First Time - not fun!!

So today marks a "magical" day. It is the first day in any of my pregnancies that I have actually hung over the toilet. Yes - now you know something very exciting!! I was getting changed and that horrible feeling came over me (for some reason it hits me really fast with this pregnancy), and I realized "shoot, I haven't gotten around to breakfast yet, just some OJ". By the time I finished throwing on my clothes, I made a dash to the bathroom. Not cool. And to make matters a little more interesting - that would be the exact moment Nora comes pounding on the door telling me she has to go potty. Between "releases", I'm telling her to go upstairs, knowing full well that she won't go but will continue to plea with me to open the door. By the time the OJ was out of my system, I opened the door to find that, yes, as I had expected, her undies were already wet. Oh the joys!!! This nausea I've been dealing with this time is unlike any of the others. There better not be a twin or something hiding behind the ONE we saw.... Wouldn't that be a treat ;)

Anyway, I shoved some cereal down me after the episode and will really try not to do that again. I've told myself that before, but clearly I didn't get the message too well. Maybe this time. I start my 2nd trimester on Friday, so I sure hope we are nearing the end of this. With the other kids, I was pretty good by my second Tri, so I'm hopeful. Though this one is proving to be a little different. I'm sicker and WAY more emotional (can't believe all the crying I've done!! NEVER did that with any of the others!!). Maybe its because I'm getting old :)

Well, Nora and I are off to drop off Aliza's backpack she forgot, then to the park to walk and finally to the dentist for Nora's first appt. I'm really uncertain how this will go! I hope I'll be pleasantly surprised!

Mom and Dad VH come in 2 days, and we get to celebrate Thanksgiving with them! Hooray :)

Catch ya later!
