Well today I am officially 12 weeks pregnant. I guess in my head I though that as soon as I woke up this morning that I would be free of morning sickness and fatigue...maybe that will happen tomorrow. I am hopeful for that day of relief to come, but I am glad to know that the baby is doing well (I've been told that being sick means the pregnancy is going well...I'm hoping they weren't all lying to me.)
In other news, Josh and I spent the past weekend up in Birmingham. We went to my stepmom's surprise birthday party Friday night, which was so much fun. On Saturday, Josh went to play golf with my stepdad Bruce and with Beth's husband Jay. I heard they had a lot of fun, even though they didn't play too well. While they were busy golfing, Beth and I were hosting a baby shower for Caroline and Baby Jasper. It was so much fun! Not to mention, Beth made the most amazing chicken salad for the shower, and I've been craving it since I got back to Laurel.
The most interesting part of the whole weekend was how people kept telling me I was showing and rubbing my belly. I've always had some "fluff" around the middle (for lack of a better term). Usually, I suck it in all day, but my abdominal muscles won't let that happen too much anymore. So everyone was rubbing my fat belly, not the baby, all weekend. It was pretty weird, especially when some of them would keep rubbing my belly after I informed them about my fat. Well, whatever floats your boat.
I think you may have one more week until the 2nd trimester, that is just what most of my stuff said. Anyways, I hope the sickness goes away before then. Thanks for the shower! I had such a great time and I want some more chicken salad too!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I more week, but at least it is getting closer. Glad you enjoyed the shower. That chicken salad is haunting me. Beth told me how she made it, but of course I forgot. I better get her to email the recipe to me.
ReplyDeleteI am an idiot. I guess I can not read. I realize that is what you meant. You may want to disregard anything I say over the next couple of weeks. I am losing my mind! hehe
