a whole week!

Can you believe an entire week has gone by since I last posted? Does anyone even miss me?

Work has been crazy, I’ve been sick (as usual), and, like many of you, I’ve been overwhelmed with Christmas fun and frenzy.

A quick update on life… I am 14 weeks pregnant today. I’m so happy to be at week 14, but I was seriously hoping that I’d wake up this morning and feel 100% better. It hasn’t happened yet. Maybe at 15 weeks things will get better. I sure hope so because my family is driving all the way from Dallas to be with us for at least a week and I want to feel top notch. If I don’t feel great it’ll be just fine because I can’t think of anyone I’d rather be sick around than my mom. I think every girl on here would agree.

I’m not showing yet. I actually weighed less this morning than I’ve weighed in months– thanks to all the throwing up I’ve been doing, I’m sure. I feel a tightness in my lower belly and I know it’s the little baby in there, but no one knows I’m pregnant just from looking at me. I’m definitely not glowing either. I look like a 15 year old. I weigh what I weighed when I was a teenager and my face looks like it did when I was a teenager. NOTE: All of this whining doesn’t mean that I’m ungrateful for the exciting things that are happening right now. I’m just venting and being honest.

I’m about to finish addressing our Christmas cards that the lovely Nina designed and had printed for us. I’ll post the final card after we mail them out, but this is the little “mock up” version that doesn’t include our real names that Nina so sweetly made for blog purposes only.

Isn’t it adorable? And the real version is even cuter!

    You know I miss you!

    Hope you start feeling better soon and I so agree…there’s nobody I’d rather be with when I’m sick than with my mom. She always knows just want to do to make me feel better!

    Hope you have a great weekend and I love your Christmas card 🙂

    Great card! I like how you’re on the same side in all of the pics! I realized that I do that in 80% of my photos w/ my Hubby as well.

    Yes you were definitely missed and I’m glad you’re back. The card is lovely and Nina did an excellent job!

    You will feel better regardless by just having mom there 🙂 And your card is darling. Nina is the BEST!!! She made calling cards for my PD and BDiL – Christmas present from me. Hope you feel better soon!!

    Cute card! And does anyone show at 14 weeks? I wouldn’t know but I’m sure you’ll start looking the part soon, and then pics are a must:)

  6. Katrina says

    Ah, I so sympathize with you! I am only 8 weeks, but have been sick for about 2 1/2 weeks now. It stinks! I hope it goes away soon for you! Love the Christmas cards!

  7. Tracy's Porch says

    Your card is adorable!

    I remember being pregnant with Ashley and waiting for that magical week 14 to feel better but it took a couple weeks longer. Don’t worry: it will come and you will feel really great for awhile!

    I remember what you looked like at 15!!!

    Your card looks adorable, and I’m glad your back 🙂 I hope you get over this nausea/throwing-up thing soon!

  9. Ruby Slippers says

    I noticed you hadn’t been around, definitely! I hope you feel better soon – if I ever decide to get pregnant, nausea is the thing I look forward to least. Blech.

    You card is too cute. Hopefully you start feeling better asap – it’s gotta pass at some point, right? And it’s all worth it in the end!

    Of course you were missed! But I feel you with the “just not enough time” thing. Anyway, I hope you feel better soon. And, of course, your card is adorable!

  13. Mrs. Stilettos says

    I sure did miss you! I was honestly worried when we hadn’t heard from you this week! BUT, we totally understand that you aren’t feeling top notch lately. We just want you to rest and enjoy what you can of these early pregnancy weeks! I’m sure the yuckiness will pass soon. Your almost half way there!

  14. Vineyard Vogue says

    I love the Christmas card! And, just think, this time next year you’ll have a little baby on the card with you two! 🙂

    Hope you start feeling better soon!

    That is a really cute card! Good idea changing the name for the blog. I need to get on that.

    PS Love your entire blog and I wish you nothing but a happy and healthy pregnancy! 🙂

  16. LyndsAU says

    I love the card, very similar to what I came up with for ours, I just don’t have our main pic for it yet! I’m so behind!

    I am so sorry you aren’t feeling any better yet! If it’s anything like mine, i just woke up one day and felt 100% better! Congrats on hitting the 14 week mark! I pushed my appt back to the 23rd, I’ll be pushing it to find out, but I still want to give it a shot! 🙂

  18. Suzette says

    Oh yeah, I know you aren’t complaining, but it helps me to know that I’m not the only pregnant lady walking around looking like a teenager with my face breaking out like crazy! IF you figure out the trick, please let me know! I am willing to try just about anything on my face!! 🙂

  19. Krista says

    The card is adorable and you two look so cute together!

    As a bride-to-be after my fiance recently proposed to me with a gorgeous diamond engagement ring from http://www.idonowidont.com we need a cute card design like yours to announce our engagement!

    I may have to contact Nina to make something for us, thanks!

    I always love receiving “photo” cards from friends and family at Christmas, but so often there is just one pic that is staged with all wearing various shades of the same color. I LOVE this idea of moments from throughout the year and just letting the card be the Christmasy part. Great design too.

    Fun site. Feel better soon!
