Jellybean gets a name!

Ladies - Thank you for all the support I received after Wednesday's post. It made me feel much better and reminded me that yes - I do need to take it easy sometimes. My body also helped remind me that afternoon. My indigestion got so bad that I actually threw up from it! I decided to leave the chores undone and have hubby drop me off at my mom and dad's so they could take care of me for a bit. My dad gave me some Prilosec which combined with Tums seems to be helping. I finally slept through the night Wednesday night! Yesterday was rough on me though since I had a 14 hour work day with about 6 hours on my feet. I am taking a very lazy day at work today in exchange.

As a special treat though - Joey is working right by me today so I get to have a lunch date with the hubby. Even though I'm a little po'ed at him - it still makes me happy to see him in the middle of my day.

On to the preggo update - the camera angle is weird on this weeks shot so for some reason my butt looks like it grew while my tummy shrank - I assure you both have indeed grown!
