It feels good to feel good!

Hooray for feeling good! Yesterday I was able to come home from work, make dinner, clean up dinner, do some productive homework, and entertain guests without any of it being an ordeal! I was bouncing around the house saying "I feel good, I feel good!" It totally boosted my self confidence to serve dinner to my husband and get through an evening without being curled up and immobile at any point. It gives me such hope for the rest of this pregnancy. Not to say the nausea didn't come back this morning but I'm still on a high from feeling good for an evening! I'm able to believe that one day feeling good will be the norm again.

8 Weeks Down...31 To Go!

Jeff and I are very excited about the coming addition to our family. May 17th seems a long way to go! Bean, as we affectionately refer to our baby, is 5/8 of an inch long and about the size of a kidney bean this week. I 'm afraid to say it out loud but it seems that morning sickness is a thing of the past. I've had more energy in the last couple days (besides having a cold) than I have in the last few weeks. It is a nice feeling! This picture is for those who keep telling me 8 weeks is too early to be showing but I do indeed seem to be developing a baby bump. :)
