Baby John
Growing up
Getting Married
Now its our turn to start our family.
We will have a new baby joining our family November 17th.
We are very excited for this HUGE change in our lives!
So how have the past 11 weeks changed since I have been pregnant?
1- All my life I have been a morning person. Waking up at 7am with John on my days off was a normal possible thing I would do. I could never really sleep in unless I was sick. Well now I can easily sleep into 10am everyday I have off!
2- Nausea that comes and goes. I am not going to complain because my nauseousness is nothing compared to what many women go through. I am lucky enough to have not thrown up, and I am able to get up and go to work and get out of bed, but it is still quite a difference always feeling LIKE you are going to throw up.
3- CRAZY dreams- WOW. Before I was pregnant I could never remember my dreams(if I had them), not now. Each morning I wake up telling John about my crazy dream. Flying dreams, John in a musical, Pregnant in high school, monsters at work just to name a few!
4-Going pee all the time. And not only that but my ability to hold my pee is non existent. As soon as I get the urge I have to go THEN or else I am in trouble! And I would never wake up at night, and now I do for a nightly trip to the toilet.
5-I swear my stomach is growing, my rib cage is more round, and my stomach is bloated ALL the time. I can not suck in my belly, and I swear it is sticking out! But my clothes still fit so that is a good sign!
6- Food aversions and cravings. Every day at work I would make myself a nice salad, well not now. I swear my vegetable intake has decreased rapidly because I cannot eat salads like that. I can eat salads that other people make and at restaurants but not my own! Now onto cravings: I don't really know if I have any cravings yet, not a whole lot of things sound good, but whenever I see a pizza commercial on TV I want pizza so bad, so I think this might be a craving although I have not given in . . . .yet.
7- Fantasy's. Okay this might be a little too much information for you, but I must say my new crush, or obsession, is David Cook from American Idol! I guess this crush began a few weeks back when he was the focus of a dream. Now I spend a little time watching him online over and over. So needless to say, Tuesday and Wednesday nights I am staring at the TV.
8-An unstable emotional roller coaster! Angry, funny, hyper, sad, crying, happy, all in a matter of minutes! Sometimes I don't know what is going on, and I just have to excuse myself and baby until we get it together!
9- Menu planning and cooking plans. I love to make a menu, go shopping, meal plan, prep and cook dinners, but now nothing on my weekly menu sounds good. So I don't know what to make, we end up doing something that is not even on the list, or going and grabbing something!
10- PURE JOY and EXCITEMENT! That pretty much sums it up!

I craved anything and anything with HOT MELTED CHEESE on it. mcdonalds double cheeseburgers, mac n'cheese, pizza, etc. (great for the baby, I know!) and I had the same nausea - yucky & the worst at night (night sickness?)... it will get better!

hooray! isn't it crazy how the minute you get pregnant, your body just goes nuts?! It's so weird how much is affected...things you never even think of, like your dreaming. We are so excited for you.

Congrats you two!!!!
I'm starting to feel a lot of pressure over here! With almost ALL of my friends being pregnant. Nate and I better get things rolling.
Your baby is going to be darling! Congrats!
Congrats! You guys have so much to look forward to! The first ultra sound, finding out if it's a girl or boy, picking a name, decorating a nursery,feeling sick- but you're happy about it b/c it means you get to be a mom. So many great things!
I am in the phase where you can actually see my stomach moving when she kicks, its so crazy!
Hey Hey, I am sooooo excited for you two! I couldn't remember if I congratulated you yet cause I feel like every one of my girlfriends has a bun in the oven...what a lucky kid he/she will be. Im just going to put in my bet right now, Im thinkin it will be a boy. Maybe cause of Langdon and Heather and Wyatt and Jenny, but I say boy! You will be the cutest mom Sarah, can't wait!
Yea!
Huge congrats to you two!
Love that David Cook made the list!!!
Yea for AI!!
