Sick of being Sick

Well, I had my official first pregnancy "meltdown" on Saturday. I just sat on the couch and cried. I was so tired of feeling nauseated all the time. I am either hungry, which makes me nauseated, or I eat something which makes me nauseated. I know or I hope that this will go away after the first trimester, but I am still so tired of feeling rotten. And when I feel rotten, everyone around me feels rotten. I have not been so easy to live with. I have been very short tempered and just plain nasty to my sweet husband. What is that saying, you hurt those you love the most? Alan is definitely getting the brunt of my bad moods. But he is taking it all in stride. I don't know if it is all in my head, but I do think that I am feeling the baby every now and then. I absolutely love that feeling. Despite all the sickness, I really love being pregnant. And I love those pregnancy books that show you what the baby looks like each week. I definitely work in the best place to be pregnant. You will not get as much sympathy and advice than you do at a child development center. I am surrounded by parents all day long. And I am very fortunate to be able to call some of the parents friends as well. The majority of the staff are parents too, so they are very supportive as well. Okay, I am feeling much better about being pregnant now!
Hunter read his first book last week. The Foot Book by Dr. Suess. He was so proud of himself! I love seeing the kids accomplish something new. Especially when they are pleased just with the accomplishment, instead of what they "get" from doing something.
Taylor has his pool party for his birthday on Saturday, so I am sure I will have lots of pictures to share.
