My life right now has suddenly taken a turn! I may or may not have expected such a turn. But it's been pretty rough. I'm starving all the time. Which is a pleasant change from not wanting food near me or in me. Apple Chips and I were good friends though for about a week. They taste like tree-bark but boy they did wonders for the nausea. I have also noticed that I have immediately aged about 60 years. I NEED to be in bed by 10 (even though I would prefer about 6ish, but I consider that unnecessary), if that for some reason does not happen the next day is ruined. AND if I do not succeed in taking a nap in the middle of the day the next day still might be ruined, it's a little less of a surety though. What could all of this MEAN?! By golly, if you haven't gotten it yet, you silly, then I MUST RESORT to photographic thing!
This blurry picture is of "Answer." That's not the name I gave it HOWEVER, it does provide me with the UTMOST helpful answer to the burning question "what the heck is wrong with me?" Yes, after looking back and forth between this pee stick and the box it turns out that I am PREGNANT! Hmmm... that didn't take very long. And heck, it was a LOT easier than I expected it to be.
It's so weird to think that Joseph and I will be parents. It's still sort of blowing my mind. The nausea and uncomfortableness is a constant reminder that I am growing a baby inside of me. It makes me wonder how in the world someone could not want a thing like this. It's a miracle. It testifies to me even more the greatness of our Heavenly Father. What a gift He has given us to bring children into the world. What a responsibility! But I'm happy. I keep looking at Joseph imagining him with our baby who will then be our toddler and so on. I can see him running around with our kid like a crazy person just trying to get a laugh or a giggle out. I look forward to our baby pooping on Joseph while I get the bath water ready because he took the baby out of his diaper too soon. Ha! That'll be hilarious. All in all, I look forward to watching our children grow and watching them grow with Joseph and I.
