FINALLY! Finally we are far enough along we can share our happy news! Truth be told, this little bun growing in my oven has been a huge reason for my lack of posts. It's true what they say, no two pregnancies are alike and this time around I have definitely learned the true meaning of morning sickness. More like 24/7 sickness. It's been a rough first trimester. One which has left me full of nausea, empty stomachs, dry heaving and major mom guilt. I went weeks without feeling good enough to warrant leaving the house. I did a lot of couch surfing with Brody probably wondering what the heck, and my poor husband got stuck with all kitchen duties and a wife with a permanent yoga pants and over sized shirt uniform. Heightened sense of smell: check. Lack of appetite: check. Extreme exhaustion: check. The bright side to it all, besides of course, the gift of life incubating inside of me, is that I am starting to feel better! I haven't got an energy boost yet, but I can handle some cooking smells. I feel good enough to start working out and being active, which I surprisingly was itching to do. And Brody has a mom back who will get down and rough house with him and go on walks (weather permitting) and leave the house. I think he forgot there were people outside of his dad and I.
We are so extremely happy to be expanding our family and giving Brody a sibling, and being able to share our happiness is icing on the cake!
