We found out on April Fool's Day and the wonderful morning sickness and tiredness practically slammed into me that same week. Of course we already had a three week vacation with lots of traveling planned before this and were committed to. I'm glad we got to visit with so much family and share our news face-to-face since its kinda difficult to do so living so far, but I gotta admit it was a little tough--especially as the trip wore on.
My mom ended up purchasing some last-minute tickets to fly home with me to help me out, take care of me and SweetPea, and stock up my freezer since my love is away from home for a spell and I can't handle the kitchen duties. My mom was awesome and whether its because I'm heading into the second trimester, or because I'm home and not traveling and my mom did so much for me, or more likely a combo of the two, I'm hopeful that I'm heading down the better feeling path.
Seriously though, this has been one rough trimester...so much more so than it was with SweetPea. Please, don't get me wrong, I'm so incredibly appreciative for this opportunity to mother another sweet babe and feel completely blessed...its just been super tough on me.
So this was the first time I pulled out the camera since coming home nearly 10 days ago. SweetPea was stoked and asked if she could take a picture of Amma (my mom) and me. I gotta say, not a bad composition for a nearly 3 1/2 year old. This kid LOVES to take pictures...wonder if its just in the blood.
