12 weeks

It has been amazing how much better I have feel this last week! Getting to 12 weeks and the end of my 1st trimester also seems to be the end of being soooo sick! Thank goodness for that!!!! I'm finally started to feel like a real person again and I couldn't be happier! Time to move on to actually enjoying this pregnancy like I've been wanting for so long. :) I will actually be 13 weeks tomorrow and I decided today that I'm OFFICIALLY Pregnant! LOL Yes, while I've been pregnant for the last 13 weeks, but today I had to eat 2 lunches!! Yes, you read that right, 2 lunches! I ate the lunch that I had brought from home and the snacks I brought for the afternoon and was still hungry so I went and got a burrito from Taco Bell. I was so excited!!! I know that I sound like a pig, but after 12 weeks of hearing the word food or seeing food, and just wanting to puke, its so nice to be wanting food! Ahh, the little things that excite me in my life as a pregnant woman! LOL
I wore a swim suit for the first time 2 weekends ago and I've gotten to the point where I just look fat instead of pregnant. I took my sister Cammie, who was in town for the week last week, to the pool last Thursday and of course past these super skinny beautiful teenager girls who looked alot older than they really were. And we past them and I of course I could just feel them looking at me thinking I was too fat to be wearing the 2 piece suit that I was. I wanted to walk past them and say, "I'm pregnant, not fat!" LOL I know that I should have just cared less, but hey I'm like most other women, I care!  I know that in just a few short weeks I'll have my bump and you'll be able to tell that I really am pregnant and not just fat!

10 weeks

This week I'm 10 weeks along! So much for me started to feel better with my morning sickness, I was doing so well too. Woke up Sunday am and got sick and by Monday I couldnt keep anything down again. By Tuesday afternoon I was back in the hospital getting IVs of fluids again. I'm learning that some day are just going to be bad with morning sickness and some days are good. It comes and goes and you never know whats in store for the day. I'm hoping that since I'm getting closer to the end of my first trimester that I will soon have morning sickness be a thing of the past. Ryan and I have really gotten excited lately with starting to get some things for the baby. Ryan seems to be a pro at yard sale bargain finding and has found some great deals for us. He already found a school desk for the baby, a lil early I think,but hey when Baby Kaye starts school Baby Kaye will have a place to do homework. Ryan also picked up a diaper changing table. It needs a new paint job and it will be fun to redo it together:)
   Ryan and I did get a chance to go to a cookout last night and hang out with some friends. It was nice to be able to get out of the house for a little bit and do something besides feeling sick and being at home. I'm trying to make sure and push myself to get out and do things so I'll feel alittle bit better. I think I actually ate more last night then I have since I've been pregnant! I was pretty happy about it! I still haven't gotten a little bump yet, I seem to just be losing weight with getting sick and not feeling like eating much. I am definately ready to start looking pregnant along with just feeling pregnant!
I'm hoping that this week goes by fast, my sister Cammie is coming to visit again this year for a week started on Friday! Ryan is going to pick her up in Branson and I'm so excited! I love hanging out with my sister and we all had so much fun last year when she came to visit so I'm really looking forward to her visit! She will be here in Arkansas for a week and then my mom, grandpa, nephew and my other sister will be here to visit for the weekend!!! I cant wait!! I love my family and I don't get to see them enough, but thats why when I do it makes the visit that much better!

9 weeks

I am 9 weeks as of two days ago and Baby Kaye is about the size of a small strawberry! I'm finally starting to feel better and not feel like all I can do is be attached to our couch! Yeah! Its been a tough couple of weeks, two weeks ago I landed myself in the ER from being so dehydrated. I think in one day I literally got sick about 25 times!!!! I couldnt keep anything down and so I called the Dr. and was told to get to the ER for an iv of fluids. I then went and saw the Dr. the next day and again had to go and get iv fluids. I was beginning to think I wasnt going to be able to keep anything down and then after the 2 ivs I was finally able to keep some food down. Sonic Ice has become my favorite thing lately! I think that we could invest some stock in Sonic this pregnancy with all the money they will be getting from us. LOL It least they have half price drinks from 2-4pm daily! Its actually just been the last couple of days that I've been craving any food at all, but for the most part I'm still not very hungry and have to rely on the clock and my wonderful husband to make sure I eat when I should. I gotta keep this baby getting bigger! I thought I was starting to show a couple of weeks ago, but it probably was just me bloating and then with me being so sick I've been losing weight instead of gaining any. The Dr. says thats normal, but hopefully I'll start getting my bump here soon.:)
