Here it is

Ok ok, I know it has been a few weeks since my last post. I just haven't been getting on the computer much. This morning sickness thing has taken on a mind of its own. Yeah, instead of being sick in the morning, it progressively gets worse throughout the day. By the time I get home from work I can barely muster the willpower to get Destiny dinner, bathed and in bed before I crash myself. Today I am one day from the 11 week mark. Which, according to all the books, my energy boost should be JUSSSSST around the corner. I'm looking forward to that just as I would a vacation!

And in Destiny's corner, she is going through an extreme clingy phase. Weird enough is that it isn't that bad when I take her to school, but more so when I leave her at night. Whether it be me going to school, or her going to her dad's she acts like it's a tragedy. Just hoping this phase passes quickly. Kindergarten is just around the corner!

What is that smell!?

Ok, so I get home today to a funky smell in the kitchen. Not that my morning sickness (progesterone poisoning) isn't bad enough. So I rewash the dishes in the dishwasher, run the garbage disposal with dish soap and baking soda, take out all the trash (gagging this whole time). Alas never found the smell. I don't know if I got it or if maybe I got use to it or what. But I can't smell it right now. Hopefully I got it. So I open the windows to air out the house and let some nice air in. Well, they are re-roofing our house, so I get that smell, on top of the noise.

Onto better things, Destiny has been a joy this afternoon, from laying on her tummy to see if the smell was coming from under the fridge, to starting her Mother's day surprises. I keep getting, "don't look Mommy! Wait till Sunday!"

Lazy Saturday

Usually I sleep in much later on Saturday. But I guess when I go to bed at 9pm on a Friday night I shouldn't expect to sleep much later than 8 on Saturday. It's also quite lonely here since Brandon has duty this weekend and Destiny is with her Daddy. So I finally buckled down and started this blog that mom has been wanting me to start. Something she has against myspace I guess lol :)

I'm trying to keep this morning sickness stuff at bay. Even if it means eating every 2-3 hours. Believe it or not, eating like this would have made me think I have gained at least 10 pounds in a week. But thankfully, no, only a half pound in the last two weeks. Besides, you aren't supposed to really start gaining until later right? It has been so long since I was pregnant with Destiny that it almost feels like I am starting all over again. And I guess that the worrying doesn't change. I tend to find something to worry about constantly. Even though I keep telling myself that the odds are overwhelmingly in my favor that I will have a healthy baby. That is something I do remember though. I constantly expected something bad to happen the nine months before Destiny was born. I contributed it to having tried so hard and finally getting her as the reason I worried so much, but no, I am thinking it is a normal part of the ride.

So I'm off to start my Saturday. I believe my cousin should be here this evening. I'm quite exited for this, because I haven't seen her in many years! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
