Six Weeks...

So we have officially known we are parents for all of a week now and it feels like forever. Neither one of us could wait to tell everyone we knew our good news. I know people often say its better to wait until you're in the clear until you make it public. All I have to say is "YEAH RIGHT!" Waiting a day until Josh got home to tell my family was seriously torture. I resorted to muting most of my phone calls because I knew if I answered I would for sure slip up and tell everyone.

It seemed like almost immediately after seeing the 2 lines on the pregnancy test, I have had some sort of symptom or another. But for those of you who know me well, this should come at no surprise to you. Before I even knew I was pregnant, Josh knew something was wrong because I was just plain 'ole mean. I didn't know why and I swear I couldn't help it.

The thing I have noticed the most about being pregnant is how freaking emotional I have become. Yes, I know I was emotional before but now I cry at things that are just ridiculously silly. Case and point, last night we were at Silver Dollar City to see the Christmas lights. As we are watching the enormous Christmas tree all decked out in lights that are synchronized to the Carol of the Bells. I start crying... I don't know if I am just overcome by the beauty of the tree or I am crying because I officially cannot feel my legs any more due to the fact that I am so damn cold.

Odds are that if you have seen me in the last week I have been eating or I am talking about eating. It seems as though my motivation throughout the day is based on food. The only time my stomach feels normal is when I am snacking on something. I have always been a big snacker so it's nice to have an excuse to snack a lot. I have been trying to only eat healthy things like fruit, Popsicles, and 100 calorie snacks. However Party Pizzas have been very enticing lately. They are just so good!

Josh is taking all of this in stride. He doesn't quite understand how I can be so tired and moody without even showing. He thinks a lot of it is in my head but I have to disagree. He has been very supportive and gives me a look to let me know that I should probably just keep my mouth closed and my thoughts to myself.
