Ugh...I am just a miserable brat today! That is the only way to explain it. Things are just annoying me. Things people say- how they have to "one up" someone else. I don't know why it is just bugging me today!

Anyway, two more days until I leave for Texas! I am super excited. It is supposed to be in the low 80s all weekend- a complete change from the cold weather here! And I've been told the bluebonnets are in bloom! I can't wait to see them.

Nicholas has been so silly lately. His new favorite movie is Cars. He asks to watch it about 5 times a day. (And no, we DO NOT watch it 5 times a day!) He makes sound effects to go along with the movie. Very cute. Oh, and for this one Curious George episode he just laughs and laughs...he thinks it is just SO funny! I love watching his little personality blossom!

Well, I haven't updated lately. I'm still suffering from all-day sickness. It had been strictly nausea until today. Today I actually got sick. I hate getting sick. I get so miserable. I'm hoping once the second trimester hits this will subside- I don't think I can take it much longer.

Nicholas will now say baby all the time. He points out babies wherever he sees them, and will blow raspberries on my belly, but I don't think he really has a clue. Maybe once I start showing.

And no...I'm not showing yet. I've actually lost weight with being so sick. When I was pregnant with Nicholas I was in maternity pants around 10 weeks. Well, I hit 10 weeks this Friday, and I'm still fitting quite comfortably in my regular clothes. It works for me though!

Next weekend I'm taking a mini-vacation to Texas. I'll be flying into Dallas and staying with my friend Kelly, and then we'll be driving down to Houston. We're meeting up with a bunch of other chicas from our loop. It should be a good time. Pray that I feel better by then- I need to enjoy all the wonderful grub that Texas has to offer!

So, yesterday was my first appointment. Not with the doctor, just the nurse to get all my background information. Since my old practice split I had to give them all my information. They're still trying to get my old records. Anyway, it was a fairly uneventful appointment. Took my blood pressure (it was normal, which I was THRILLED about, since I've had high blood pressue- so this was good!) and that's about it. Didn't even weigh me (not that I'm complaining!) I go back in 4 weeks and actually meet with the doctor. I have to go for my blood work (BLECH) and that's about it.

Morning sickness (aka- ALL DAY sickness) has decided to grace me this time around. I've been nauseated practically all day long for over two weeks now. A complete change from when I was pregnant with Nicholas. A few people have already said it must be a girl, but I don't think that it is a guarantee. And we don't plan on finding out the sex again- we liked the surprise. :)
