(Just a heads up, this post is a little on the long side...)
I got an email this morning from my dad saying I don't update my blog enough, so here is an update.
This week has been pretty laid back. Brennon has Tuesdays and Wednesdays off so on Tuesday we went to lunch with mom and dad at the Chinese buffet (thanks mom and dad for lunch!) then went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart! So exciting! For the first time someone actually thought I was pregnant! That's the first time it's happened so I must be getting bigger!
Yesterday Brennon and I got so bored sitting around at home we decided to take a drive to Tonto creek and hike along the trail. Brennon fished for a little and wanted to bring some fish home for dinner, but he only caught one, so we threw it back in. We hiked a little and Wrangler swam in the creek, then we left there and drove down to Thompson Draw/Bear Flats since I've never been down there. It's kind of a scary road since it's on a cliff and is only wide enough for one car, but when you get down in there there are houses and Tonto creek runs through it, it's really pretty!
After our adventures we drove back home, but apparently all that driving on the curvy road made me sick so we had to pull over in front of Safeway so I could get out of the truck and puke my guts out.. ugh. So embarrassing when people watch you throw up.
Everything is going good with the pregnancy, I don't really get sick anymore, just when I get car-sick. No more random throwing up at home! I have been getting headaches EVERYDAY though and I'm not sure what's causing that. I've been trying not to take too much medicine for it, but it's the only thing that makes it go away. Anyone know why I'm getting headaches everyday? I think it's the same headache day after day because it's in the same spot. Maybe I need more water, or maybe it's the heat..
My belly is starting to pop out a little! But you can't really tell I'm pregnant yet. I'm still in the stage of "Is she pregnant or does she really not care about her weight anymore?" Hopefully I'll be out of that stage soon.
I'm going to the doctor on Wednesday, just for a regular checkup and then two weeks after that we find out what we're having! I don't know if I can wait another two weeks! I'm so impatient, thank you dad for that trait :)...
Today I'm having lunch again with mom and then we're going to see The Proposal! We've heard it's really good so I'm excited to see it!
This weekend Brennon's family is having a memorial gathering type thing for his grandpa that passed away 20 years ago, so we're going to be eating some of his favorite foods and playing softball at the park. I'll try to take some pictures of the events that way next time I post it wont be boring with just words and no pictures!
Hope everyone is doing well!

You're dad is right, you don't post enough. Start taking belly pics so everyone can see your progress!! :)
I got headaches my first two trimesters and we finally figured out that I wasn't staying hydrated enough. Drink a TON of water all the time. Seriously. You're going to have to pee so much more, but you have to keep hydrated... gosh, I feel like your mother. :)
Can't wait to find out what you're having!! Regardless, he/she will be absolutely adorable!
Water Water Water there is nothing more important, especially in the AZ heat. If it's hard to drink it plain add a little lemon to it. It should help with the headaches.
Your post made me miss Payson :-( I totally hate that "Is she just getting fat?" stage of pregnancy. I didn't tell my students I was pregnant and it was hilarious because finally they started asking stuff like, "Mrs. Dinsmore, are you having a baby?" and I would look at them and go "Why? Do I look like I've gained weight?" One girl told me "Well, you used to be skinny and beautiful." Ha!
