just a baby update!

Sorry - no pictures. Just wanted to check in with a baby update. I had one of those super quick "sit-in-the-waiting-room-longer-than-you-see-the-dr" visits on Monday. The heartbeat sounded great, and everything was fine! Not too much to report. But rather than make this poor blog sit another day with nothing new, I thought I could at least tell you SOMETHING!!!

I started drinking milk again this week. . .for the first time since around Christmas, so THAT is a pretty good accomplishment, which must mean that I am making SOME sort of progress in the "I-feel-like-crud" department!! I did actually make it to the outlet mall for an afternoon of shopping with Debbie and Lizzie on Sunday. It was REALLY nice to be out of the house for a while! I got a few cute maternity clothes, to add to my stash, and some cute new clothes for Bryce (like a "Big Brother" tshirt from Carters! So cute!)

Annamaria has been coming over to help me clean and organize and keep things running around here, which has been TOTALLY and completely priceless. I am SO thankful!!!! Yesterday we went through all of the maternity clothes (thank you Joy!) It's like a trip down memory lane, because there are clothes there from Annamaria, Joy, and I, plus a few other people. So we spent a lot of time saying "Oh, I remember this! You wore this to such-and-such!" Or, "Ohhh, that was my FAVORITE shirt, it's SO comfy!" or. .. ."Ewww. That was the worst article of maternity clothing EVER. Get rid of it!" It seems that maternity clothes are either REALLY fabulous and comfy, or REALLY hideous and unwearable. There IS no in-between.

OKAY, we have GOT to get to the grocery this morning, because I am out of cinnamon-raisin bagels and applesauce. . .two of my staple foods for the past two weeks. (Bryce LOVES them both too.) Have a great day!!!!! XOXO
