We Love Being a Family of Four


But why not add one more?!


 
That's right! We're pregnant with Baby #3!
 
After a couple days of feeling a little queasy I woke up early on Friday, January 28th
 to find out I was pregnant! 
We can't believe how fast & "easy" it has been this time around getting pregnant.
 
Knowing that we were having a big family dinner @ Josh's parent's house on Sunday we kept it a secret from family that would be attending, but I called his sister's that 1st day to let them in on the secret.
 On Sunday, January 30th, @ the family dinner Josh let everyone in on our big news.

We tried to keep it only to family & close friends until we heard the little heartbeat on Friday, February 11th.
I'm now officially 9 weeks!
My due date is September 26th.
So far I've been having "morning sickness" all day, which only gets worse at night.  I've only actually gotten sick once....mostly just dry heaving. FUN!
Of course I also got the flu while dealing with my morning sickness. 
I feel like there are more things that I don't want than really want.  Fruits are on my like list right now & as much as I normally love dairy (especially my morning bowl of cereal) right now it is on my no list. 
So we'll wait & see how this all goes. 
I don't completely feel like I'm showing, but am feeling bloated/ a little chunky.
I'm really hopeing that this "morning sickness" goes away after the 1st trimester.

I've been especially thankful for my husband who has stepped up
(& he does a lot more than most husbands as it is)
to help me while I have been so sick & not myself.
Without him I don't know if I could make it. 
Also, a big shoutout to his coworker, Jeanette, who when finding out that I was pregnant & sick made our family dinner twice in a week without even being asked.  It helped out so much & it was greatly appreciated!
