What I've been up to...

Well, I've been the worst blogger lately. A lot has to due with the fact that most days if I don't have to go to work I am struggling to keep up with normal day to day stuff, like cooking dinner, cleaning, making sure my cats have food, etc..... Thankfully I have am amazing husband who not only works like crazy all the time but is so willing to help me, when I'm nauseated or just so tired all I can do is sleep, with out complaining at all!!
I never realised how exhausting it is to grow babies inside!! Sometimes I wake up with a full nights sleep and can barely get out of bed. I've felt so sick lately, I've actually lost quite a bit of weight.
I honestly don't know how women get pregnant over and over again if they feel like this.
I'm either completely constipated (yummy I know)... or the complete opposite.
I'm nauseous about 85% of the time and when I'm not it's still kind of there.
I've only thrown up a couple times and it was because last week and the week before I had allergies so bad that I would cough so hard and long it would trigger my gag reflex.
And I've had bad headaches... that I can't sleep off and sometimes the couple of Tylenol I can take don't work..... I had a constant headache from Friday morning till about mid Sunday.
I do have nausea pills but the side effects are tiredness, head aches, and constipation. So by fixing one problem I make three others worse.
I know this all sounds like so much fun!!!! And I am whining up a storm but this is the normal of what I am feeling lately. I know that there are plenty of women out there who have it way worse than me and I am so thankful I'm not worse. And I commend all you women who just grin and bear it. I on the other hand can not.. I thought I was a tough girl, but any girl who thinks that has obviously not been pregnant yet.. I know there is tons more to come but for now things are finally starting to look up. I'm 12 weeks and I can feel that some of the crazy 1st trimester symptoms are starting to let up a bit and everything else that I will deal with the whole pregnancy I am starting to get used to and am starting to be able to deal a little bit better. It's been kind of a shock I must say.

I have a ultra sound and doctor visit on Thursday so i will give you baby x 2 details then. :)

So for the last month or so (whenever my last pre-baby-news blog was) I have been up to a lot.
I do have pictures of all of this stuff but I feel like I'm so behind that if I try to get them all in I will never catch up. So sorry this post will have to go without.

*the first weekend of may Kole and I went up to the golden spike, to go camping with his family and he competed in a gun shoot. Everyone who competed did such a good job! It was a cold weekend but it was a lot of fun. I even was able to go over to Brigham and see my parents for a while one night.
* The middle of May was Hannah's baby shower up in American fork. Mary, Hannah, Trinity and I took a fun little road trip up there and Had a great time with all the women in our family.
*My niece Trinity had her 7th B-day party at Pirate island pizza and that happened to be the day we found out we were having twins and told our families.. Good day!!
*Kole and I took trinity to the medieval fair at the Washington county fair grounds and later that night told some friends our good news and ate a medieval dinner complete with show and no utensils.
*Memorial weekend we spent most of the time hanging out at home but one day we drove out to the Ramsay cabin with Kris, Danielle and their kids. We were able to hang out with everyone there and had such a fun day!
*My birthday was on the 4th so we had a fun family/friend BBQ at our house! Thank you to everyone who was able to come. It made my birthday amazing!
I think I'm pretty much caught up and can now post pictures and hopefully keep up with life.... And I promise the next one will have pictures and wont be so whiny!!
