It just seems to be sticking around

I just can’t seem to shake this morning sickness. The first two days back to work were ok but today was rough. Something I ate did not agree with me and I spent the whole afternoon in and out of the bathroom. I am hoping to get a good nights sleep and maybe sleep in a bit tomorrow. I still have a TON to do in my classroom before school starts so I should get up early but I probably won’t.  Well, keep thinking good thoughts and hopefully Kasidee (spelling isn’t know yet) will settle in soon and stop making me so sick.

Damn morning sickness

Why would anyone willingly have another child after being this sick! I am miserable, nauseouss, vomiting, and because of all of that I am also CRYING. The thing that helped me get over nausea to begin with I now can’t stand the smell of. I have a horrible feeling that this is going to last all 9 months because I can not have estrogen in my body and for 9 months it will be pouring! I am SO TIRED OF THIS!!

Choosing a name

Choosing a name for a baby is hilarious. We have come up with some form of the name Cassydee for a girl, but for a boy we have been coming up with some doozeys. Tom suggested Remington, Winchester, Steele, Vincent Price, Bubba, and all sorts of funny names. I am open to any suggestions anyone has for boy names!

Not like I imagined

Since our baby was not planned we were both in shock for quite some time. I was five days late and was convinced “that time of the month” would eventually be here. I am not even quite sure why I bought the test. I was just thinking it was supposed to be done when your cycle was late. I took it and was not expecting two lines!! I took it, left it on the counter, came down and started dinner. I then went back up to check it, saw the two lines, checked the directions again and then said, “Ummmm, Tom?” I took the test to him and he read the directions the same way I did. Immediately he went to the store and bought another test in a  different brand. He got home and I took that test. As we closed the bathroom door and watched the clock for three minutes we didn’t say much. The longest three minutes of my life went by and this test was a pink +.

At this point I had always pictured my husband smiling, hugging me, and saying something along the lines of being a daddy. Oh that did not happen! He actually didn’t say much to me for about an hour. We were both shocked because it was not planned and I was going to begin birth control after this cycle and we were not given that chance.

The next day we went to the doctor together where we took another test and were guaranteed we were having a baby. After we left is when we started the phone calls. We both have come to the realization we are going to be parents and things are well now. I am convinced both of our reactions were purely from shock!

The motorcycle is up for sale (it was totally Tom’s idea) and we are trying to figure out what the heck we are going to do in March-June during the school year. We have plenty of time to figure all that out and right now we are just talking names
