Appreciation

So, I guess this blog is becoming more of a journal with the last few entries, but it's mine and I can do what I want. :)
Since feeling better (it now being 3 weeks since I last threw up...yes, I'm still on the medicine), I have felt a much increased appreciation for good health and other little things. I am grateful that I don't have to plug my nose, turn my head, and leeeeeeaaaaan in to get something each time I open the fridge. I am grateful that looking at dirty dishes doesn't make me run to the bathroom anymore, that the smell of boiling water doesn't phase me, that I can come home from work, and although hungry and tired, I have enough umph and interest to cook a real meal, serve it, and clean up. I appreciate that I can clean the bathtub, and the rest of the house on that note. I love that I can read a book and not get "motion sickness." I appreciate that food sounds good again and it's not quite as potent. Those are just a few things that I have been thinking of in the last few weeks.
Andrew has been such a wonderful help through these last months! I couldn't ask for a better husband.

Baby Boy

Today was a really fun day! During my lunch break Andrew and I went to our 20 week ultrasound appt. The ultrasound was SO cool! I loved seeing the body and the ultrasonographer going over measurement and helping us understand the "salt and pepper" fight on the screen. :) We were very excited when we found out that we will be having a healthy baby boy in Aug. He actually is measuring a week big so we'll see when he ends up coming. Anyway, just want to share with you...I"ll have to scan in some pictures of the ultrasound...they aren't too becoming but just cool. :)
