Frosted Flakes and French Fries...

OK, I am just over 8 weeks pregnant and seriously, the nausea is killing me! I pretty much feel nauseated all day! I went to the Dr. Friday and he did give me something to help. The only problem is if I take a whole pill, I can't stay awake. So, I take half a pill and feel OK for like 2 hours and am back to feeling crappy. Ahhhhh. I just wish I didn't have to go to work and could sleep- the only time I don't feel sick is when I am asleep.

Additionally, almost nothing sounds good food wise. At least nothing good for me. For instance, today for lunch I had frosted flakes and french fries. :( It hit the spot...unfortunately, I am sure it will also be hitting my waist!

Don't get me wrong, I am super excited to have this baby- I just wish he/she didn't have to stay in there 7 more months. :(

Baby Higgins is on the way!!

So, I was going to wait until after my first official ob/gyn visit to post that Kyle and I are expecting a baby in April. However, when I realized that I had added a count down to my blog yesterday and that I have already told SEVERAL people, I decided to go ahead and post the blog.

We thought about waiting until after the first trimester to tell people...

If you know me though, you know I can't just keep news like that quiet!! So, most of you probably already know. We did a home test July 24 and found out. Then last week my doctor's office did a test to refer me to an ob/gyn and we received another confirmation. Next Friday is my first ob/gyn appointment.

We are both super excited!! Kyle has to deploy to Afghanistan next August and we were hoping to have a baby before he had to leave. My due date is April 5, 2010- just in time. :)

So, my best friend in the whole wide world, Jenn, came up for the weekend and we explored an old Civil War fort near Savannah. Here are some pics. :)
