12 Weeks!

The morning sickness seems to be getting a little better.  I am not throwing up everyday, but rather at random times.  I find my stomach gets upset if I haven't had enough water, food, or there is a strange smell  lurking in the air.  Clementines have been my best friend!

I haven't told my second graders yet for fear that they will ask too many questions! I am planning on telling them in February or March but I am sure someone will notice before then! I have been trying to hide my very visible bump with long and loose fitting shirts.  I ordered some maternity clothes at Old Navy and I was very relieved to put them on today---maternity jeans are just soooooo comfortable!

In other news, we are getting in the Christmas spirit around our house.  We have all our Christmas shopping done, we just need to wrap and send them off! Saturday, we are going on a SURPRISE trip to ride on the Polar Express and Sunday, we will get our Christmas tree!  Eeek!
