We are still here...

Update time! I am still pretty sick but I have been given medication to help. It does for the most part. I am still very sensitive to smells and that has been a bit of a problem for everyone. There is a limited group of things that I can cook myself with out being sick about it. So far everyone is handling it pretty well though I know we are all ready for me to feel better so that life can be normal again. I really want to be a wife and mother again. Right now it is hit and miss, but I am happy to say that my family is taking very good care of me, especially Brady. He has been amazing through all of this. I can see how tired he is too, but he doesn't complain and he just keeps right on going. Just makes me love him even more than I already do.

The baby is doing just fine. My Doctor is excellent and I am very happy that I was assigned to him. He has just returned from deployment so I don't have to worry about him getting shipped off right in the middle of my pregnancy, and he is very nice and did everything to make me comfortable (well as comfortable as things can be...I'm sure that all you women who have yearly check-ups know how that goes). We got to see the baby and everything looks good. Good strong heart beat and was wiggling around like crazy. The baby was measuring a bit smaller than my dates (a week to be exact) but the Doctor decided to leave my due date as is since I am 100% sure of when my last period was. And a week really isn't that big of a deal since due dates are give or take two weeks anyway. He said we will re-evaluate at my my big ultrasound. I am really looking forward to getting well into my second trimester since that is usually when I feel better. Then I might really enjoy this miracle. :o) I would have picture of the baby to show you but the Doctor couldn't get the machine to print so we will have to wait till next time.

Other than that stuff things have been pretty boring here. Mostly I try really hard to keep the house from getting out of control and the kids busy and happy while I try to feel better. We are looking forward to a visit from grandma and grandpa in a couple of weeks and then a visit to Vegas after that!
