A little update about what's going on with me and the fam: Lanie has taken a test at her school to see if she is gifted. In other words, she's a genius and hopefully this test will prove that she needs to be given harder work this year and next year! Baby is kicking my butt. BIG TIME. I have only thrown up 4 times yet. Every time in in the morning, RIGHT after I brush my teeth. I think I could chunk throughout the day if I wanted to, because I am still so nauseous all the time. I am getting used to it though. I have steadily lost weight, but I have only lost 10 pounds total. I am smaller now then I was when I got pregnant with Lanie in high school. I know I will get huge eventually soo losing a few pounds for now is fine with me. Baby is growing and the belly is growing, so that's all the assurance I need to know things are fine.
I did have a scare this week. I have been hurting really bad on my right side, but only if I sit in class for long periods of time, or when I drive in the car for a while. I feel like there is so much pressure in my side, but its not appendecitis, and nothing else is wrong, so I just wait it out. I went to the doc a week early just to make sure everything was okay and they couldn't find the heartbeat....but they finally did! She said "if we don't find the heart beat don't worry because you do have a tilted uterus.." I then told her NO, that I would freak out if she didn't find it and I wasn't leaving until she did. haha. I got my way.
I also started seeing spots about 2 weeks ago. I guess it's bad for you to drink a gallon of OJ a day like I was doing. For those who don't know, OJ is PURE SUGAR. So I pretty much brought on a slight case of gestational diabetes because I don't eat much, I just drink my calories. Needless to say, I have not had OJ since that Friday. The spots were gone by Saturday. This baby is a little boy, I just know it. Everything is so different from Lanie. but then again, I was 17 and could bounce back easily.
I have a week and a few days left of school! I cant not wait! Tonight is the Nashville parade, but it looks like we aren't going because Lanie woke up this morning with a cough and congestion. I don't want to make her worse since it will be in the 30's tonight!
Colby is absolutely wonderful! He has tried to help me so much and I am probably not as nice or grateful as I should be because he tries so hard to deal with my nausea and moodiness fromt he sickness.
We put up our tree the other night and I love it this year!! We got a new tree for $40 at OTP, my favorite store ever! Well, besides World Market. Halo and Bella love the tree too, I find pieces of it all over the place where they bite it off.
We are taking christmas pics this weekend at Opryland Hotel, I can't wait because I love that place! Colby and I are actually staying there on night after christmas and eating dinner. We need some time together! Lanie will be with her Dad.
I just can't wait for this semester to be over! If I haven't said that enough. I guess I better get back to cleaning, studying, and then go get my tags!
I see Christmas cookies, christmas movie, dinner and putting out christmas lights tonight and watching the parade on TV. I will be posting more now that school is almost over. We find out what the baby is after the new year since I went to the doc a week early, they want to wait til after christmas and the new year, which is fine with me.
