  • Morning, Afternoon, Nighttime Sickness............................CHECK!!!!
  • The one and ONLY time in my life that I can't fathom CHOCOLATE..........CHECK!
  • Very Keen sense of smell........CHECK!
  • Gag here, dry heave there...........CHECK!
  • Eating is a chore vs. pleasure, constant eating and nothing sounds good.........CHECK!
  • Not one, but SIX pregnancy tests were positive (I couldn't believe I was actually pregnant, but believed it after five days and 6 tests!)....................CHECK!
  • We heard the amazing heart beat and saw our little wiggler with our own eyes (thank you modern day technology).............CHECK!!!!!
  • Trav and I are both grinning ear to ear and are as HAPPY and EXCITED as little kids in a candy shop............CHECK!!!!!
  • We found out in San Antonio, explanation below................................
*Trav: (saw the test I left on the side of the tub in San Antonio) Oh, you took a pregnancy test without me?
*Me: Yes, but not without you....I left it right there.
*Trav: Hey, what does two lines mean?
*Me: (rummaging frantically through the garbage can) where is that darn box?!?!
*Trav: smiling big, I think you're pregnant.....
*Me: No way, for real, what, really, oh my goodness.....smile.....in shock.......
  • This is us with the 6th and final test! By this time, I finally believed it was true!!!!
YES SIREE--we are stoked to announce that I am pregnant! We always said we wanted to get Trav through Law School and then have a baby. Well, it just so happens that our baby is due the day of graduation-May 14th. Wow, I guess we hit that nail right on the head. We are so happy for this blessing in our lives and CANNOT wait to be parents-wahoooooooo!

Nothin' but fun with the visitors.............

What can I say other than two of our FAVORITE people are coming out to Lubbock to visit. Yes siree, tonight come 5:40 I will be picking this lovely couple up at the airport! We can't wait to see them. It's nothing less than a party when my parents are in town, however, do y'all have any suggestions on how to entertain in this groggy weather.............I mean, Lubbock is so happening right?!?!

DO NOT DO IT!!!!

I got a flu shot 10 days ago and have been as SICK as a dog ever since!!!! All I'm saying is reconsider your decision. To be objective, however, I am an extremely small adult and they stuck me with the same amount of venomous so-called 'dead' flu viruses as they would a 300 pound porker. They should assess the situation and give me the children's shot.....why didn't I think of that...probably because I shouldn't have to?!?! For all it's worth, I will never pay $25 plus much more spent on medication and Dr. visits to date to get deathly ill again. I'm on the mend thanks to a huge shot in my left butt cheek and horse sized antibiotic pills and hope and pray to continue to get well soon.
