Long Time Gone

Wow! Here we are in 2010 and beginning the second week of February. I, for one, have been pleased to have the time pass. Although I feel that it is extremely important to enjoy the present, I have been looking forward to moving out of these first weeks/months of pregnancy. I am at week 13 and am feeling loads better than I had. We found out we were expecting the beginning of Dec and right before Christmas break, morning sickness joined my life. I ended up in the ER because of dehydration and now take medicine for the nausea but I've been able to cut back a lot since the first weeks. I would never wish morning sickness on my worst enemy! Andrew, of course, was affected as well by the whole thing and has been such a gem in helping me out. Also, thanks to my friends that have helped with dinners, survival bags, and listening ears, I have made it through. I haven't decided if going to work has helped or hindered...I think it's good for the most part so that I get up and get going. I just wish in fourth grade we could take naps at 1 in the afternoon! :) We heard the heartbeat at 10 weeks and that was a cool experience. Anyway, that explains why I haven't updated this in a while.

We went to MT for Thanksgiving and enjoyed our time up there. Then we stayed here for Christmas because Andrew's family came here.

These pictures are from a "photo shoot" that we had Andrew's twin do for us in order to get a Christmas card picture.


Well, this is just our update and hopefully I'll stay on it a little better! :)
