First Trimester: Weeks 1-13

I had great intentions of taking weekly pictures to document Baby Weaver's growth but the first trimester hit me like a ton of bricks and pictures were the last thing I felt like doing - although now I seriously regret it! So I thought I'd just document some things I remember and start doing better about weekly/monthly pictures.

At 6 weeks I started feeling nauseous. It started out just in the evenings but gradually (within the next few days) became an ALL day affair. I would try to keep something on my stomach at all times like everyone suggest but who wants to eat anything when you feel nauseated?! Plus I had terrible food aversions so coming up with something that sounded good was tough. Things I loved I suddenly couldn't stand such as sweet tea, Mexican food, any kind of meat, plain water, and eggs. I tried to take medication (Zofran, Phenergan) but to me the side effects of the meds were worse than the actual nausea so I dealt with it (threw up multiple times daily) the best I could. I have to give major props to my hubby who cooked, cleaned, grocery shopped, brought me whatever I needed (since I was bound to the couch/bed), and took care of the pups. I'm so incredibly thankful for him!

Thankfully by the end of the first trimester (really by the end of 14 weeks) things were looking up! I would only get sick if I didn't eat and my food aversions were SO much better. I am so grateful it didn't last the entire pregnancy and am looking forward to an easier second trimester!

Easter 2012 - Part I

We started off our Easter celebration Saturday at my Mamaw and Papaw's house in Fitler. It's so peaceful at their house. It's surrounded by fields, cell phones rarely work, and there is no internet- I love it!

There's only two kiddos but they had fun hunting Easter eggs!

Sheba, Shep, and Sam enjoyed the egg hunt as well!

I'm SO thankful our sweet Vicksburg friends still include us in the fun!
We love y'all!!!

One Year Anniversary

We celebrated our one year wedding anniversary on December 18, 2011! I can't believe how fast one year flew by! We had A LOT happen in our first year of marriage: two family weddings, nursing school graduation, new job for John, a move to the Jackson area, new job for me, and our sweet niece's birth!



John surprised me with dinner at Bonefish (my fav) and had flowers waiting on our table when we arrived. He also had the waiter bring out the top of our wedding cake for dessert! Suprisingly it tasted just as good one year later!


This is seriously the only picture I have from our anniversary! Sad sad sad!
I'll do better next year!
