We are having a...

Today we found out the gender of our baby. My appointment wasn’t until 3:15, so it was a long morning of waiting. Jeremy has said all along that this baby is a boy. His family is made up of mostly boys, and he keeps telling me it’s just genetics. I on the other hand, had convinced myself this baby was a girl. My reasoning for that is because the Bible says God won’t give you more than you can handle, and I’m not sure I can handle a little boy. They tend to wrestle, throw things, jump off of things, and get hurt a lot more than little girls. Anyway, 3:15 arrives and we go back for my ultrasound. Now I’m thinking that I’m not going to be able to tell what anything is on the ultra sound that it’s just going to look like little black and white blobs on the screen. Technology is amazing. I can see my tiny little baby on the screen. I can see its head, arms, legs, and can even count five little fingers on each hand. Everything is perfect. Amazing! After watching the ultra sound I have my suspensions as to what this baby is. Well, the lady asks if we want to know the sex of the baby. YES, please! It’s a BOY!

Merry Christmas

I am finally beginning to feel better and, I think I might just live through this pregnancy after all. I’m starting to get over this illness, I’m wearing my contacts again, and I believe my morning sickness has gone away. Thank you Jesus! My sweet husband put up and decorated the Christmas tree for me and bought all of our Christmas gifts. We spent Christmas Eve Lunch at my Grandmother’s house, Christmas Eve with Jeremy’s family, and Christmas Day at my parents.

My Mother

I would just like to take a second to stop and thank the Lord for giving me such a wonderful Mother. She has taken such good care of me these 3 weeks that I’ve been so sick I couldn’t even get out of the bed. I truly don’t know what I would do without her. She is a blessing and a role model and I am so very proud to have her as my Mother.

Sick As A Dog

I have never been so sick in my entire life. What started out as a little sinus infections, turned into 3 weeks of pure torture. Let me do the math for you SINUS/EAR INFECTION w/cough + MORNING SICKNESS w/sensitive gag reflex = THROWING UP MANY TIMES A DAY. Both of my ears are so stopped up that I can’t even hear my phone ring when it’s right next to me on the bed. I feel like I’m going to die.
