Calling Dinosaurs

I've been nauseous for a few weeks now, but the last few days I've graduated from nausea to true morning sickness. Only the name doesn't fit the crime, because I'm not only sick in the morning, but in the afternoon, and in the evening. At least not in the middle of the night, right? Probably cause I'm so darn tired to even think about it. So I've been enjoying stacks of saltine crackers and bottles of ginger ale. It's actually the first time I've tried ginger ale. I thought it would taste gross, but actually it tastes like a really good combo of 7-up and sprite. Yummmmmmy. Really, I don't have it as bad as some women do, and it's not every day either. So I'm thanking God for that and also thanking God that I'm halfway through the first trimester. We have another ultrasound on the 14th. I can't think of a better way to celebrate Valentine's day and the extravagant love I have for my husband than hearing the heartbeat of our child. I'm so excited!!!
                          

Speaking of extravagant love for my husband, he's so incredibly wonderful. I really can't even describe how great of a husband and best friend he is to me. Being married to him is even better than I imagined. And I had high expectations!! He cooks me dinner when I'm too sick or tired, he puts up with me being tired and going to bed early and taking so many naps (usually by playing Call of Duty), he snuggles with me on the couch when I'm too exhausted to move, he makes runs to the store for me when I don't feel good or have a food craving, he rubs my feet, AND he brought me roses for no reason :-) I really love him so much.



Even though I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired, it's sooooooo worth it. I would go through it every day for all nine months if it meant I get to see God's idea of a perfect combination of Jason and I. But.....I've heard the second trimester is better. Bring it on :-)
