I'm back

I'm going to try to keep this updated. I just spent a lot of time making it pretty cute.

Well, I'm six weeks pregnant. The original plan for announcing the pregnancy was to tell relatives and close friends after the first ultrasound and to tell the world when we find out if out baby is a boy or a girl. What really happens is that I tend to tell people whenever it comes up. But Blake is just as guilty as me. We're pretty excited.

When we announced it to our families right as we got a positive pregnancy test, they asked if I had been sick. Four weeks into it, I had no symptoms. If it weren't for the positive test, I wouldn't have even guessed. But now, two weeks later, I am SO tired, SO nauseated, and SO SO sick of throwing up.

Here's the truth about morning sickness. It lasts all day long. All day long for two whole weeks - and counting. Oh well. We'll make it through. Besides the sickness, my pants are quickly becoming uncomfortable. I'm not sure if our baby is super huge or if the pants just bother me because my stomach has been so sick. Our first doctor's appointment is March 1st so we'll have some more news in just over a week.

Other than that nothing much is new. Blake has since graduated and is working at Thermo Fisher. Most of his hours are in the warehouse, but he is in the process of developing an employee wellness program with his degree in Exercise Science so hopefully that will become a full-time position.

I'm working on my last semester of school and that is exciting! It's been a good semester so far. My classes are interesting, I'm not working, and it's flying by.

Our puppy is doing great. She is so much fun and so cute. I told Blake that I hope our baby is as cute as our dog. She's a lab mix, but at six months I think she's just about full-grown, and she only weighs forty pounds. She's the perfect size dog.

I'm excited to find out what our baby is. I want to paint a cute nursery. Right now we have these really ugly curtains in the room we'll be using for the nursery and I told Blake that as soon as we know boy or girl, I'm replacing them with duck curtains or something.

Welcome!

Hello friends and family! Welcome to our blog!

Blake and I have been married for ten months now and time flew by! I can't believe. Life has been a blast. We've been so busy with work and school and our little terror doggie named Annyong, but I wouldn't have it any other way - except, I could go without work and school. Blake is finishing up his last eight credits to graduate and I'm done in May. That is such a great feeling!

There's not much new with us. We just bought a house and we've been setting that up which has been a lot of fun. Our puppy is getting big. Her list of casualties now includes a cell phone charger, two shoes (both mine!), and just about every piece of carpet in our house.

We're super excited for Halloween tomorrow and we're hoping to get a whole bunch of cute neighborhood kids to come trick-or-treating to our house. I'm so excited for the rest of the holiday season to come our way. We've got some fun plans for Christmas.

Well, I think that's about it!

Until next time!
