Things are going pretty well so far other than the fact that I can't eat early in the morning without feeling sick. I can't not eat either! Really the trick is that I have to eat a little bit very slowly and sit up for a few minutes before I get too active. All I have wanted for breakfast lately is gingersnaps. I have never ever craved them, bought them or even eaten many of them but for some reason they are the thing right now. It is pretty neat to think that right now this little baby's organs are forming and the heart is dividing into chambers and beginning to pump blood. There is nothing more precious than having a tiny life forming inside of you.
Kayla is already used to the idea of hearing that there is a baby inside of mommy. If asked to kiss the baby she kisses my belly. She'll have a very long time to get used to the idea of a new baby.
Kayla's week has been filled with activities. She is handling our busy schedule quite well. Today we spent the day at her Grandma Johnsons house with her cousins, Abby and Frank and Uncle Gordon and Aunt Lee Ann. We made a birthday cake and celebrated Grandmas birthday. We got to have a picnic at the Aransas Wildlife Refuge and walk out on the peer and look out of the slats at the bay water. Kayla definitely had fun on the peer. Then back at Grandmas house while everyone else cleaned and hauled things to the dump, Kayla got to explore Grandmas toy boxes, that was fun too but the best part of the whole day was eating birthday cake. I think a goodnights sleep and a bath will be quite inviting to this busy little toddler tonight!
I'm trying to post a picture with this blog but can't get it to work. Eventually I'll learn how to run this blog for now you'll have to be patient with me.

Your industry is manufacturing? Linda, you crack me up! I guess growing a baby qualifies you for that title, but just so you know - if you click on the manufacturing link, it pairs you with people called Pedro, Armenian, and Muggsy! :.)

Congratulations, Linda and Greg!

Well Sheree, I tried and tried to find a better industry but the choices just wouldn't allow ; )

Don't they say Ginger is good for morning sickness? I guess that is a good craving to have! I love that you have a blog and I can keep up with you again! I have a blog too! I'll have to email it to you. Once you can post pics, you'll need to get some up of your horses!
