No, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth

For the few people who actually follow this blog, I'm back!

I've been busy, doing life type stuff, and I just realized its been close to 4 months since I've posted!!! Insane.

Firstly, I found out December 30th that I'm pregnant again. Our anniversary is December 31, so that was a nice little surprise. I'm not saying I'm unhappy about being pregnant, because thats very much not the case, but its taken me a couple of weeks to get excited about it. We both have been like "if it happens it happens, if it doesn't it doesn't-whatever". We've been planning a trip to Disney world with a lot of friends and family for the end of September of this year, and I'm due at the beginning of September. So we're still trying to figure out what we're going to do. I'm having to pay for all of my health care ala carte so things are VERY expensive. The good thing is that we'll get a tax credit for the multiple thousands of dollars that we've got to put out, but still!

I've been suffering with morning/afternoon/evening sickness for a while now, and I'm losing weight again (like I did with my first pregnancy). I'm hoping to get over this pretty soon, because its really horrible. I don't feel like eating, but when I get hungry I get sick, and no foods really sound good. Blah! Smells are getting to me really really bad, so my sweet husband has had to prepare all the meat we cook. Just the thought of meat's smell is sickening, much less the actual odor. But last Tuesday we got to see the little bean with a little flickering beating heart and got 2 pictures to take home. It was adorable because baby V was with us at the ultrasound visit, and she said "thats a cute baby in the water!". I didn't think she was old enough to actually get it, much less put together that the baby was in a bag of waters!

Well that's all for today!

I've been wondering how you are. Whoever made up the term "morning sickness" had no idea did they? It is amazing how different pregnancies are, mine were anyway. I had horrible sickness with Colton and like you, the smell of food really got me. Even coffee which normally I love, I couldn't bear to smell. With Ava though, food didn't bother me perfumes bothered me.

It is so sweet that V got to see the baby and knew what was going on.

Keep us posted.

Yucky pregnancy ills. I threw up every day for 5 months! I have this yummy portobello mushroom soup recipe that I still haven't been able to stomach since I threw it up in my fourth month. Sigh.

Anyway, heads up! I really hope you get to go to Disney. What is more fun than the idea of walking/resting off your pregnancy in DIsneyworld! I just did our taxes and we're getting a nice ammount (plus the new tax rebate will help) so I'm booking our rooms today.

So excited for you. Can't wait to know what you're having.
