Today was a really fun day, but it didn't start out so fun for me.
I woke up this morning and felt more dizzy and more nauseous than I have so far. My son decided to wake up at 6:30am rather than 7:30am and while he ate his breakfast, I tried to clean up the house. Bending over to sweep up the copious amounts of dog hair was really tough on the dizziness. I drank some orange juice and that really didn't help with the nausea. Finally, I drank some lemonade and had some saltines and that seemed to help.
My parents arrived around 9:45am. We chatted for a moment and then wanted to go ahead and get on the road (to pick up our new car :) I told them that I wanted to get a picture with them and my son before he dirtied his outfit.
I took one picture like I always do.
On the second picture, I said, "Ok, on the count of 3, everyone say (son's name) is going to be a big brother!!"
They of course both started smiling and before I could get a true reaction shot, my dad had run over to give me a hug. I heard my mom say, (Gasp)"Are you pregnant?"
I didn't even have a chance to say yes because I was reaching over my dad and shooting the camera...just hoping for a good picture.
I got a few good ones, but then I made them go back and give me a "fake" reaction. That picture is so funny! I can't wait to share.
My parents are the first family members to know and it looks like we may tell my husband's mom and her husband some time this week.
I'm excited but nervous.
After we did a lot of running around today, I came home and crashed. I crashed even more after my parents left. Once my son goes to bed, I may become comatose.
I hope that I can keep this nausea at bay! Wish me luck :)
