So first of all, I am 2 days away from saying I'm 22 weeks and you still can't really tell by looking, I mean sure, you can see maybe I've gained like 8 pounds but I dont look pregnant. I think at this point I would rather look more pregnant. It's coming though, Im sure I'll explode!! (promise when I do I will take pictures, but I'd rather remember looking pregnant than chubby.)
Just last month Christian and I celebrated 2 years together :) We went and saw Harry Potter, which we loved!! But I was still feeling sick so that is really all we did, which is fine, a night out with him is all I need to remind me why we got married.
It's really hard to explain how grateful I am for him. Ever since I started getting "morning" sickness he really took care of my every need. I work full time and he was going to school. So I would wake up and get "sick" then go to work where I got "sick" a few times more, then most nights come home and cry, lay on the bathroom floor while he gave me a pillow or blanket... or brought me a potato or some crackers. When I walked in he always gave me a hug and I would see the dishes done, the laundry done, the house clean and he was ready to do anything I needed. Seriously I survived because of him! I'm sure he felt my pain and did all he could to make me feel better.
I still feel kind of bad, because every weekend we stayed home, I couldn't (can't still sometimes) eat or smell any meat, it was THE WORST!! we ate potatoes and cereal and oatmeal for a few months. and he never complained! not one time!! I want to pay him back but I know there is no way I could show how grateful I am!! Honestly, he is the best for me :)
I am so grateful!!! I now almost never feel sick! It is so wonderful!!!! Honestly I am SO grateful for that. Tonight we are going to a work party for Christian and then the forgotten carols. I cannot say how excited I am!! A night out with Christian!! out to eat and then an amazing program I love!!!
Oh yeah I can't fail to mention, my title is obviously about our sweet baby! It is kicking like crazy!! I cannot wait until Wednesday, when I can say He or She is kicking! Christian has felt it and he LOVED it!! I cannot wait to have our baby!! It's going to be so amazing and Christian is going to be the best daddy I can tell!!
anyways, to sum up this post: I love Christian more each day, I am so grateful for him!! We can't wait for our date tonight to actually go out again!! AND Wednesday we find out what our baby is and we can really buckle down with the nursery/names and just plain can't wait to see our little one in our arms in April :) I am so blessed it's hard express. (especially without crying!!haha)
