WARNING: this post is going to be graphic because I don't feel good and I'm a little annoyed! So if you have a weak stomach or don't want to be disgusted or don't think you will ever be able to look at me the same or just don't care for nasty things then go to the next page, skip, move on, but DON'T READ THIS! Consider yourself warned...
Something about Fridays does not sit well with me and this baby. I have consistently felt the worst I have felt all week on Friday's. And I have consistently spewed for 3 Friday's in a row now. It's getting really old and I know I should be feeling lucky that it isn't everyday I feel this crappy, but it's really hard to feel grateful or lucky or thankful for anything when I can't even get of the couch because I am just so nauseous! (Ok, I really am grateful that most days I don't puke and I feel well enough to shower and be semi-productive).
Early this afternoon I was craving chips and guacamole so bad! So naturally that is about the only thing I have eaten today. Plus a small cup of peaches. And what do you know 5 minutes after finishing my peaches, it all wanted to come back up! I booked it to the bathroom and stood over the toilet, my mouth dripping with saliva (tell-tale sign its coming!). Eventually it all plunged out into the toilet (if you're still reading this and aren't sure STOP NOW!) guacamole, chips, peaches, it all came up and it came fast! So here I am standing over the toilet as is normal puking stance, and it all hits the water and splashes back up onto my face and my arms...covered in my own vomit! It was disgusting and when I got the chance I grabbed the trash can instead. G-R-O-S-S! This was the first time I have ever had splash back and it was not a good experience!
So I washed my face and arms, cleaned up the toilet bowl and felt a little bit better, but only for a minute. I am so over this junky feeling! I don't know how people do this! I am miserable, and I think I'm one of the luckier ones. I guess I'm just wimpy, but I was super ticked off after this particular experience! I do not love being pregnant and I feel terrible saying that! I feel like a bad mom that I am hating this...can it please be November already?!
FLORIDA!
This was a trip I wasn't sure if I was going to make it on because the day before I was supposed to fly down I was so so sick! I thought that maybe pregnancy had finally hit me and I was miserable! But thankfully I felt much much better Monday and think I must have just had a bug over the weekend!

My flight was supposed to leave Hagerstown, MD at 7pm but got delayed and didn't leave till after 8. It was an ok flight, I wasnt nauseous but being in the air my stomach felt pinched and cramped the whole plane ride so it was still pretty miserable. But I survived without any big mishaps and felt so much better to be on land! Katie timed her arrival perfectly (even though she almost went to the wrong airport) and met me with a nice big bag of chocolate, water, our first baby outfit, all in a big bowl for me to puke in (I don't know if that was really what it was for). Our drive from Orlando to Gainseville seemed to take forever but it we had lots to talk about so I didn't mind.
Lucky for me Porter was a little sick while I was there for the week which meant that we took it easy and didn't play too hard and took our time getting up and out the door in the morning. I REALLY appreciated the slow mornings as that was usually when I felt the worst.
I felt the best I had felt in weeks while in Florida and that was a huge blessing! Katie also introduced me to taking vitamin B6 with half a unisom at dinner time, which is supposed to help with nausea and it seemed to do the trick! The only day I didn't take it was the day I barfed, I don't think that was a coincidence and now I swear by it!

- packed up all my stuff (minus 1 bag of baby stuff I left in Florida, dangit!).

- ate Steak n Shake for lunch and it was pretty delicious!
- cried through security because I was so sad to leave all of them :( and I'm pregnant so I cry over everything.
- airplane ride was a little more enjoyable than the first.
I had a really fun trip and enjoyed the sunshine and warmth but I more enjoyed hanging out with Katie and Lincoln and Porter (even though he doesn't like anyone but his mom).
Lincoln and I played a bunch on the kindle (he calls it the ipad) and curious george on the computer, he likes to say "what do you think of that idea?!", he likes to scare all the lizards, he steals any food I have that he wants, he is suuuuper cute and I can't wait to see them all again!
