Books


i just love books. i get so excited when i get new ones. the most recent one that i am excited about is one the the ups man just delivered today. yes that's the book. THE BELLY BOOK
i'm a little late on the journeling being that i'm at 12 weeks right now and almost finished my first trimester but i updated as i could and could remember.
the other books that i got, i got from the library on sunday. i love the library. maybe i should work there. anyways i got the 2nd book in the "east of the sun" series that i was reading by linda lee chaikin called "yesterday's promise" and i've started it and really like it. the other one that i got is "bridge to terabithia" i've seen the previews for the movie and really want to see it but i decided that i wanted to read the book first. i was hoping that my hubby and i could read it together at night before bed and then go and see the movie. i'll let you know how they both are. excited!

Tomorrow's Treasure


i've just finished this book and really love it. my best friend told me about an older series that she wrote about pirates which greatly intrigued me. however, when i went to the library i happened to pick up the last one in that series by accident. about halfway into the first chapter i realized that i was missing something and checked and there is was i had the 3rd in the series. when returning to the library i found this series "East of the Sun Trilogy". this one is the first one in the series and i just love it. it's about diamonds and gold, the rich and poor, love and hate, friendship, family and faith. i've really enjoyed reading it and can't wait to get my hands on the second one in the series called "Yesterday's Promise"

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.
