Just a quick update- - well, I feel TERRIBLE! I don't remember feeling this sick with my other pregnancies. Did I just forget? I am having a hard time functioning. Marcus got the flu this weekend and threw up in the car yesterday - - I am just sooo glad it happened on a weekend when Jon was off! We ended up staying home from church today (except Jon because he had to miss last week, and will also miss next week) - - I could hardly drag myself out of bed. Luckily it was a nice relaxing day for the most part with Jon home. I am sooo grateful for his help, when he is able to be home. Well, I just have to push through every day- I KNOW I can handle it, because what else am I going to do? Many others go through this too . . . and as I keep saying, I am still very happy about being pregnant. I can't say that I am happy about feeling so sick, but well, I was expecting it. Up, up, up the mountain I go!
On a better note, I did get out of the house with Marcus and Cynthia yesterday (before Marcus got sick) and we went to Eisenhower High School's production of HONK. It was great! It is the story of the ugly duckling and was darling, with such a good message. We really enjoyed it. Cynthia was so sweet and said, "I would NEVER be mean to someone who is different! I would be their friend!" So true Cynthia- I can see you being like that, and it makes me so proud.

I'm so sorry you feel so yucky. That first part is so hard. I think you do forget a little bit how bad it is, that's why we still want to get pregnant. Hope you're feeling better soon. I don't know if I already told you but congrats.
Sorry you are feeling so yucky right now. I am sure it will only last a few more weeks and then you will be feeling better soon.
Congrats again! And I know how hard it can be feeling so sick and having a kid with the flu sick too. NOT fun. When those moments happen remember you are not alone. Wish so badly I was there to help you out. I would be at your home in a heartbeat.
That first bit of being sick is SO hard! Just take it as easy as you can, go borrow movies for you and the kids from the library...we watched a lot of TV when I was pregnant with Bryan! :)
Oh Becky I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO behind on everyone's blogs, so I know this is dreadfully late, but
CONGRATULATIONS on the pregnancy!!!
Oh my gosh I am so excited for you, and even though I think you must be a glutton for punishment with Jon gone so much and your plate so full already, I know you are a SPECTACULAR mom, and this new baby will add so much joy to your life!
I'm so sorry you're feeling nauseous; that's so hard. I felt sick with every single pregnancy, and when you have other kids needing you all day long, it's not really possible to just veg out with a good book until it passes. Hopefully you'll still be able to get everything done that needs doing, and feel fine about letting the rest wait! I hope it eases up soon Becky...
Take care, and CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!!!
I definitely think we do forget how hard it is to be pregnant sick! Even though we know the end result is more than worth it, that doesn't make the here-and-now easy, especially with Jon gone so much. I would love to have Lillian come play with my girls any day you need a break from kids. I am serious - Evie would love the company!
