Sounds like I'm in a Pepto Bismal commercial! Well, luckily I'm getting to the end of the nausea part although I have to say that I just had the most expensive toilet session yet. For all you expectant mothers, be careful not to go out to eat until AFTER you have finished with morning sickness. Aaron and I went to Applebee's tonight on a whim and I had eaten a little something to tide me over until dinner. Unfortunately I should have realized it wasn't going to be a good ending when my pre-dinner snack was starting to be a nuasea culprit. I talked myself down thinking it would go away once I got something else in my tummy. Nope, I should have made it come up before we went, then I would have at least kept dinner down. Oh-well, there's always the little I brought home to make up for what I lost.
In my internship I went to the NICU and saw the little baby's there. Oh, they were so small and precious! It just made me that much more excited to see what our little baby would be like and to hold it and snuggle it. I'm so excited to be a mom even though I still think, "when I have this baby, what in the world will I do with it." Needless to say, I'm having a hard time picturing me getting up at all hours of the night to be a mom and being that person. Hopefully I don't mess up. Oh it's nerve racking and exciting at the same time.
Poor Aaron, I guess it's a good thing I'm starting to feel like cooking again. He's been suffering from allergies and they've been keeping him up a lot of the night. It's a good thing he's on spring break too. It's also too bad that he just looks so cute when he's sick. I just want to cuddle with him, and he just wants to cuddle the air filter! Well, time is flying by quickly and before I know it my internship will be finishing up, I hope I can make up for all the homework I put off because I felt too ill to want to do anything. It'll definitely keep me busy until the end. Then sweet release from school but business of moving, traveling, visiting and then we'll see how we settle down in California and finally being able to focus on our upcoming angel instead of having school trying to over shadow it.
...and We're Back!

When are you guys leaving for CA? If we can swing it, we'd still like to come down and see you before you leave!
Sorry you're feeling so sick. It will get better!! And you'll be surprised at how natural the mothering instinct is in women. You will be a wonderful mother, Carrie.
You're almost passed the nausea, and then eat what you will. And whatever, you will be the best mom ever! You shouldn't even think about worrying!
I still keep the Tums close at hand, especially at nights. Fun stuff.
I still feel like I fall short with the mother thing in some aspects and just have to wing it when I have no idea what I am doing. It is just a huge learning process and a great blessing to be a mom.
love ya-hope you are past the nausea.
