Feelin' great...

Since my last post I've discovered that freshly squeezed lemon juice in my ice cold water is the miracle cure for my morning/all day sickness. Thank the Lord!!! The headaches have finally subsided and I haven't had a nosebleed in several days. YAY!!

8 Weeks
I can't believe we finally made it to week 8! It seems like so long ago that we got our BFP. This week is a special week because we get to have our first ultrasound done. When we had our first ultrasound with Ethan I was only 7 weeks along he just looked like a "tube" with a heartbeat. He wasn't moving around yet and his arms and legs had barely 'budded' so he literally just looked like a peanut on the screen. This time around I will be 8 weeks and 4 days so we should be able to see lil' baby boo moving too. :)

Not a whole lot has been going on around here. Last Friday we went on our first one-on-one date in almost 2 years (minus a double date we went on last year). We had a great time but it was still hard leaving Ethan behind, especially when he loves baseball so much (we went to a minor league Triple A Cardinals baseball game). We decided next time we go we will get 'lawn tickets' and take him with us. I think he will love it and I personally will probably be more comfortable on the ground rather then sitting straight up in close quarters in the seats.

We don't miss 'going out'. We were home bodies before we became parents so we don't mind just hanging out at home. Plus, we are both firm believers in the fact that we decided to 'have a family' so we can do things 'as a family'. So we don't mind finding activities to do that is fun for all of us. We understand that we need 'mommy and daddy' time but we mostly spend the time away from Ethan, just talking about him. :)

Since we are so blessed with family that just loves to spend time with Ethan, we already have another date night planned for Friday. Should be a week of good times.
