8 weeks

I have been so so so sick. I have never been like this in my life. I can’t eat anything and everything sounds horrible. Making/getting food for the girls is so hard. John knew how bad it was when I turned down a Starbucks. I’ve lost 4 lbs in a week. Crazy. Today I woke up so much better though. I’ve been able to eat and even had a little bit of coffee. It was so good. I so hope I’m over the worst of it. Everything else has been pretty okay. I have my really tired days but as long as I’m not sick and tired I can function. This is way harder though having 2 little ones to take care of this time around. Yesterday John had to leave to go out of town and I really didn’t think I was going to make it. My saving grace was a soft pretzel and a fountain cherry coke from Target. As I was trying to gather the girls up to go to Target I realized I had not seen my car keys since John had them on Friday. For 30 minutes I searched the house looking for them. In my panic of possibly not having a car for the next 24 hours, Camille took a full-unopened bottle of BBQ sauce from the pantry and broke it. BBQ sauce was everywhere including Av’s coat and she was very unhappy about this. Every pregnancy I have had BBQ sauce is the one thing that turns my stomach the entire time (we are big BBQ restaurant fans too) so this was especially torturous. I managed to get it all cleaned up and then was partly glad the BBQ sauce was out of my house for the rest of my pregnancy.
