Forgive My Absence

I really do want to blog...but I never feel up to it. The "morning sickness" I am experiencing this time around lasts all day long. No, I'm not nauseous, I'm not throwing up....but I still feel miserable. The hungrier I get the worse I feel; but I know that no food will make me feel better, so what is the point of eating. Even though I don't feel nauseated, I feel that if I move, I may just throw up anyway. This does not make taking care of the boys easy...but what choice do I have. Nick is an amazing man; he takes such good care of me. Even after working at the office all day, he comes home and takes over the care of the boys and house so I can rest miserably.

There is much I could say; for example, Joey is now sleeping in his own bed in his own room. Last night was the first fully successful night! I am very pleased. Hopefully the new trend has started. Baby Nick now likes to be laid down on his back instead of his tummy (although he flips himself over fairly quickly) but the problem with laying him down on his back, is that he likes to stick his feet up in the air making it impossible to cover him up! The little stinker.

Joey is very excited about a new baby. He has asked me several times, "Are you bigger yet?" Well, I know it may be hard to tell, but I assure him that he will be able to see a difference when the baby starts growing bigger. He has also asked if we are having two babies (he saw a show on t.v. where twins were born)...I said, "God have mercy, no." He also wants to open me up to see the baby! I told him that we shouldn't have to "open" me up, God willing, and we couldn't see the baby until God said it was time for the baby to be born. Then he asked me if I was going to squeeze at the doctor's office. That one took me by complete surprise!! I have no idea where that came from! But he takes good care of me, especially when Daddy is at work.

Well, I think I have sat up as long as I can stand right now. I think I will go lay back down and pray I don't get sick. Hopefully, this phase will pass in the next couple weeks and I will feel more like myself again.
