Not much new here…
I haven’t posted in awhile because, well basically nothing much is new. My days are so incredibly full with work and being a mom and trying to remain somewhat insane during this first trimester. I’ve been feeling positively icky and positively tired and basically go to bed ASAP. I go to the doctor next week for the first time. I really hope there aren’t heartbeat issues…she doesn’t really do ultrasounds unless there is a problem or just for the big one where you can find out the sex, so I’m just remaining positive. I just feel so sad for those who have struggled with their pregnancies. It SUCKS! But, I have to know that if something were to happen, it has to be for a reason….something just wasn’t right with the baby. It’s just really really hard to think about.
I’m definitely quite a bit rounder. Even my size 18s I’ve been wearing are super tight at the end of the day. I’m ready to move into maternity pants, but still feel kind of weird doing that before people at work know…and with my growing belly and the incredible fullness of my boobs, well, they probably just think I’m gaining weight…which I am…about 7 or so pounds so far. The exercise has basically stopped because I’m so dang tired at the end of the day, and as soon as it stops, the weight starts to pile on…regardless of what I eat…and I definitely feel like I need more carb heavy foods to help settle the ickyness. Anyway, I’m trying really hard to eat out less, make sure I’m cooking healthy meals and making the best choices possible. I am super hungry though at times!!! SO, that’s what’s going on!!!
We are going to NYC this weekend for a visit. My hubby is presenting at a conference on Friday morning and then we’re going to play the rest of the weekend. The dang Stagehands strike is going to keep us from seeing play we’ve been dying to see, but what can you do? It’ll be awesome to be back in the city, feel urban (which always makes me happy!) and take Abel (DS) for the first time. He just turned 1 last week and is just totally awesome. 
That’s my news in a nutshell. Cheers to everyone out there!
Hey there! I hope all is well since we haven’t heard from you in so long. I am sure you are keeping busy at this time of year just like the rest of us!
