite.
I awoke just now (it is around 1 in the morning), with the strong craving for papayas.
Well, we don't have any here. And, what did I do? I woke poor Eirnae and asked her if she could go get some.
Yes, I could have went myself. In fact, I should have went myself, but I am so tired from my day of shopping with Neith.
We took Nyoka and Kia out to get prom dresses, and buy some baby clothes. Needless to say, Neith and I brought home enough clothes for the babies that we could probably turn them into blankets and give one to everyone in Russia.
But, Neith told me some good news. She is having twins! I can't believe it.
I do feel sorry for her. Not just because of the twins either, Kia moved out. I don't know what I would do if Nyoka just up and moved out.
And, here I am, a blibbering mess now. I hate these hormones! And all the mood swings that are starting to come with them.
I look in the mirror one moment, at my growing stomach, and I will feel happy, feeling like the most beautiful woman in the world. Then, the next moment, I will cry and crawl back into bed, feeling horribly ugly and wanting to just disappear.
Again, I feel so sorry for my love, and our daughters. I know I must be scaring them. . . .

Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2004 4:58 am Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar July 3, 2004 Ever been a night person, I mean an honest to Lady night person, and be engaged to a woman who sleeps during that time? I guessed this would become an issue eventually, but never for the reason that brought it into reality. I had already decided that because Lenore loves to have me near her as she sleeps, that I would have my trance between the hours of 1 am to 5 am. That way I could perform my welcome to my Lady's moon before coming into bed at 1 am, and be up in time to dance my farewell without any trouble. The first morning that I try this routine, my plans get run over. For papayas. Lenore is very lucky that I was only in the beginning stages of my trance, for if I were near the middle she would not have been able to get through to me without the Gaian World Band at her beck and call. I'd like to claim that I am a light-trancer, but that is hardly the case. I likely could trance straight through an assasination attempt, and not even realize I'm dead till I open my eyes in the next world. Hopefully in such a case my reflexes would take over and protect me, but I don't count on that. Makes me grateful that Lenore is a light sleeper. She'll fry the intruder while I blissfully trance away. So, back to the damn fruit. Yes, I just got settled and Lenore reaches over and shakes me back into a wakeful state, claiming that she wants papayas, and needed them as of yesterday. My first reaction was a heartfelt, "Where do I get papayas at one in the morning?" You can imagine the baleful glare I got in response. I don't think I've moved so fast in my life. Good thing that Shina was just going to bed herself, and asked me, "Mom, why are you running downstairs naked?", else I might have actually gone to the stables and saddled up Firi in nothing but my own skin. By the Lady, Lenore sent a shiver down my spine with that look! Of course when I finally got back into the bedroom to get dressed she was all hugs and kisses. Thrice damned mood swings... Where did I get the papayas? A nice little market stall near Barton, that was thankfully open during the early morning hours. First time I almost wanted to kiss a perfect stranger. Got the fruit home, washed it, went upstairs... Lenore didn't want them anymore, at least not right then. That rope came in handy. Anyway, after a hearty snack of quickly eaten fruit, Lenore got ready to go shopping with Neith for some clothes for the baby. Neith is pregnant as well, and very much in love with her chosen, Kochikens. I would have gone with them, but I had already made arrangements to go to the construction site for the house to make sure the recently expanded crew there wasn't making a total wreck of the project. When I got home I was greeted by a HUGE pile of baby clothes, and a very hyper Lenore. She declared that Neith is destined to have twins, all while devouring a slice of white chocolate silk cake. Fascinating to watch my love eat while fully enamored with what she is talking about, she does her best to not spit out a single crumb even as her lips are going several miles an hour. Amazing. I must admit that I'm worried about Lenore, mood swings or no. I caught her in front of the mirror today, looking down at her belly and beaming like an angel. Next thing I know she starts to cry and takes off in the direction of the bed. I stuck my head into the room fast enough to see her burrow under the covers like a mole into earth, sobbing her heart out. I went to her and crawled atop her, wrapping my arms around my bundled up woman, and tried to console her. I believe Shina can heal the bruise I got on my rump when she kicked me off and I landed hard onto the floor, but I don't think I'll ask...too embarassed by far. I think next time I'll give her some time to calm down before I swoop in, otherwise I won't be able to sit down at all, much less...nevermind that. ~ Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar

I am so excited! Another visit to the doctor today. And, we might be able to learn the sex of the baby.
Eirnae and I have never really spoken about learning the sex of the baby. But, I think I would like to know. I mean, if we are having another girl, then we will know that all those dolls we have been buying are going to come in handy.
If it is a boy, I feel sorry for him. I truly and honestly feel sorry for him. He will be in a house full of girls.
With an older sister (Nyoka) who wouldn't think twice about clawing the crap out of him. Yes, she is frightening. . . .
But, I can't wait, as I have said. Hopefully, we will discuss finding the sex of the baby. If we don't see eye to eye, there is always the option of one of us knowing, right?

Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2004 5:21 am Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar July 4, 2004 Well, here I am writing with a shaking hand that we are about to go in for yet another visit to the doctor...but THIS time we can learn the sex of our child. What amazing magic these people possess, to not only allow two females like Lenore and myself to have a child naturally, but to tell us the gender of our baby before it is born! Lenore is too nervous to tell me what she thinks about the possibility, but I suspect that she wants to know the sex of our child. I think she'll be surprised that I also wish to know, simply so we are better prepared for the baby's arrival. I don't think I'll mention anything till she brings it up, however, or the doctor perhaps. Consider it my small revenge for my bruised bottom. ~ Eirnae Slytherin-Natenhar
