Today I turned in my letter of resignation. It was a hard thing to do as it turns out. I feel terribly guilty about leaving. I am a little worried about not having a job. But wait I will have one soon. I am going to be mom. So before that happens there is a ton of things that need to get done around this house. So that will be my job starting April 28, 2008.
Since we have been home from our trip to Florida. We have been refering to it as The Florida Food Tour. Each morning I would wake up and say "honey, I'm hungry, I am going downstairs to breakfast. Do you want to go?" Some mornings he said yes some no. Then at around 11:30 "Honey, I'm hungry." And off to lunch we would go. Then six rolls around "Honey, I'm hungry." And off to dinner we would go. This is how most days on our trip went. Plus the snacks we purchased to keep in the room for me to nibble on.
Now you would think that I gained weight with all that eating wouldn't you. Well no actually. I lost two pounds. My husband however gained five. He thinks this is terribly unfair.
But let me explain further. When we go eat these days I am only able to eat about 1/2 to 1/3 of a meal. Then about an hour or two later I am ready for a snack. So I am eating more often. But I am not going to less food. I guess the baby and I are using more calories than I take in.
Unlike my co-worker Dana I didn't take any pictures of my meals but I did take lots pictures while we were in Florida. They are out there on my flickr.
Well we can say for the most part our vacation has been sunny. But it has been chilly. Not as cold as it is at home. But too cool to be on the beach for me. I have had one beach afternoon so far. Looks like it will warm up for tomorrow.
We had our first anniversary yesterday. It was a good day for us. We went to the Clearwater aquarium and had a really good dinner. The first good meal I have had down here.
Tonight we are going to Belleair Beach and meeting my aunt, cousin and her son for dinner and a reunion of sorts.
Tomorrow we go to Seminole and see my brother-in-law and his kido's for dinner at their place down here.
We are having a nice relaxing time down here. Just ready for that northern wind to change to a southern wind.
Yesterday I went to a Maternal Fetal Specialist just to be sure with my history of blood clots and my sisters problems when she was pregnant that I wouldn't have any similar issues.
The appointment went well. Everything seems to be moving along smoothly at this point the baby had a heart beat of 187 which is normal.
The Specialist did say that due to my history that she would like to see me taking Heprin or Lovanox for the remainder of the pregancy.
So say that do you know what I have to do now twice a day??? I have to inject myself in the belly...
I did also get another ultrasound done yesterday but the one picture I got is worse than the one I got 3 weeks ago. So I guess everyone will have to wait until the 20 weeks ultrasound to see another picture. And then we will know what gender the baby will be.
Also the news with the first ultrasound changed my due date to September 27th. Which means today I am 8 weeks and 4 days.
