NOT Two Peas in this Bod

Okay, after a hilarious email from my friend Colleen I realized the error of the last post's title...Just to clarify, there is only one pea in this body...not two. I was told what havoc it caused to see a post by a pregnant lady entitled "two peas in a pod."

As far as the "pea" (or rather "avocado" at 16 weeks) goes, the morning sickness has not subsided...its actually getting worse...now I'm up to taking two pills a day to help with the nausea instead of the one at night...too many of my friends have had to listen to my complaints over the past few days. I just can't understand how I felt so great with Logan after the first trimester, and how I can feel so absolutely awful still with this one. I know that pregnancy is just a time in your life when you are totally self-absorbed, but I thought that it would be better with this one after I could just get through the sick stage...I guess I'm going to have to fight a little harder to get out of this "selfish" mode. Please forgive my rantings.

On a lighter note, we go to the doctor next Wednesday and we will schedule "The Ultrasound." Yes, we will be finding out the gender of the baby and we will be shouting it from the mountaintops, but we haven't determined yet when we'll be shouting it. I'm also toying with the idea of letting Logan come to that appointment. He's SO interested and curious about seeing the baby and hearing its heartbeat (he sticks his ear to my tummy several times a day to see if he can hear its heart) that I think it would be really sweet for him to be there. Plus, I think that it would be sweet to have him there to be "surprised" with us on the gender. We've been talking the whole pregnancy about how this is just as much his baby as it is mine and Jarrod's so that he knows how special he is and how he fits into this family--he's finally started referring to it as "our baby" which I just love. I'll keep you posted which route we go.
