The Rumors Are TRUE!!!...

Hadley and I are expecting! We are so excited to start a family together. Right now I'm eight weeks along. So that puts my due date at September 17th. Our baby is the size of a raspberry! The past five weeks have been really rough as far as the pregnancy goes. At week three the morning sickness hit me like a cement wall. And let me tell you, for those of you who had morning sickness only in the MORNING, consider yourself blessed! In my case it was every minute of the hour sickness. I was constantly shoving saltines down my throat just to keep something in my stomach at all times. This went on for about two weeks, then I was back to normal for a week, thinking I was over that stage.. Think again... it was back in no time. The other day Hadley thought he would make some eggs for breakfast, I told him I should just stick to my usual bowl of rice chex and to just make him some. I was about to leave for school, when the smell of those scrambled eggs nearly shot me out of the ceiling like a cartoon movie. I was going to grab my keys then bolt out of the house as fast as I could. Not so fast, I saw the eggs Hadley had cooked up and that was it... I saw my chex cereal once again, but this time it wasn't so appetizing. So since then the thought of eggs makes me dry heave. And don't even get me started on the smell of chicken! Ok, so I'm making it sound like I've been nothing but miserable. But that's not true, I'm so excited for this experience. I can't wait to hold and kiss the babie's little face.
So now that mine and Had's lives are about to change forever, we are trying to get ready to be parents. Although there isn't much for Had to do right now, he's been really supportive and takes care of me when my head is over the toilet. As for me, I'm stocked up on mommy to be books and registered for almost every pregnancy website there is. My family and friends have all been supportive and have given me lots of advice, which is so helpful. We are so excited to be parents and start this journey together!
