Morning sickness...
So at the 7 week mark, morning sickness has decided to make it's debut. I've been lucky, I suppose, not much actual vomiting, but just being queasy all the time is NO fun. As my friend Meg reminded me though, that's a good sign. It means that the pregnancy is progressing along.
I'm still not sure how 100% real this all seems to me. I mean, I definitely know I'm pregnant, and feel it. I think it's the fact that I haven't changed physically yet and can't feel the baby yet. It's just strange to me at times to realize that this year will be our last year of holidays and celebrations as just us.
Now don't get me wrong - we're both ready for this step. We've been just the two of us for nearly 9 years now. That's a long time! We've got a lifestyle that we're used to...sleeping in, schedule flexibility, basically not a ton of responsibilities! I know that they good parts of parenthood will outweigh the parts that will make us look at each other saying "And we REALLY wanted this?". I think it's just hitting me that in 2007, my life changes FOREVER.
But it's the best reason for change that I can think of, and I can't wait.

It probably will be a big change but you are right about it being worth it. Since I had Katrina so young I have never been a childless adult so I have no idea what that lifestyle is like or how much of a change it is for people. I hope the change goes really well for you and you enjoy your 2006 childless holidays because 2007 is going to be a lot different!
Yea, it's a huge change! Being 16 months "ab", life has settle into a routine. It's one that takes months to work out, and each little stage will change your routine a bit, but something that is so worth it!
Good luck with the ms!
