1 week anniversary of knowing we're expecting!

Well, we have rescheduled the ultrasound for a time that Cliff should be able to come. It is scheduled for Thursday, September 14 at 1:45. Based on what I've heard about the first ultrasound, I am a little nervous! But, we will get to see the baby, so it will all be worth it. :)
Well, I'm starting to notice some trends in timing. Such as, I wake up almost every night near the 3:00 am hour. Usually around 3:30. Already, I am having such a hard time sleeping at night or even getting comfortable for a nap. How did that happen so fast? I thought this was my time to get lots of sleep before the baby arrives...but perhaps I've been misinformed. :) I am currently sleeping with three pillows. One under my head, one between my arms and one between my knees. This is the only way I come remotely close to even being comfortable enough to consider sleeping. I've done some research and evidently being this uncomfortable at night early on is very common. Oh, and the latest weird thing is that I don't like my favorite blanket anymore. Cliff and I have a blanket that came from his parents house that we sleep under every night, or at least we used to. Now, he has it all to himself because it is not longer suitable to my sleeping needs. I started needing something that felt heavier for whatever reason, although that usually means I am burning up in the mornings. Isn't this weird?
Another trend in timing I have going on, is that at work I've been getting sick to my stomach in the 9:00 hour. My first graders get a nice little break while I retreat to a private place. Yesterday I had no cash on me (which I never do) and so I had to borrow money from friends at school to purchase a Sprite. This was my first carbonated drink since becoming pregnant. Other than that I've only had water, OJ and milk. I'm living off mostly OJ and water right now.
I need to start walking, so I think I will attempt that tonight once it cools off. I haven't started it yet, but I know it's past time. In reference to the subject of this entry, I cannot believe it's been an entire week since we found out our big news. How time flies! Before we know it, I will be writing on here about what a great coach Cliff was in the delivery room. Thank you again for all your love, support and prayers. This journey is not ours alone and we are so happy to be able to share it with all the people we love.
