This pregnancy thing isn't as fun as it may sound, the baby is doing great but mama has been pretty sick. All I can say is I still can't believe how literally everything in and on your body changes so much! It really is quite amazing though, it is so cool seeing how the baby changes so quickly. I'm 13 weeks along. Our baby is now a boy or a girl, most of the organs have formed fully (they just have to get bigger), our baby has teeth buds in the gums, fingernails, arms, legs and is forming hair follicles. AMAZING. But I have had some interesting experiences. First of puking so violently and hard that I literally peed my pants (more than once), embarrassing I know but it's just how it is. Going to the bathroom, while puking in a bag, and at the same time a horrible bloody nose. Yeah this happened twice in a matter of hours. Puking in the car countless times, so emotional, indecisive, stressed. i'm getting iv everyday with fluid, extra calories, and nausea medicine, it helps so I'm grateful for that.  But seeing the ultrasound makes me feel so much better. And can I just say i have the sweetest husband, whether he is holding my hair while i puke, getting me drinks or something to try to munch down, shampooing my hair for me, cleaning up my puke, you name it. That's LOVE!

Grandma's Funeral

  Logan and I went to my grandmother's funeral. it was so
      beautiful. They had a display of so many pictures of her, her
      wedding dress, a book of tons of pictures of wedding cakes
      she made and quilts she made. She was so extremely talented.
      Not to mention what an amazing women she was. She always put
      everyone else first. she especially loved caring for the
      elderly, sick and newly moved in neighbors. Granted being
      pregnant made me even more emotional and there were a few
      times I said to Logan "I'm going to loose my cool, I can't
      hold it together." But it was a beautiful day and I'm so
      grateful to be her grandchild. Hearing about her reminded me
      of how much I want to be like her. Another feeling I had
      during the funeral is how amazing the circle of life is.
      Looking at the little kids with smiles on their faces and
      thinking about our little one on the way made me remember how
      great life can be. 

Grandma Jan-12-2013

I have such fond memories of my grandma. Growing up she did
      so many things that I thought was so amazing! She was such a
      great baker, She made her famous caramel for us and now I
      make it. She taught me how to tie quilts, she was always
      quilting and most of the time the quilt was not for herself.
      She is the most selfish person I know. She loved having
      family around especially her grandkids. As much as it saddens
      me that she has passed on, I have comfort and peace knowing
      she is now with her creator and her body is healed from her
      long battle with Alzheimer's. Love you grandma! 

Pregnancy thoughts

Some of you may know but we were worried about not being able
 to conceive. I've had problems with ovarian cysts,
 endometriosis and hormone problems. So over a year ago, Logan
  and I went to my obgyn. He told us he wouldn't postpone
  trying for a baby if that's what we were wanting we thought
  and pondered about it and decided after a few months to go
  for it. So we tried for one year, I had even been on a
  fertility medication and even with that I never got a
  positive ovulation test. I didn't test like two or three
  months out of the year. Sometimes life is surprising! We
  couldn't be more excited about the baby! The timing is no
  ideal with Logan being is school, and me finishing school and
  still dirt poor, but we know things will work out and we will
  accept it with smiles on our faces (usually) :)
