As many of you know, I was very sick the first couple weeks of my pregnancy. Well, I should say week 8-14. I thought for a few weeks that I would miss that stage, and breeze right on by, and never get sick. Well, there's a funny thing that happens once you've been that sick, (I will refer to this as "progesterone poisoning" not morning sickness, see previous post about "girl friends guide to pregnancy" it's a must read.) Anywho...once you've been sick, there are things that you will maybe never be able to eat again in your whole life. Here are a few of those things for me....
Another thing that has changed, is my hands and feet, (along with the rest of my body I should say.) I have officially outgrown my wedding ring. It's a combination of getting married after dancing for 6 years and being in "good" shape, moving to Texas and the heat, and being pregnant. All of these combined, I had to set my wedding ring aside, (don't worry it's in our safety deposit box), and buy a fake ring to get me by. It's been kind of fun. People are noticing the change, and asking if Chris was given a raise at work....I just laugh.
Here is the first public photo of me being pregnant. I thought black was nice, it's a little slimming. I have not gained much weight for those who must ask....only 4 pounds as of last visit. (Remember though I did lose 12 during the "progesterone poisoning" stage. 
Well. That's all for now. It's been super HOT in Texas, surprise!!!!!! We have had 21 days over 100*F consecutively. It did pour last night, just buckets, which was nice I didn't have to water the house today, I thought it might only be in the 90's. I was wrong. (Yes, I did say water my house. In Texas you have to water the foundation, slab, or you'll get cracks in the foundation and walls.)
Until Next Time.....
