Nursery Ideas

So lately my pregnancy has been kind of uneventful.  The morning sickness has finally subsided... and besides my sciatic nerve acting up for a couple of days.  Its been a ton better.

One of the best moments of the past few weeks my older sister made the drive down to Price to see our house and hang in good ol Price town.  (I was a little nervous I wouldn't be able to keep her entertained).  We went out to eat, toured the house, went to the Helper arts and music festival, and went swimming at the wave pool.

The wave pool was hilarious.  We were the only adults in the swimming pool and we were trying to support a big tube.  Several times the tube was tipped over and I'm sure both of us looked ridiculous and the adults sitting by the pool were probably laughing as they watched two pregnant women struggle to avoid the waves.

Meanwhile, I've been thinking about the nursery.  Even though we don't know the gender yet I've got the itch to get something going.  So I've started filling in all of the holes and cracks with mud to make sure the walls are perfect before adding color.  Here are a few pictures of nurseries that are giving me some inspiration.  Colors will probably be a silver/gray with yellow and depending on if its a girl or a boy we'll add a bit of blue or pink into the mix... maybe...

2nd Trimester...

So today I am officially 14 weeks Pregnant!  Yay.... which also means I am in the 2nd trimester officially. A lot of internet sites had differing opinions as to when the 2nd trimester really started... 13th week or 14th week.  So now that I am 14 weeks along there is no debating.  

Unfortunately, I feel just as sick if not sicker than I was during the 1st trimester.  Yesterday was the first day that I puked twice in a day.. and then I was sick with a migraine and pukes for the rest of the day.  This morning I woke up and my husband told me that he wasn't going to let me go to work.  He said I was too sick and that I needed a day to just rest and get my fluids back up.  

Apart from still being sick.. my back has started to hurt and I've become really really dizzy and lightheaded.  Yesterday while working I was walking and I suddenly felt like I was going to faint.  I had to sit down for a good 15 minutes or so before I could continue working.  

I would post a 14 week belly picture... but I just don't feel all that great right now... maybe I'll do it later. I have a "bump" but unless you knew I was pregnant you wouldn't know I was expecting.  I kinda just look fat to strangers.  Anyways... just another complaining post about the miseries of my pregnancy.  :)
