New Name

I think I have settled on a nickname for baby- Baby Love Bug, or simply Love Bug. I wanted something cute and fun to name baby for the time being. I'm not crazy about some of the typical baby nicknames.

I slowed down on posting mainly because I allowed people to put doubt/fear into my mind about the pregnancy so I was starting to distance myself from everything. I've decided I don't want that. If others want to be skeptical about the pregnancy fine, but I'm not going to do that. This is my baby, and I'm going to enjoy this pregnancy as much as I can- regardless of how things go.

I had my first bout of morning sickness on Sunday the 21st. It was lovely- during church even. I felt fine afterwards, I even went to the gym that afternoon. Since then I have had a few other episodes. Today was my first multiple bathroom run. At work, at church- thankfully that was it. I've just been so queasy all day.

I've got nothing really to update on- just me puking my guts from time to time. It is reassuring to assume baby is doing good. I can't wait to see Baby Love Bug!! One more week!!! One more week!!! Giddy Giddy!!!

Happy Anniversary

Humph- It is hard to post when there really isn't anything to say. I don't want this to turn into something that just sits and is neglected so for now you might see a bunch of pointless posts, but a post is a post. Haha.

I have my first OB appointment scheduled but it is not for an eternity- or at least that is how it seems. I go in on October 9th. We should be able to see a healthy heartbeat at that time. I'd rather go in a little "late" than have an appointment to early and not see anything- that would just be scary. I am so eager to see this little bean. Right now I'm still fairly "unattached" but I think seeing him/her will make me feel so much better. I've contemplated getting some more HPT so I can make sure the line is still there and much darker just for a little bit of reassurance but I've remained strong--for now. All I can do is put my faith in God.
Grow Baby Grow.


So far I haven't had any morning sickness. Honestly- I really don't "feel" pregnant. Which they say is common for how early in my pregnancy I am. By late afternoon I am ready to curl up for a nap but Morgan makes sure I am up on my toes, busy little-thang that she is!


I had my first session at LA Fitness this week. Hopefully this will be a great way for me to get some exercise but not be exposed to all of the nasty stuff in the air that makes me sick. I'm not about to spend a week in the hospital again with pneumonia. Keith showed me around and basically exposed me to all of the equipment- so hopefully next time I can get in and find some form of routine!


Today is Chad and my 4 yr wedding anniversary. I remember our wedding so clearly I can't believe its been 4 years. When Chad got up this morning to get in the shower I sneaked downstairs and made french toast and scrambled some eggs- He was quite surprised! He then told me we have reservations for tomorrow night- of course he won't tell me where, that lil stinker! It is such a great feeling to know that I get to spend the rest of my life with my best friend. I love you so much Chad!!

We have a foundation guy coming soon so I should probably get ready for his arrival!

We love you baby.
