What a Day....
I woke up Saturday night very nauseous and with my head spinning. I knew I shouldn't have eaten all those crab ragoons. I was very determined not to throw up since it is still a scary thing to me. Finally at about 8:30am Sunday morning I did it. That's all I'm going to say about that. All day yesterday I was a mess, nauseous, dizzy, didn't want to even get up to go to the bathroom. As the night went on I was feeling better and this morning I woke up without nauseousness. Now I feel it creeping back. Does anyone have suggestions (besides eating crackers) to beat this nauseous feeling? *sigh.. I am so ready for this part of the pregnancy to be over!

7 Things You didn't know about me:
1. I practice conversations I may never have in the bathroom. At times I practice my reactions to life situations in the mirror, like if someone knocked on my door and told me I won a million dollars.
2. I love reading books outside, in the cold air with a blanket wrapped around me in my chair. I am usually freezing but it makes the reading experience even better for me.
3. I could eat fried pickles from Western Sky all day long!
4. I dream almost every night and I have the strangest dreams on a consistent basis compared to anyone else I know. Lately I have had a lot of dreams about killing bad guys. I am a warrior in these dreams, carrying bazookas, throwing knives and all sorts of stuff. But the people I have to kill are evil people and I am protecting myself or someone. There is never any blood.
5. I have to get a little dose of the metroplex once in a while. Going to stores that we do not have in San Angelo and restaurants as well. It makes me feel fancy.
6. My feet are the gage for everything. For instance if I feel gross like I need to be cleaner, I wash my feet and I feel like a new woman. If I am cold, I cover my feet and I feel better. If I am hot at night, I stick a foot out of the covers and I cool off.
7. I love being pregnant and benefits that come with it.

Baby Appointment
Ok, Ok, I am sorry it has taken me so long to post this. I am still getting used to this blogging world :)
Our baby appointment went really well. I was definitely tired after all the poking and stuff but it was worth it. This was the longest Dr. appointment in my life! I filled out all the paper work, handed it into the nurse and waited...
It was good having L there to get my mind off all they were going to do. He was really silly singing songs and joking with me. Then after an hour of sitting on "the chair" with L by my side, the doctor came in. He was a very nice, professional Dr. L and I both liked him a lot. He was in and out in no time and said, "you are definitely pregnant" and then set us up with a sonogram time.
We ate lunch at Pizza Hut and as we were there it was just more and more real to me what was taking place. I think I teared up about 2 times at lunch and my husband just put his arm around me and told me he was so happy about our life we have.
Headed back to the hospital for the sonogram. Now this was the neat part. The nurse showed us this little baby inside of me. As we looked at the screen you could see a little flashing light like a lightning bug going on and off. THAT was the heartbeat. It's amazing. I was just mesmerized while I know L was looking for two babies. So I asked the nurse, "Can you only see one in there?" She said "Well, that's all I can see for now but it is very early and i am glad we have such a good picture of this". Either way we were happy. We were just in la la land for the day. What a wonderful day it was, despite the uncomfortable parts. God is so good. We have been blessed and there is so much that is to come!

Tomorrow
Well, tomorrow is the day we find out the due date, our first baby appointment! I'm not sure what all they are going to do but I do know that they have to stick me with a needle and draw some blood. Ugghhh..I'm not looking forward to that or some other routine things they do.
But I am looking forward to knowing when we will have the baby (or babies) and if there is more that one in there (which is Lennon's hope). Pray that all goes well and that I don't faint when I'm taking the blood test. I will be sure to post how it all goes :)

Surprise Package
We just moved in our new house two weeks ago. (I will post pics of the progress later being that I don't know where I packed my camera) We have this little mail box attached to one of the posts on the front porch. I keep forgetting to check the mail there but yesterday I could see a white envelope sticking out and got excited to check it. I saw the word baby on it and immediately opened the package. There was the cutest creamy, yellow baby onesie! It had a little alligator and bird on it saying "See you later alligator" The gift was from seph. It hit me that I am going to be holding a baby that will fit into this soft little cloth. I got all teary eyed (which I am doing a lot lately) and showed L the little present. You couldn't wipe the smile off my face for nothing. Funny what baby clothes can do to you. Thanks seph! That gift meant so much to me! (It also inspired me to buy a soft blanket to go with it)
