And so It begins

Here it is, the commencement of allllllll the annoying posts you are going to ignore. And that’s ok. As blogging goes, I will use this as somewhat of a journal.

So it’s true, I’m pregnant. Due Aug 7, 2013. Aka….. in eternity

I’m so sick of being pregnant. Or maybe just sick of being sick all of the time, and the cause happens to be pregnancy. I can’t deny it, my mother and grandmother were both horribly ill through pregnancy so I kinda knew I had it coming. But a girl can dream!

I’m hoping that things get better in the next 3-5 weeks. If not, then at least in 35 weeks! Ha! I’ve been sleeping 14 hours a day. Eating every 1-2 hours. Wearing whatever seems comfortable. Basically I have become an infant. I bought 3 new sweat suits because the 5 sets I already owned were clearly not enough. It would be if I did laundry more than once every 10 days but again, I blame it on the pregnancy.

I have a feeling this is going to be a long road. I already miss being thin (I am already fat, thanks to my ginormous uterus, now the size of a grapefruit). I hate the long list of do’s and don’ts involved with pregnancy. And if you don’t follow them to a T, there are plenty of people around to let you know.

Ok ok enough with the downer talk. We are ecstatic :) we really are! We have waited for this for a while and it’s amazing to see how Heavenly Father really knows what’s best for us. It really seems like this timing will be perfect for our family and we couldn’t be happier. Trav is hoping for a boy. I am too honestly but a girl would be so fun as well! Whatever it is, this baby is already loved and wanted beyond comprehension.

Even Zuka knows that something is up. She has been my loyal companion through all of the sickness. She lays with me in bed and cries (literally) with I puke. She really is a sweet heart.

If I didn’t already know that Travis is Amazing, The One, and Destined to be The Father of my Children, I KNOW NOW! He has been nothing short of phenomenal through everything. He rubs my back. Tucks me in. Cleans the house. Makes me food. Goes and buys me food, if that’s what I want. He encouraged me to go part time at work (soooooo happy about this), he really is awesome and I am extremely thankful for everything he does for me.
