We're going to have a baby! We found out on April Fool's Day, Justin just kept saying, your joking is this some test you got of the internet to tease me? I didn't believe it either until Justin and I were in the Doctor's office and we saw our little baby on the ultrasound screen. And I took 4 (yes) pregnancy tests! I was so nervous, the Doctor say's it was a strong heartbeat and looked great. I know there is a long way to go but it eased my mind to hear the heartbeat and see the baby moving it's little arms and legs. Justin and I are really happy, this is all new for him it's fun to watch him go through it all. I kinda feel out of practice too...it's been a while for me!
The Doctor says I am about 12 weeks now, so we are just starting out on this long journey. The baby is due in November. I just hope and pray that I am not in the Hospital on thanksgiving!! Hospital food will not cut it...sorry!
The boys are really excited! Griffen want's a sister and Cooper want's a brother. Griffen will always come up to me and put his hand on my tummy (yes, I am already showing-CRAZY!) and he'll smile and rub it sweetly. When we told Griffen we said, "What's something you have wanted for a really long time?" He didn't say much so Justin went on to say, "mom's going to have a baby! Your going to have a brother or sister!" He thought about it for a moment and said, "I really just wanted a pet!" As if to say, you guys went overboard...really, I would have been fine with a pet! You crazy people! We laughed so hard, that boy kills me!
I wasn't sick a day with Cooper and Griffen, I felt wonderful and energized. Not the case this time...I think because I am 6 years older this go-a-round. I have been nauseous and totally narcoleptic with this one. Seriously, I want to sleep all day! I am so emotional that all I can do is laugh at myself! I woke myself up last night crying...I am a wreck! I never had food aversions with the other two, food was so much better. This time food's I can't even think about are salad, ranch dressing, roast, diced ham, pizza, macaroni and cheese, saltine crackers, steak, and scrambled eggs (I just threw up a little in my mouth just typing them) And that's just a start! Now I drive Justin crazy when we go out to dinner because I have to decide what I am willing to eat, knowing that it could very likely make me never want it again. I am still avoiding my all-time favorite Costa Vita's sweet pork salad because I know it will make me sick. Now, we can't have that!
No-matter how sick or tired I am, I am so happy and enjoying it. I just want a healthy baby and that is really all that matters!
