Just Call Me Sherlock

I have figured it out! Well...at least I have figured it out-today. The key was for me to eat something every 2 hours. This week has been awful. Yesterday was the worst. I got sick the most in one day yet this pregnancy...I'll spare any more of the details. Anyhow, eating every 2 hours today helped me to keep everything down!! Small victories, right?

Also on the bright side, so far this pregnancy I have lost 5 pounds...NOT the way I want to lose it, but still. I'm trying to look at the positives.

We're ready for the weekend! Hoping for a date night and then a pizza and movie night with friends on Saturday evening, yay! Happy Friday. =)

News

Little Stellan had heart surgery yesterday, a risky ablation, and the procedure was a SUCCESS!! He is not out of the woods yet though, so the family still needs prayer. MckMama's blog has all the details.

This weekend we shared with my In-Law's (and church family) that we are expecting again! Our little one is due in June, so Lord-willing, Mr. P will be a big brother this Summer. :) He does seem excited about it, even though he told me recently, "Mom, we don't need another baby." Hmm...I'm thinking he'll change his mind when the time comes. It just may take some getting used to.

I'm 8 weeks along, so pretty nauseated and food generally does NOT sound good. Wonder why it is, that if I have to prepare and cook a meal, I'm gagging the entire time and have a hard time eating it...but if we go OUT to eat or over to someone's house, I can actually enjoy eating. Strange to me.

We did get to see our little baby (the size of a kidney bean I read online) yesterday on an ultrasound, so that was neat. The tech even gave us pictures! It's amazing how much you can see at this point. We even got to see where the back of the brain was developing. It amazes me that some believe that life does NOT begin at conception.

Hope everyone is having an amazing week!
