9 Weeks (1/18/2012)


Unfortunately I do not have any belly pictures for this week. Last Wednesday, as soon as I hit the 8 week mark, my morning sickness decided to kick in. I'd like to know who named it "morning sickness" rather than "all day sickness." It has been a pretty rough week. My nine hours at work are especially horrible. I'm pretty sure my coworkers think I have a tape worm since I am constantly eating. However, that seems to be the only way to keep the nausea at bay. I'm also tired of eating at this point, especially since there are only about 5 things I can tolerate/want to eat. Here is a picture of my meal of choice- potato chips and lemonade. For whatever reason these seem to be the most soothing foods on my stomach. According to an old wives tale a lot of morning sickness indicates you are having a boy. We'll see if this holds true in a couple of months.

So we got an extra sneak peak at Baby Sheldon this week:





Just Kidding! Maybe we will have a football player on our hands though :) Despite losing to Tom Brady and the Patriots this past weekend we thought we would pay homage to Tim Tebow.



We have a few videos to post with family member reactions. Hopefully this weekend I will have some energy to get those up!
