I know it’s been months since I’ve posted…it seems like once I had actually had some interesting things to write about I just couldn’t find the time!! I’m sure most of you know by now but in case you don’t, Dusty and I are expecting our baby girl April 22nd and we cannot find enough words to express how excited we are!!
I am 25 weeks along and feeling great :) However, I couldn’t say the same for the 1st trimester. I don’t know why they call it morning sickness when mine liked to hang around ALL.DAY.LONG. This was another reason for no meal plan postings…I couldn’t even stand to look at recipes online much less cook them. Thankfully my doctor prescribed me what I like to call the miracle pill…you may know it as Zofran. The 2nd trimester has been much MUCH more kind to me and besides the occasional bouts of indigestion, I have no complaints. I am absolutely in love with feeling our baby girl move around inside my tummy and sharing every moment with Dusty. My next appointment is on the 19th for another another ultrasound and glucose testing. Here are our first pictures of Sawyer Marguerite.
9 weeks
My mom, sister in law and nephew came to visit yesterday and help clean out the room that will be Sawyer’s nursery. The room was previously housing all sorts of random things from wedding scrapbook items to Dusty’s hunting gear….needless to say, it was time to clean out and organize. Mom, Melanie and I went to work while Dusty and Grayson hung out and poked in from time to time. After a lunch break and some play time at the park, we were finished! The room is cleaned out and ready for paint, furniture and carpet…I’m only tackling one project at a time people. We did get her closet started and somewhat organized. I can’t believe how many clothes she already has and we still have a huge tub full of clothes that are waiting to folded neatly in a dresser. See for yourself!
Hopefully we’ll get the room painted within the next couple weeks and then get new carpet and furniture next month. Hopefully I’ll keep up with the blogging better than I had been recently so you’ll all be able to see pictures. Now that the holiday season has past and things have slowed back down to a normal pace, I am hoping I will be back to blogging on a weekly basis. I hope everyone had an AMAZING Christmas and a great start to the new year! The holidays were extra special for us this year, not just because we had an extra blessing to be joyful for, but because Dusty was not working or on call for Christmas! This was the first time in 3 years that Dusty and I were able to be together for Christmas Eve and Christmas day. We were so blessed and thankful that his new job that he started in October gave him 4 days off for Christmas and 4 days off for New Years! Dusty and I loved soaking up every minute with our family and friends during the Christmas and New Year’s festivities. We found ourselves eagerly looking forward to next Christmas when we will have our 8 month old little girl here to share it with!
Now that I’ve updated you all…it’s time for me to get ready for the week! I hope everyone has a wonderful week!!
