Belly Picture #1
Well... here it is, what you've all been waiting for....
Belly Picture #1
For the most part I have been feeling pretty good. The unbearable hunger has gotten a lot better. Now, that's not to say I don't eat a lot. But it's no longer paralyzing. I've been getting heartburn in the evenings, but that's been cured with some Tums and eating dinner earlier. I'm tired a lot, but it's manageable with naps to school, on the way from school, and then again once I'm home. All in all, I know I've been lucky so far. My first doctor appointment is next Friday. Details on that later!
Another change in events has been the start of school. We are ending the third week already. So far, I think this will be a pretty good group. I had 8 of the 18 kids last year. The familiarity has been nice. There are a few that will test my patience, but that's reality.

And baby makes three!
Yep... you read that right! And now that all the necessary family members have been told the news, I can finally post it! Jason and I are going to be parents!!! We officially found out on July 26th. Jason was just as excited as I was. Right now it looks as though I'll be due around the end of March. My first doctor appointment isn't until September 7th. My doctor doesn't see new OB patients until they are 10-12 weeks. I'll be most of the way through the first trimester by then!
So far the only pregnancy "symptoms" I have experienced are going to the bathroom often and being hungry EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF THE DAY! Now, I know what you are thinking. "That's okay, now you have an excuse to eat anything you want." Which would be fine with me... but the problem is, nothing sounds good. I'm always so hungry that my stomach hurts to the point that the thought of food makes me feel sick. And I am really hungry every minute of the day. I was up at 4am this morning eating crackers because I couldn't sleep I was so hungry. I hope I get to enjoy this soon... I am so excited about being a mommy!!!!!
