That's what I have felt like for the past 3 months...hopefully it will get better. We have been on two fabulous vacations and I have wonderful pictures of these great times stored in my camera, but only recently have I been back on my computer. I never knew morning sickness could last all day everyday, or could prevent me from reading or watching tv because it made me nauseous. This pregnancy has been unlike either one in the fact that I have become a blimp that sits around waiting for someone (Kenny, his mom, or my mom) to help me. I am remembering Grace's pregnancy and recall doing spin 3 times a week without ever feeling sick. I made the mistake of doing a 2 hour spin class with this one around 7 weeks and I think it is the cause of my all-day sickness being worse. So, I pretty much go to the gym for the pure fact that the kids are being watched by someone more energetic than myself and I usually just sit on a bike and take a cat nap. I can't wait to see how much weight I have gained already, I'm sure it will be a record. Surprisingly an all carb diet packs the pounds on even when you only keep half of it down.
Hopefully I will get back on the blog wagon and upload my pictures from south carolina and destin so that my kids can look back and remember actually going on these trips. I know I will never forget them...I love traveling with small children and one in utero who makes me throw up on a regular basis. In all seriousness both trips were really fun, it is just the process of getting there and coming back that can be a beating.
Last week my mom came to stay with us and did everything for me. I didn't even try to help, I would have hated to get in her way. She organized all of our closets and managed to do our laundry and cook for us. The week before Kenny's mom took the kids swimming by herself several mornings and cooked dinner for us every night. I feel so blessed!
While my mom was here Trey went to soccer camp. I quickly discovered that he hates being hot. It was the hottest week of the year and the camp was 4 hours long for 5 days, but the first thing he said to me when I picked him up the first day was "it's too hot here I want to do tennis camp, I think that would be inside". On the last day of the camp they had a game. I made the mistake of telling him we were going out for ice cream with friends afterwards, so when I walked up to watch the game he ran off the field, tore his jersey off, and told me he was ready for ice cream. When I told him that he needed to finish the game he just looked at me and told me he was too hot and that he would just sit out. So, we watched everyone else play. His friend Eli was an awesome player, Trey went up afterwards and told him what a great job he had done. I loved that Trey didn't need to be in the spotlight. He reminded me of myself and Amy. When we played soccer growing up we were the defenders who would do cartwheels and pick flowers while we waited for the ball to come our way. When the ball did come towards us I'm pretty sure we let the goalie do the work.
Today, swimming lessons. We tried the Y last year and he never let go of me, so they are both going to Miss Rosey's to try lessons with just the two of them. I am supposed to leave for the lesson, which I think will work much better. Apparently Miss Rosey is concerned about Grace because she is only 2, but I think she should be more concerned about Trey. I'll let her decide for herself.
