Still not showing

I am 14 weeks and still not showing, hopefully that means that I won't get monstrously huge. Here are some pictures for proof. Bear in mind that I took them myself so they aren't from that far away. I am a little excited to have a belly though, Sean likes to say that the reason I'm not showing is because I'm faking being pregnant, haha. Like I could fake those things.

Baby Beat

We got to hear the baby's heartbeat at my appointment last week. It was cool. Sean's questions was if the baby is on speed or something because the heartbeat is so fast, the Dr. told him it is normal but he still thinks the baby is on something. Silly Sean. I just thought neato, until later that day I had a belated reaction where I got really excited when I realized that that means baby is actually there and doing well. I've been worried because I am crazy, so it was really reassuring. I can't wait until we can find out if it is a boy or a girl. I will let everyone know when we actually find out.

Work from home

I am asking for some advice on different types of jobs you can do from home or some sort of job where I will be able to take baby with me. If anyone knows of any that I will be able to do that would be great. I don't really want to work at the job I am at now because I will not be able to bring baby with me and they don't really let you be flexible with your schedule. I will be quitting this job in February when we go for Sean's internship, so I want to start working from home then. If you have any ideas of where I can get such a job that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!!

Very Exciting


So I thought I would wait a while to make this announcement, but I give up. I don't have a fun ultrasound picture to show yet, but I am pregnant!!!!!!!!! We are very excited, I am due April 18 and am 10 weeks along tomorrow. I already had to break the news at work so I figure I might as well spill the beans on my blog. I know some of my friends already know, but now it is official. I wish I had a cool picture to show you, but I look exactly the same and I don't have an ultrasound yet. Things are going great so far, I haven't been really sick, only once have I experienced true morning sickness. I don't think my baby likes tomato soup, or sweets for that matter, they make me so nauseous. I am trying to exercise, but for the last week and a half I have been really tired and my tail bone hurts when I run so I've been taking it easy. I just want to be healthy so that baby is healthy too. I guess I will have more news to talk about for the next few months.

No wonder I feel sick

I couldn't decide what to eat for lunch today while I was getting ready this morning, everything sounded gross as usual. So I just didn't bring anything, I thought well, I have some chips and a few other things at work so I should be fine. I was wrong, I became ravenously hungry at 12 and no one could bring me any food or go out to lunch with me and I was really craving a turkey sandwich from kneaders. So to fill my empty stomach and try to get rid of my craving I walked over to the pharmacy next door to my work and took a look at the candy section. I never ever eat candy, but I was hungry, so I bought fig newtons, mambas, reeses peanut butter cups, a few penny candies which were sour patch kids, and a cookie. I only ate the sour patch kids and the fig newtons and one of the reeses cups, but I feel soooooooooooooooooo sick. What was I thinking, I just wanted that freaking sandwich. It is like the days that I really want chocolate and we don't have any at home so I eat everything in sight trying to asuage the craving. Cravings are just messy business, the only way to make them go away is to give in to what you are craving, but if you have no way of getting it then you are in trouble. I should never have eaten that stuff, I don't really like any of it except the reeses and now I am paying the consequences. My tummy is overly full and makes me want to just go home and put on sweat pants and lie down to stretch out my stomach. Unfortuneately it is only 2:30 and I am stuck here at work until at least 5:00. Next time I have a craving I think I'm just going to have to call a cab or something to take me to get my food I want.

Fall is back again

Fall is back and you know how I know, because of the beginning of another football season and school year. I don't have to go to school, it is wonderful being done, but poor Sean is busy busy busy again with the joys of homework and long assignments. He is such a trooper, I'm so glad he works so hard at everything he does. We started off the BYU season with a game last week and they did great, except for in the third quarter. Today we spent a lot of time watching all the NFL games and checking Sean's scores on Fantasy football, fall has officially begun, even the weather is cooler. Now I am starting to worry about having another long cold winter, it is just not my favorite time of year. Goodbye summer and sunshine, hello changing leaves and pumpkins. I am really excited for Halloween this year though, I am hoping that since it is on a Friday we can go up to the Hartley's in a real neighborhood and see all the cute little trick-or-treaters, they are the best. Anyways that's what's going on now, I'll update you with pictures as soon as I have some.
