Yes, We are Still Alive!

Of course I would wait over a month for a new post, and of course I am going to blame it on being pregnant! Well, today I am 12 weeks and 4 days, almost done with my first trimester. Yay!  The time goes by so slow when you are going week by week, but thinking back to when we first found out we were pregnant seems like an eternity ago.  It is definitely a relief knowing I am almost one third of the way done with my pregnancy.  So, how am I feeling?  Much better now, but weeks eight through ten were pretty brutal.  I have know idea why they call it "morning" sickness.  It is more like a 24 hour "constant" sickness.  Now the nausea doesn't begin until about six at night, usually after I eat dinner.  My life savers have been "Preggie Pops" (the sour flavors) to help with my queasiness.  Sometimes I think they work, and other times I feel like it is all in my head! I can't complain too much, because I know I don't have it nearly as bad as some brave ladies out there!

I want to take a minute and make a shout out to my wonderful husband, Alex.  He truly has been absolutely amazing throughout my pregnancy.  Helping out more around the house, trying to keep our dog, Lucky, off of me, and getting me anything I may need are just a few things I am very thankful for.  Oh, and he recently just booked me an afternoon at the spa (while he goes and plays golf, of course)! So, thank you, Alex, I love you more than anything! You are going to be such a great daddy!

Here are a couple of pictures:  The first is me at the end of my second month and the last is a sonogram of the baby at 10.5 weeks.  Enjoy!
