Here's the scoop

Hi. I'm pregnant. Therefore, I don't really know when I'll post anything too exciting again. I'm just trying to survive from day to day and often moment to moment. It's funny because when I'm not pregnant, I have depression, but when I'm pregnant, I feel so sick but the depression is basically gone. Sometimes I would choose being pregnant over being depressed, but sometimes I would choose the other way around. At least when I'm depressed, I can control it to a degree and there are things that I know will help me feel better. But when I'm pregnant, there's not much that makes me feel better. And I feel bad because my loving husband already has enough to worry about but now he worries about me all the time and feels like he needs to be this man who does everything for everyone while going to school and working and taking care of the little one we already have. He's trying to keep the house clean, make every meal he can for us, etc. etc. I love him very much and hope I feel better soon so I can step up the plate again and play this game of life.
Well, I didn't mean for this to be a blog complaining about being pregnant. It was intended to announce that I'm pregnant to those who don't know. I am actually very thankful that I am blessed to be able to be pregnant- LIFE is such a great miracle!

Yay! It's official! :) Since I am now past the heinous "I wanna die" phase of my own pregnancy, I would love to come over and help you with anything--or make a meal for your family? Think about what I can do and let me tomorrow at enrichment!

Hi Tye,
feeling sick aside, this is beautiful news. I'm glad I got to see you for a moment at Christmas. I always feel better about life in general after spending time with you. I love you :)

Congrats!! So, when are you due? When do you find out what you are having? I'm sorry about the sick part, hopefully it will pass quickly!

YAY for a new post! I'm pretty late reading it, but it was still exciting.

I think it's so great that you're pregnant. I'm so excited to find out if it's a boy or a girl. Can you imagine having another girl? I wonder how different she'd be from Millie. I really can't imagine you with a boy, but I guess it's possible.

Anyways, hope you feel better soon. Sounds like being pregnant is pretty rough for you.

Hi, Tye!

Congratulations! That is very exciting, if not the most fun any of us has ever had. And don't sweat it: at some point you'll feel better and you'll be the one coming through for your sweet husband. That's what it's all about and aren't we grateful to have people to take care of us and people to take care of at turns throughout our lives? Very good news. All the best!
