Feeling baby

I felt this baby move yesterday. I think feeling the baby move is my favorite part of pregnancy. I'm so glad it came early this time. The feathery tickle of tiny baby movements is reassuring and miraculous! I get to see the baby again next Tuesday. It will be so fun to see how much growth has happened in the last two weeks.

I have been Zofran free since Sunday. I've been taking oral Meclizine and Zyrtec and that seems to help enough to get me functioning during the day, not my normal self, but better than a few weeks ago. I am not vomitting as much, but the nausea is still ever present. I am eating more foods, but still have Captain Crunch on hand all the time. I swear I will never eat the stuff again after this is done! I'm still needing fluids each night through the IV, I'm just not able to drink much yet. Fluids are the worst to try and keep down. Hopefully in the next few weeks I'll be doing better in the fluid department!

Hannah attended Daycamp all week in the mornings at our church. She loved every minute of it and Isaac very much enjoyed having Mimi Marci all to himself! He didn't mind Hannah leaving at all. Hannah brought home some really neat crafts and is singing camp songs for us. Isaac is catching on to the songs as singing them himself. Such musical children!

Marci leaves for Minnesota tomorrow. I am a tad bit nervous about being on my own again. At least Aaron is done with school and should be able to help out quite a bit. It has been such a blessing to have 5 weeks of help from the Moms. I can't stress enough how blessed we are to have such wonderful family! Both Marci and my Mom were a God send to me and to the kids. Life would have been pretty hard without them! I thank God for such wonderful women in the lives of my children. What great role models!

Aaron picked our garden snow peas today and we had them for dinner... so yummy! The wind did a number on them, but we are still getting some produce.

Sunday will be our last Sunday at our church here in Endicott. We will be joining Concordia, the church in Pullman where I work. The timing seemed right and we are excited to be part of such a vibrant church! The drive will get a bit old, but hopefully the house will sell and we will be closer soon!

And that's all from Endicott... for now!
