First post

Well, if you followed my link, you have found out what is going on in our household. Yes, Reyna is going to be a big sister. Surprised?

I found out a few weeks ago and have already had my first doctor appt. I am due August 22nd. Right smack dab in the middle of the summer months. Oh, well. I am anxious to see how different it will be from Reyna. When we brought her home, it was in the negative digits due to the windchill.

As for how I have been feeling. Not. So. Hot. :)

I have already had my fair dose of morning sickness and pray each morning as I munch on my saltines, it will be over soon. Christmas day consisted of throwing up and not eating a delicious dinner that my mom prepared. New Years? What a wash. I was in bed before 9.

Today, I feel pretty good. It's hard to force myself to eat since NOTHING sounds good. But, if I don't eat, I feel sick. It's definitely a catch 22.

We couldn't be more thrilled for the upcoming addition to our family. I am looking forward to updating this blog quite often throughout this pregnancy.

So, are you shocked?
