Baby Tales #3: Week 8/9

I'm combining these two weeks because there isn't really a difference in what was happening

Overall Feeling: Sick and tired...well...most of the time.  I seem to be OK in the mornings and am able to drag myself out of bed to make it to work, but as soon as I get home, it's right to the couch...and sometimes the toilet!  I even took a few days off work during these weeks just so I could stay in bed...shhh don't tell my boss!  I think it started to set in this week that there really is something inside me and that feels really weird to me. I'm not sure how to explain it except that it's very weird! Don't you like my technical explanations??

Food Cravings/Aversions:  Still can't stomach meat or Mexican food.  And since my morning sickness is the worst at night, I haven't been cooking dinner for Mr. G.  I've been living on granola bars, cereal, crackers and pasta.  Plain, plain, plain!

Highlight(s) of the Week:  No major highlights or milestones, but a few more people have started to ask and I don't want to lie so I've told them.  It's just too darn exciting!  Mr. G's football team had their big fundraiser dinner at about week 9.  This is an adult only event and is usually a huge party...I obviously don't get to partake this year and of course people were going to ask.  We had decided before the party that we would tell people.  The news is starting to get out there!

I miss my morning coffee and the occasional beer or glass of wine.  I've taken to calling Mr. G "the caffeine Nazi" because he won't let me have ANYTHING!  I keep trying to show him all the research that says a little bit is perfectly OK, but he's not having it.  I guess this is a battle we'll have to ask the doctor about. 

Sorry no picture this week, but we're almost caught up!

Um, don't even talk about the caffeine Nazi! Tyler was an everything Nazi!! Tylenol- forget about it! Hansen's ALL NATURAL soda- nope! Yoplait yogurt- nada. He was crazy!! Hopefully it will lighten up a bit, but at least you know he wants the healthiest little bean possible! Make him quit all that too! :)
