Big News

Remember me? I know I've been a bad blogger lately. But - like I mentioned earlier - we've had lots of things going on and I've just been swamped. Well, now comes the day I can share with you all of the excitement that has been going on and one of the many things that has kept me busy the last few weeks...... Are you ready?


That's right! Our family is growing!!!

He/she is already the love of my life (even though 'it' is waking me up with sickness most mornings and leaving me exhausted by the end of each day).

We are so thrilled - words can't express! And from now on I hope to be documenting (more faithfully) the progress as our family becomes complete. Our little one is set to join us on February 11th, and we have much to do to prepare!

yay!!!

when i was prego w/ my 1st i was waaaay sick. it wasn't just morning sickness, but ALL-DAY sickness. Any little smell made me sick. Crackers and gingerale did not help. by the time I was in my 3rd pregnancy, i had come up with my own little tricks to help. I would eat a high-protien midnight snack, like cheese, cottage cheese, or yogurt. That seemed to not make me as sick in the morning. and I carried around sweetarts... i swear, i bought those in bulk. anyway, in the middle of the day, if i started feeling whoozy or light headed, i would suck one. i don't know what it is about tart/sweet/sour candy, but it helped. maybe it was only a placebo, but oh well.

i hope you start feeling better soon, and i can't wait to see pics when you get a little belly, and how cute you'll look! :)
