Time Flies

I can't believe it has been a month since I updated. And here I was thinking I was being great and updating every week. Whoops.

This is officially the pregnancy from hell. Ok, ok, ok, I haven't had to go the the ER for bleeding or rehydration, no abnormal tests, blah blah blah. FOR ME THIS HAS BEEN THE PREGNANCY FROM HELL!! I am sitting on 15 weeks and still feel ill. Thankfully, the constant icky hungover feeling is gone, but the random gagging still abounds. Lovely. And the gassiness...comes to visit often enough for me to want to lock the door. I love the fact that no one reads this; I don't worry that someone is grossed out by what I have to say!

So, yeah, 15 weeks, down 12 pounds (well, I think 16 total, but 12 since I have been seeing the doc) and my next appt is next Friday. We go in April 20th for the ultrasound and am hoping that all is well and we can find out what we are having!! Might have to drink a jog of OJ for insurance. I haven't really felt the baby move, or nothing definitive yet. Due to the gassiness, I am reluctant to declare anything as baby at this point. Also, I have been taking a unisom everynight for a few months now and am sorta worried about that. I know it is safe and all....but still. Ultrasound will make me feel better.

I also wanted to update a bit on Charlie. His words, actually. He is a talking genius! On his list are:

Wheel
Car ("CA" is heard many times a day)
Vrrooom (for car, does that count?)
Wheeeee (ok, does that count? it is SO cute)
Juice
More
Eat
Eye
Hair
Nose
Mouth
Ear
Cheek
Sadie
Shoe
Sock (harder to distinguish)
Grandma
Grandpa
Granny
Geido
Elmo (he may say other characters, but I am not sure at this point)
Bath
Strawberry
Banana
Apple (OH SO CUTE, aaa-pause-pull....he is so funny!)

I know there are more, but it is hard to keep track!
