Bumpdate: Week 7



How Far along: 7 weeks

Baby's size: blueberry! 

Weight loss/gain: Lost about 3 lbs, I've been working out normally, and plan to continue unless the OB says otherwise!

Sleep:  I should not have bragged about my "rock sleeping!" Starting this week I get up nightly to go pee and if I try to resist it and go back to sleep, I hurt!  I think there was only one night that I didn't get up.  Thankfully, I am able to fall right back to sleep! : ) Yay!

Gender:  Chinese gender chart predicts a bouncing baby boy, but again, who knows?  I still say I don't want us to find out, and Zach is not swaying that he definitely does!

Movement: Baby is moving in there reportedly, but I am oblivious to it (of course) and will be for quite a while!

Best Moment of this week: My first Dr. Appt being 2 days away!

Looking Forward to: The dr. appt for confirmation and scheduling my first ultrasound after that!

Food cravings:  Nothing so far.

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing really.  I just feel like I eat all. day. long.

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Morning/Noon/Night sickness arrived at the very beginning of the week when I was babysitting Saturday night.  I ate mini corn dogs at the people's house and felt sooo incredibly sick for the next 7 hours until I went to bed.  Thankfully, it seems like I have a bad
sicky" day and then the next day is better.  At least BS is letting it alternate!

Symptoms:  Just the icky-sicky!

Workouts: Walked on treadmill Monday and Wednesday.

What I miss:  Not a thing.  I can't complain it all because I know those who would do anything to be pregnant, and I'm not taking anything for granted!

Things that stink: Feeling sick, just because I feel like I am quicker to snap at the kids and I just feel kinda lousy.

Things that don't stink: Knowing our little miracle is growing in my tummy and that our God is knitting them together in his image.  Sweetest thing ever!  Also, Zach ran out and got everything known to man to help pregnancy sickness on Monday night.  Melted my heart, and it made me feel some better!

Mama's Thoughts: I am of course reminded daily of BS's presence, and am so thankful God is choosing me to be his/her mother.  I honestly don't care if we have a girl or boy, just praying that they are perfectly healthy in there!

Daddy's Thoughts: Zach didn't say a whole lot on baby, but is still doing a great job of rubbing my belly cream on every night (awww!) and prays over baby every night.  I just know he's going to be the best and sweetest daddy!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
