It Has Sunk In....I think.

Thursday 08-19-10

I think the past couple weeks of: running to the restroom every 30 minutes, snacking every hour, getting tired throughout the day, and feeling nauseous in the mornings have finally made me realize that I am really pregnant. I sit here this morning in complete awe and joy. I can't believe THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!!! :D
I must admit my "symptoms" have not been as bad as a lot of moms experience but I do get my spells of them throughout the day. But I would not trade one thing for this wonderful being inside of me.
I have been eating pretty good (except for the past couple days). :-/ I attended a class here on base and let me tell you what...there was no limit to the sweets I indulged while in that class. I wasn't even craving sweets and I still stuffed my face. I mean come on...I was given a PayDay candy bare AND cake within minutes. Who could turn those down??
Then after the class yesterday I was so wanting something NOT sweet and I was in a hurry to eat before work so I took a trip to McDonald's.
The fries didn't taste normal...it just wasn't that good. I know McDonald's chicken sandwich and fries are not "healthy" but this girl normally loves anything from the golden arches. Well, not yesterday. Lil' Jonesie did NOT let me forget how much I hated it either because on my jog to the gym yesterday afternoon I was burping the WHOLE way and it tasted like disgusting McD's. So, I guess I better stick with my fruits, veggies, edamame, beans, almonds, yogurt, and the mostly normal stuff that I have been feeding the Lil' one.

I also can't believe how much Morgan is getting excited over our Lil' one. He has told me a couple times recently that I "smell like a Mommy". haha I am not really sure how that is possible...but okay. :) He calls me mommy already and touches my belly. It is so sweet. I just love it. It is crazy the way our relationship has already gone to a completely new level and we haven't even had Lil' Jonesie yet. But I just love love love it. Sometimes we just look at each other and smile...without saying anything. It is awesome.
Okay...one more thing for today. We already got our FIRST baby gift!! Last week my boss....ehmm my awesome boss surprised me with a gift! I opened it at work and low and behold it was the most adorable set of towels and washcloths. Here is a pic:


As they say, "Over and Out!"
