Enjoying the Sunshine!

I have to tell you, I'm tired of feeling sick. Morning sickness blows. Alex told me the other night that I was this sick with Nathan too. Was I? Because I don't remember. I tried really hard for a minute to remember being this sick, but I couldn't. Then I realized, this is a good thing! In a few months I won't remember this either!! So, later that night, as I was lying in bed feeling miserable, I wrote in my journal: "I won't remember this. I won't remember this..." over and over and over again. It was slightly comforting, I must say.

I finally felt well enough to wash some clothes last night. When I say "some" clothes, I mean about 10 loads. And I didn't really "feel" like washing clothes, but Joshua had been wearing the same shorts for 3 days and Alex was complaining that he didn't have any clean underwear...so it was time. Joshua helped me with the whole process. He's such a wonderful helper and I'm so proud of him.

It was a beautiful day today so I went outside and watched the boys ride their bikes. They loved the extra freedom. For months they have been confined to just the backyard, so being able to venture out was nice. And I was once again able to enjoy the sunshine!

Here are some pictures:

Things are beginning to look up! I'm becoming fonder and fonder of this little one growing inside of me now that the morning sickness is easing up. I've spent hours just thinking about what he/she will look like! The possibilities are endless! I wonder if I could end up with a blond-haired daughter?

I'm itching to sew a bunch of baby stuff, but I haven't felt well enough to even think about a project. I want to make receiving blankets, bibs and hats. Maybe in a few weeks. I can't wait!
