Catching up!

Hello! Whew I'm not very good at this whole blog updating thing. First off I'll update on the story of our pregnancy! Jacob and I found out on December 8th that we were expecting. We had not been planning this baby so we were quite surprised and of course excited. I had not been feeling well that past month but I had attributed it to the fact I was starting a new position at a new store and trying to find my place there. I was very stressed out so that's why I didn't suspect I was pregnant earlier. December 8th however was a really hard day, I had my last day of training in Scottsdale and the whole day I was feeling so tired and just not well. I came home and slept for like 3 hours and I woke up and I immediately had a random thought to take a pregnancy test. I thought that was a weird thought because I was pretty sure I was not pregnant. Jacob was in the front room studying for finals. I snuck into the bathroom and got one of the tests (we always keep a box of them just in case) I took the test and made the mistake of looking at it right away, there was already a positive sign forming. I started to get nervous and excited but  I told myself to wait the full 3 minutes because looking at it right away was not lucky. Well after pacing around the apartment for 3 minutes, I went to go look again. Positive. I then called Jacob to me and he thought I was calling him because there was a bug in the bathroom! haha! He came in and I pointed to the counter where the test was. He saw it was positive and he hugged me. We were so happy, but a little shell shocked because we had been planning on saving up more money before starting a family. But we are so grateful for this little blessing, and you know what? There is never a perfect time to have a baby so we know this baby will bring our family together. 
      I am now 14 weeks and in the 2nd trimester! Finally! I haven't vomited at all so far (fingers crossed!) but I have been very nauseous and barely able to eat anything. My doctor told me I need to gain some weight because I haven't gained any! It's actually harder than you think when the thought or smell of food makes you want to flee a room! I'm hoping now that I am in the 2nd trimester things will ease up on my stomach so I can fatten this baby up. 

     So what else is new? Well for our 2nd anniversary we went to San Diego for the weekend to enjoy some time away from school and work and we got to visit my sister and brother in law and my nephew Bradley! It was so relaxing. We didn't really plan anything, we just did whatever we wanted. On our anniversary, we spent the day at Sea World (we originally wanted to go to Disneyland, but fun rides are a no-no for preggo people) It was so fun because Jacob had never been and we had a blast walking around and going to the shows and even playing catch with dolphins!  

Right now we are just going to work and Jacob is going to school. I am not in school this semester because my new job is all the way out in queen creek and I work 9-10 hour days and that coupled with being pregnant would stress me out so my education is on hold right now. Jacob got me a DSLR camera for Christmas so I have been having fun learning how to use it! New hobby yay! Alright, I'll post some pics now!
