6 Weeks!

A new week for Baby Padawan.  And as I sit here thinking about the little bean growing inside me, my sister in law just welcomed her newest baby into the world via c section.  Welcome to the world, Liam!  Can't wait to meet you!

I've been feeling a little punky lately.  I spent the entire weekend laying about and doing a whole lot of nothing.  Napping was about the extent.  But I feel like my body needs it, so I'll happily oblige in naptime.  I felt some late morning morning sickness on Monday.  I was at work and thought I was going to puke all over my desk.  I had to run to the bathroom, but I hate throwing up, so I just kept it down and sucked it up.  I went home for lunch and had some delicious toast and a cheese stick.  I'm kind of craving cheese sticks right now... which I guess is good, since I'm supposed to be getting like 3-4 servings of dairy a day, I think... I had more sickness yesterday morning with banana in my mouth.  I was driving to a client facility for work and I almost puked all over the dashboard.  Maybe bananas are gonna be my no-no for my pregnancy.  I think it's a consistency thing.

My first appointment is in 6 days.  I'm so nervous.  I wish my hubby was home to go with me, but my mom is gonna tag along, so at least I won't be alone.  I really want them to do an ultrasound, but if they don't, I'm gonna see if they'll do one when my hubby is home in March.  That would make it much more special for us, and I'm OK with waiting if it means my hubby gets to be there with me and the little bean.

I told my best friend last night about our news.  So my 3 best girlfriends know, my hubby's 2 best friends know, my 2 sisters, my mom and step dad know.  And hopefully we'll keep it that way until we decide to divulge the info.  I think we plan to tell my in-laws in March when hubby gets home.  I'm sure they'll be over the moon.

I guess that's about all of the happy funness I have for this week.  I'm ready to feel pregnant.

To my precious little bean... I'm thinking about you all the time.  Every time my stomach twitches in hunger, every time I'm laying on the couch at 6:30 ready to go to bed, every time I see a commercial on TV with a momma loving on her baby, every time I think about how much I love your daddy and can't wait to see him love on you... I'm just so thrilled, so excited, so happy, so relieved, so ready for the journey to continue.  I love you already, and you're just a tiny little bean.  xoxo
