Round 2



I know this isn't news to anyone since I can't keep my big mouth shut!  I was going to wait until today when I saw the doc for my three month check up, hear the heartbeat, and make sure everything was okay.  But everyone has known for the past 5 weeks.  There is one surprise though, we aren't finding out what it is.  Since I didn't get to experience a normal birth, and if I have to have another c-section (chances are high), I want something to be a surprise.  I have been feeling pretty lousy this go around and stuff my face as often as I can.  Pregnancy should come with some kind of pay raise to help support the amount spent on eating out!  Nothing ever sounds good around the house and when I get hungry I need it NOW! I totally planned on eating better this time around and working out more so I don't feel so crappy after, but you just can't control those cravings and I am not about to deprive myself of it.  It is an excuse to eat how you want and when you want.  One night I had Ryan go get me Burnt Almond Fudge icecream and peppered beef jerky, SOO good at the time, no desire now. I have stuck with working out though unlike the first time.  It has helped quite a bit, it subsides the nausea and like I said, it has been 10 times worse this time so anything helps.  I feel like a terrible Mother most days because I am so lazy and poor little Isaac is cooped up in the house with me all day.  This week has been a better week, I finally feel like I am getting some energy back. I am lucky that Isaac takes a 3 hour nap so that I can catch some extra z's in the day occasionally (okay daily).  We are very excited though, due the end of August (although I am measuring bigger so I have an ultra sound scheduled next week).  Yay, another summer of being pregnant.  And yes, I will be at the pool all the time this summer, I can't deprive Isaac of that.  So don't be jealous when you see my hot bikini bod by the pool.

P.S. Don't Google images for pregnancy photos, you get more than what you bargained for.

Congrats!!! I'm sorry you have to be big and pregnant in the dead of summer, not so fun, I know from experience. And yes, pay raises should occur from pregnancy, and also, don't feel bad for being tiered all the time. There were days that I couldn't keep my eyes open no matter how hard I tried! I'm stoked for you!

So exciting for your little family! I'm sorry to hear that you've been so sick, though. That's NEVER fun. Do you need help with anything. If you ever want a break, Connor would love to have Isaac come play! Here's to you feeling better really soon.
