I'm alive / Pregnancy Update

Yes...I'm still alive...
I'm very aware that I fell off the face of the earth for the last few weeks...
I apologize.
I can honestly say that I have been sick as a dog, lazy as heck and dealing with a family death.
My family is recovering well...I'm just starting to feel a little bit better and am back at work!
Summer break was amazing, but time to get the school year rolling...

CJ is having a fabulous summer break! He went to Texas to stay with my family for 6 weeks!!
Now he is traveling with my in-laws to a resort in Ft. Lauderdale
...he is a spoiled little something!

I have pictures coming soon but right now Im lucky to even be blogging.
 Im so exhausted, praying this second semester gives me a boost...I really do apologize...


Pregnancy Update
How far along: 14 weeks & 2 days

How am I feeling: Sick & exhausted...plain & simple.

How is CJ doing: I believe CJ half way forgets until I tell him not to jump on mommy because he is gonna hurt his baby. Then he resorts to rubbing my stomach and talking to his "twin brother & sister" in baby talk. Yes he wants twins & has names for them already. Even though I have explained countless times there is one baby & we dont know whether it's a girl or a boy. Im sure it will make more sense to him once I start really showing!

Maternity Clothes: I have been wearing dresses the entire summer break, but since starting back to work my regular pants just arent working anymore. So I have bought 1 pair of work maternity pants from Target. I cannot find my old maternity clothes from my son...but I havent tried looking that hard either...Think Im going to buy a bella band from Target today after work. Hopefully it will last me until at least 6 or 7 months?? Maybe...maybe not!
Movement: No...I "imagine" I do at night, while Im laying wide awake due to random insomnia
Food cravings: Chicken Nuggets....I know weird right? Also turkey sandwiches, who knows??
Food aversions: Frosted Flakes and anything that taste like queso (depressing I know). Just praying the nausea will go away, I think I make myself throw up sometimes because it kills me to just stay nauseous.
Gender: I dont know, but wish I did....kinda
Symptoms: Nausea. Headaches. Smells that make me gag, even when I just think about the smell. Indegestion. Random constipation.
Nursery Progress: LOL not even though about...trying to get a new house asap though!!

Best moment this week: The few hours I can get through without any bad feelings or preggo pains.
What I am looking forward to: Not being sick, not being nauseous...going through one whole day just feeling pregnant in a GOOD way!!
Sorry no pictures this time...I honestly DISLIKE my computer and how slow it is and how LONG it takes to upload and edit all my pics. Laziness...I know, sorry again.
Also I want to say thanks to all my blog friends that gave me CONGRATS on my pregnancy during my absence. A super CONGRATS to my blog friends that have delivered during my absence, especially Heather...her daughter is beautiful!!  

And to all my friends that are still TTCing...
I'm still praying for you all & you are NOT forgotten I promise!
  
Til next time
