Weekly update!
How far along?: somewhere in the 6 week period
Weight gain/loss: unknown
Symptoms: ugggg "morning sickness" has really kicked into overdrive. while I've still yet to get sick, I feel like I could at any moment
Gender: I'm wondering if it's a girl because so far this pregnancy feels night and day different than my pregnancy with Colin
Sleep?: not often enough but should get better now that we are home
Best moment this week?: sharing our news with Mark and Missy! If was wonderful to be able to share the news in person and have them share in our joy.
Movement: too early although I'm still experiencing some cramping. I feel like it's too early for round ligament pain but maybe I should look into it.
Food cravings/aversions: no cravings but the thought of food still doesn't ever sound good to me.
What I miss?: not feeling sick all the time
What I am looking forward to?: still my appointment on the 29th!
Milestones: may sound silly but right now I feel each day I still feel pregnant is a milestone.
Size of Baby: lentil bean
What I’m nervous about: selfishly for myself - the thought of feeling this way (or heaven forbid worse!) for several more weeks.

We are here and Mike was right. Everything is much better :)
The weather is great. We were able to spend some time yesterday meeting our newish niece.
We headed to Palm Springs this morning and it's beyond beautiful!! The resort , from the little I've seen, is gorgeous. Can't wait to see more of it.
Colin is doing wonderfully and has been quite a trooper. All of a sudden he has become such a big boy. He is really enjoying everything and is just making the trip even more enjoyable for Mike and I.
More later. Off to enjoy the sunshine.

Weekly update!
How far along?: Somewhere in the 5 week range.
Weight gain/loss: Unknown but I'm pretty sure it will increase with eating out everyday on this trip
Symptoms: nauseous is starting to set in. trying to remember to eat smaller meals or snacks more frequently but it isn't totally helping
Gender: way too early to tell
Sleep?: terrible despite being tired. missing my bed with my pillows
Best moment this week?: taking this lil peanut to California!
Movement: again too early to tell
Food cravings/aversions: nothing yet although sometimes the smell of food is enough to turn me off from eating
What I miss?: my normal sense of smell :)
What I am looking forward to?: my Dr's appointment on the 29th. I just want to see that everything is ok!
Milestones:
Size of baby: about the size of a sesame seed!
What I’m nervous about: taking good enough care of this baby. nervous about all the medicine I've been taking for my tooth, not being able to sleep enough, eating out so much, carrying Colin, etc.

I haven't forgot about you old friend, just life has been busy. I got phase 1 of my root canal done on Wednesday and I haven't been the same since. I've been in an immense amount of pain and consequently haven't been sleeping well which is leaving me tired and just with an overall feeling of "blah." Mix in a couple past few days filled with days at work (when was my last day off?!?!) and evenings filled with plans. We leave for California tomorrow and despite all my good intentions, I have a kabillion things to do before we go. I had phase 2 of my root canal (implanting the post with temporary seal) done today and I'm sitting here at work holding my jaw wishing I should start taking the Vicodin now but holding off knowing I need to go on sales calls shortly.
Mike keeps reminding me that everything will be better Thursday morning when we are in warm sunny California and while I know that to be somewhat true, I have ALOT to do before then.
So sorry to those who keep asking for Colin's Halloween pictures or some un-responded emails. I will get to you eventually. Maybe I'll have time when things "get better" on Thursday when I'm hopped up on Vicodin and the Zpack :)
