I need a hair-cut....bad

Before I forget and start a new post I wanted to mention that on Monday we actually had to crawl into our storm shelter for the first time. *Gasp* I thought I would feel really safe in their but to be honest I didn't. There is something about putting your whole family under ground with only 8 inches of cement between you and a possible tornado. I think I may clean out our closet under the stairs for next time.

We were fine as the quick 10 minute little hail storm pounded overhead and returned to bed at 11:30pm after only 20 minutes of that nonsense.

Back to business.....

This week has been up and down. Just when I think I may be on the way to feeling 'normal' again, I puke in my hand, all over the bathroom rug AND on my Birkenstocks. *Sigh* I think I have officially passed the vomit point I was at with Piper. I read in an old blog at ten weeks was when the main throw up stopped and then I had a freak up-chuck at 13 weeks. 

Today marks 11 weeks and to be honest I can't even believe it has been this long already. When I was pregnant with Piper I thought numerous times about never wanting to be pregnant again. I haven't hit that point yet this time but I imagine if I don't get some relief in the next couple of weeks I may be rethinking that concept.

I hate to be so dramatic about the whole thing but really I just want to flash forward to the point when I love to be pregnant, which according to my calculations should be in a couple of weeks. There is always the thought in the back of my head that this could go on for the next 6.5 months, then what would I do?

Seriously, what the heck would I do? 

Yesterday on our way to clean the church we stopped on the side of the road for some pictures. Click here to see those shots. I was terrified we would come across a snake in those tall grasses. Thankfully we didn't, probably because Nate is a snake whisperer and told them all to flee before we got there. LOL
And because my blogs lately are similar to an essay that is all over the place and makes no sense I'm just going to jump into a completely different topic that has nothing to do with snakes and everything to do with my budding artist. Look what Piper drew this morning. It's a baby. She is awesome!

I wish I would have kept a blog/diary of Logans pregnancy. My pregnancy was very easy compared to yours but I do remember being extremely depressed (prob cuz I gained around 85 lbs. lol) Reading about your experience -even back with piper- makes me so excited to be pregnant again. Obviously past the nausea point. My doctor always reminded me that pregnancy is temporary lol but honestly I never could get that concept. The bad days seemed to drag on, but the good days-when you feel them move inside you- made up for everything! oh and btw, thats really awesome about piper drawing that! Logan just started drawing smiley faces which he claims are everything from a cow to me. Very flattering. And you know I can always help with the hair situation LOL!
