Weekend Report
The last few days have kind of been a blur. I went from feeling really good to pretty crappy in seemingly seconds. I am not really sure why, but will be glad when I can go a week without feeling pukey. Mind you, I am NOT complaining! I’m so relieved that I actually have full 24 hour periods of goodness that it is more like a hopeful goal then a complaint. I have been sleeping a lot. I’ve read that the exhaustion normally hits in the beginning, but I was too busy praying to the porcelain gods. I’ve had a couple of days now of uncontrollable sleepiness. I feel narcoleptic.
Tomorrow (Thursday) I am looking forward to joining Stacy and her adorable Gavin and Lauren for a day at the Sacramento Zoo. I’ve never been and the weather will be nice. I’m looking forward to getting out and getting my mind pleasantly distracted.
Friday is a day of doctor appointments. First is my 16 week check up at 1:30pm. We will get to hear the heart beat and other then that I’m not really sure what they can tell just by looking at me. Unfortunately, there will be no sonogram. I am bummed mostly because being able to SEE that all is well is a huge comfort to me. I like counting arms, legs, toes and fingers. I like seeing the heart beat and knowing at least everything visually is gestating as planned. We will get to schedule a sonogram at this appointment though, so hopefully within the next few weeks we’ll get to see our little monster and find out if it’s a he or she! Then Nathan has an appointment at 3pm and then we both have a chiropractor appointment at 5:30pm. And let’s not forget that game 7 of the Stanley Cup is tomorrow night! Go Penguins!!! (They probably won’t win the cup, but I have to go down with my ship. LOL)
Saturday will be a day with Nathan’s parents at a local draft horse show. When I say local I mean less then 5 miles away. It’s the first big horse show at a ranch you can see in our back field so it should be fun and interesting. We’ve nicknamed it the “Million Dollar Ranch” even though it is more like a 7 million dollar facility. I’m looking forward to looking around and being jealous.
Sunday we will be doing yard work and getting ready for a storage container to be delivered (hopefully) next weekend. With the arrival of the container we will be able to start rearranging the house and getting a nursery ready! It’s so exciting.
Well, I’ve been up for a few hours now, so it is time for me to get some sleep. LOL. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! ~Hugs~

I had such a good time with you today! Thank you! :) I know that narcoleptic feeling. I had it really bad with Gavin. I would come home from work and pass out for 2 hours, get up, make dinner and then go back to bed again (Mark missed the first trimester with Gavin...he was in Mississippi for tech school). I also understand the anxiety. I didn't feel completely at ease until I saw for myself that he was having a grand ol' time in there. It was different with Lauren because it was an easier pregnancy and because I had already gone through it before. They'll probably listen for the heartbeat and then they may measure your tummy (well, below the tummy). I can't remember if they start it that early (I think they do). They'll literally measure it with a measuring tape. Just to make sure that you're measuring where you should be (I still don't get it, but whatev). :) Just hang in there. It'll all come up before you know it! :) HUGS!
