Finally figured out how to post a picture and thought I'd post one of the wee girl...this was taken about 4 months ago...she's changed a lot since then...but it really like the picture

Suffering the Mum-dumbs

Short post because I'm frustrated and hungry. I'm hungry because it's lunch time, frustrated because I just burnt my lunch to a stinky crisp...and still hungry. I'm finally starting to feel a little better and feeling motivated enough to set foot in the kitchen...a big struggle for me in the first trimester....silly me got side-tracked reading other blogs, forgot that I was making lunch and burned it...it's more than mum-dumbs, I think I'd call it the pregnancy-stupids. Hopefully things start looking up into my second trimester...or else I may altogether starve. (Not really, cause I can make toast and dan is an adequate supper maker).

Keeping My Head Out Of The Toilet


There's my reason why I haven't posted in a while. I've been trying to keep my head out of the toilet. Morning sickness--don't know why they call it that...it seems like it's been all day sickness for me-- is the pits. Last week was the worst (I think my doctor jinxed me, since he was believed that being 3 months along things should improve....yeah right...), on the upside of it...Emma-Rose and I caught most of the olympic events last week. That was fun. She really likes the hockey games especially.

Last weekend we spent the day with Dan's family and his brother's little baby was there. Emma-Rose mothered him the whole day. She's going to be a great big sister. I'm looking forward to that. Meanwhile, 6 months to go...I don't think I'm looking forward to being pregnant during the summer. I wasn't with emma-rose and that was nice--at least for me cause in the dead of winter when I was boiling hot all I had to do was turn down the heat (really it was off completely--much to Dan's sadness). We don't have air conditioning here so hopefully it will be a cool summer (right cool summer in southern ontario...i must be dreaming).

Anyhow, my stomach is growling...again...must go eat....
