Morning Sickness is upon me

well actually i can call it all day sickness.
i can be thankful that there is no vomiting with it but not to thankful for the sick stomach that i've had.
this process has been progressing this whole past week and getting worse and worse until all i feel like doing is sleeping till late or laying on the couch all day and not moving to much.
my hubby doesn't understand it all that much because, well he's never been through, or never will experience this feeling.
lucky him.
i am trying to be thankful that it just started this week and that i didn't have it the first 7 weeks of pregnancy and also hoping that it will only last another 4 weeks putting me into my 2nd trimester when people say that it usually gets better.

You, Me and a.....

it's funny how things work out.
actually God has a funny sense of humor, funny timing and a perfect plan.
my 2006 new years goals were posted here last january.
while i can't say i've completely stopped saying shut-up and complaining i've done better at it.
in october we found our very first house and became home owners in november.
we haven't yet moved in because of the repairs that we've been doing but that's coming in feb.
and after being a couple days late, taking one test but being to impatient to wait for the result, taking 2 more with a positive result and my first trip to the doctor tuesday we are officially letting the blog world know that we are pregnant.
i'm due september 4th and so excited for our first baby.

.....baby makes three.

How to be Lost

i just finished this book by: Amanda Eyre Ward and i really liked it. there isn't a whole lot that i can say about the book with out giving away to much of the plot and all but it's about love, loss, sisters, and family. there is a quote in the book that is a little sad and tells a little about the book, " When you are small, if you reach out, and nobody takes your hand, you stop reaching out, and reach inside, instead."

Good Day
