giving props to “old hickory”

Not THAT old hickory, the hickory burger from Sonic. Knowing that Jen has been sick and not eating alot lately, im always asking her if anything sounds good, if shes having any cravings, etc. Today right before i left work i called her, and she thought that a hickory burger (no onions, no lettuce) from Sonic sounded good. That, and a strawberry sundae. She ate the burger, but later decided that maybe it was too much, too soon. At least shes eating something other than Chicken McNuggets and grilled cheese sandwiches. “im eatin’ for two, y’all!”

should have read the fine print…

I think most girls grow up wanting to have children. From an early age we are picking out names and deciding on if we want a boy or a girl and how many of each we want. As I got a little older I even thought about how cool it would be when I got the big baby bump and how it would be so obvious to everybody that I was pregnant then. Before we finally got the positive test, I was already deciding on what colors we would paint the room and different themes we could go with. The thing that I never thought about was the first trimester and the not so awesome symptoms that I would be experiencing. I am 27 and I think I’m a pretty strong woman, one who can handle pain but this is harder than I thought it would be…
