Symptoms:  

I had a few rough days at the beginning of the week- like not even able to hold down my water in the morning. Thankfully, it stopped after I lost everything in the mornings for those two days. I was afraid I was going to be hospitalized! Then, I had a few great days without losing any food!!! But then all this week, it's back to throwing up again. I know you probably don't want so many details on this, but this blog is for me to remember, so you may have to deal with it if you are reading this. :) Other than that, I've felt pretty good. I am still so bloated by the end of the night but the stomach disappears by the morning.

Mood: 

Happy

Looking forward to: 

Getting to know my new class!

I can't believe I'm already 15 weeks pregnant! I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere. I'm starting to finally show a little bit too. We'll see if I start to grow out of my pants soon...

Last weekend Dan started his exercise- meaning he was gone from about 7:30 am -9 pm. They did that for about 8 or 9 days I believe. Basically they are playing war and being able to show inspectors that they can complete certain real-world tasks. This gave me lots of time to start preparing my documents for orientation and the first week of school. I have my lesson plans done for the first week of school!

Saturday night, I went to a Pampered Chef party at a friend's house and we made chocolate lava cake and ice cream blizzards. Yum!!! I put in an order for my first Pampered Chef items. We'll see if they are as amazing as everyone keeps saying!

Aside from that, not much else except really enjoying my last week of freedom! I thoroughly enjoyed the laziness of this summer- the sleeping in, doing whatever I wanted, and not having a set schedule. I will miss that for sure!
