Our Week

Being silly in bed after a phone call with Grandpa who was in the hospital one night last week

Hanging out with Mama before the doctor confirmed that his ear infection never went away.  Looks like a second set of tubes are coming soon... :(

He tried on his new snowpants and boots!  I think he's obsessed!  He insisted on wearing his boots to daycare the next day too.

Not much reading going on, but he loves his sock monkey book!

8 Weeks & Ultrasound!


My Week:

Going through Tylenol like it's candy.

I've thrown up every day this week.

I've eaten about 5937 apple slices in the past 6 days.

Wishing I could be in bed all freaking day.

Wendy's chicken nuggets with honey mustard is awesome


On  good note, I got an ultrasound at my first appointment!  Everything is looking good and I cried a little when the ultrasound tech told me the baby was there with a heartbeat.



I told the doctor about my 24/7 crappy feeling and she told me I could take Unisom, B6 and Zofran to help.  I've been taking them for about 4 days now and I'm not seeing much difference, but I'm hoping maybe it will kick in soon.

I have to wear scarves every day at work to hide my baby bump.  It looks so small in this pic from early in the week, but I feel so much bigger!  I can't button any of my pants anymore and I started wearing the belly band to keep them up.



Overall, I'm just happy everything is good with the baby, but I could really use some relief health-wise.  I also just found out I have shingles, so that's an added headache to deal with during week 9 coming up.

Our Weekend

Another weekend of Mommy feeling sick, but Connor still had fun!  I went to a baby shower on Saturday and Daddy sent me this photo of Connor eating an apple.  Love it!

On Saturday afternoon, I wasn't feeling well, but I needed something to entertain Connor so I found the new winter craft sets I bought.  He actually really loved making them!  Maybe some artsy qualities are rubbing off now?

The snowman and penguin were his favorites!

On Sunday morning, the boys got haircuts and then I took Connor out to McDonalds to waste some time.  I don't think he was feeling very good because he didn't seem very interested in playing.  We ate apple slices together and then I tried to get him to play.  He went up into the play area once, but he wouldn't go back in again.  I asked him if he wanted to leave and he said he did.  :(  Poor guy...


We also hung around the house a lot and Connor watched some Mickey Mouse.  Guess who let him put his chair on the couch?  [Not me!]
