Seriously. I swear I woke up and it was July already. Time flies when you're busy as shit and work doesn't slow down. Ha! Andrew and I leave for our "baby-moon" tomorrow and I am very excited to have 5 glorious days off of work. We head to Wisconsin tomorrow to stay with my cousin, Amber. Then on Thursday we head to Minneapolis to see Rifftrax Live! Sharknado. I am so excited that I FINALLY get to see a Rifftrax Live event. We are going to hang out in Minneapolis/Bloomington and go to the Mall of America because neither of us has ever been! On Saturday we are heading to Davenport and will stay with Valerie and then finally head back home on Sunday. We are going to have a nice little tour of the upper Midwest. I'm hoping my nausea doesn't ruin my trip and when we aren't out and about I plan on napping and doing as little as possible.
Pregnancy Things: 19 Weeks
Andrew didn't get to be in this one because I took it here at work. Haha. I haven't been taking pictures because I always forget and then I wake up on a Friday and go "Wow! It's a new week already, I should take a picture." And then I don't. I will hopefully take one on Friday at the hotel for 20 weeks. That is the halfway point after all.
Feeling: Still nauseous every day. I am so thankful for the pills my OB gave me or else I don't know how I would function. I haven't thrown up since week 10 or so… but I do dry heave in the mornings sometimes and it isn't fun. I'll be one of those women that puke during labor. Just you wait. I have my moments where I have super bursts of energy but for the most part I am still very tired; especially after a long, busy day at work. I had to be here at 7:00 this morning and I guarantee by 1:00 I'll be ready to leave and go take a nap.
Cravings: One week I only wanted Arby's roast beef sandwiches. Another week I only wanted ice cream with chocolate syrup. This last week I've wanted meat. Mostly beef. It is so funny to me that every week I want something different. It is so hard to grocery shop when my body wants different things all of the time. Oh, and I'm still on a pickle kick. EAT ALL THE PICKLES. I make Andrew laugh on a daily basis when I randomly say "I need pickles" at 9:00 at night. The other night I cooked a thing of Mac'n'Cheese at 10:00. Almost ate the entire box. Andrew helped.
Other Things: We find out the gender of Baby C on Monday morning!! Right away at 8:30. I am so excited. To this day I still have no inclination one way or another of what this baby is and I am so excited to find out so that I can start making a registry and start planning my nursery! I have a feeling I'll still paint the nursery the same color for either a boy or a girl; I just want to pick out my accent colors and some kind of a theme (if any)!
That's really all I have to update, folks. I know I've been MIA for a while… but between school, work, and a new house I find it hard to sit down and take a moment to type. I do miss my blog though and hopefully will be able to post more regularly soon.
