I haven't updated since september so I figured I'd post a line or two here. I'm still pregnant and while the non-stop puking has calmed down I still have yet to find these "joys of pregnancy" everyone keeps referring too. On one hand I haven't blown up from pregnancy but on the other hand remainging really thin with a giant belly protruding off of me doesn't do anything good for my back. Oh well. 87 more days until he's here...Oh yeah he's a boy! We're naming him Miles dean and he's going to be the most awesome baby in the world, so be prepared. Here's his most recent photo, it's from almost 8 weeks ago:

Now, on to the quizzes lol!!

You Are Bert

Extremely serious and a little eccentric, people find you lovable - even if you don't love them! You are usually feeling: Logical - you rarely let your emotions rule you You are famous for: Being smart, a total neat freak, and maybe just a little evil How you life your life: With passion, even if your odd passions (like bottle caps and pigeons) are baffling to others

You Are a Citizen of the World

Whenever possible, you try to pay attention to what's going on in the world. You are truly interested in all people and countries, no matter how far away from you they are. You try to learn, travel, and understand. Being a part of the whole world is important to you, and you're always working to be more internationally focused.

Your Political Profile:

Overall: 55% Conservative, 45% Liberal Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal Personal Responsibility: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal Fiscal Issues: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal Defense and Crime: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal

You Have a Fairly Strong Willpower

Temptation doesn't get the better of you all that often. If you set your mind on a goal, you'll do your best to achieve it. And while you don't have a perfect record with willpower, you do okay. If you fall off the wagon with something, you're usually not off the wagon for long.

What Your Bed Says About You

Outward appearances are a concern of yours, but not your primary concern. You try to take care of yourself and your home, but it's not an obsession. You try to be an organized person, but you often fall behind. Certain parts of your life tend to fall into chaos. You are not very high maintenance in general, but you are high maintenance about a few things. In relationships, you tend to kick back and let the other person be in charge. You tend to be a dreamy, head in the clouds type of person. You think in terms of possibilities. You are a bit of a homebody, but you can also make yourself at home anywhere.

Sooo, I am officially on medicine to control my morning (and afternoon, and evening, and middle of the night...) sickness. After a lovely bought of waking up at 2am and running to the toilet and vomitting so hard that it made me wet myself, I though this can't be healthy. The next day I work I decided to weigh myself, and I had gone from 146lbs to 138lbs in less than a week. That prompted me to call my doctor bc I wasn't able to hold any food down, barely any liquids, I couldn't sleep and was just overall in shit shape. Well apparently they make meds to control this..Thank God!! I had never heard of this before, but I guess they don't want people just trying to avoid slight bouts of nausea or something. Either way, I feel great! I'm on my second day of the meds, and I slept all the way through the night last night. I have eaten normal meals both days, small meals, but not too small by any means.

Anyhoot, there's my update lol!

It doesn't look like a baby yet lol. I had to have one to see how far along I was bc my lady time wasn't a reliable source. I am 6 weeks, due May 2nd and we were able to hear the babies heart beat. It was awesome. I had a vaginal ultrasound, and I guess that made it easy for us to hear the heart really loud and pretty early. Before they didn't think we'd be able to hear it until at least Sept. 13. I thought I might pass out because I had to hold my breath for us to be able to hear it (I guess it could pick up on my breathing?) and I held it for over a minute bc I wanted to keep hearing it lol. Anyhoot. If you click on the thumbnail it will take you to the picture. It's so tiny and doesn't look at all human lol.

AAARRRRGGGGHHH. I am sick of being tired when I'm sleeping 10 hours a night and taking occasional naps. I'm sick of peeing every 10 minutes even if I don't drink anything. And I am DEFINATELY sick of this constant feeling like I have to puke, or puking. Not to mention how sick Marc probably is of me crying. I was crying last night because I was worried he was getting annoyed with me crying so much. Thankfully he is a wonderful man who takes it all in stride and wouldn't dare get mad at me for acting like a crazy hormonal mad woman, when he wants this child as much as I do. Not all parts of prenancy are bad either. For example, I am NOT sick of my boobs getting bigger each and every day lol!!

I went to the doctor today, now she is saying I could be as far as 6-7 weeks, and before we thought I was only 5 weeks. Tomorrow I am supposed to go a vaginal ultrasound (lucky me) to find out excatly how far along I am. Even though I am not particularly excited about having an overpriced stick of technology jammed up my lady parts, I am really excited about knowing for sure how far along I am and when I can expect to meet my wonderful love child lol. I can't wait to know!! Whoot!

Yay!! I'm due at the beginning of may and I'm ridiculously excited. We already have names picked out =) If it's a boy he will be Miles Hunter Phillips and if it's a girl she will be Savannah Jane Phillips.

Too bad I have a couple more months before we'll know which name we're going with lol.
