10 in 10

So this wonderful baby growing inside of me has been a learning experience for sure.   Before we found out I was pregnant, I was honestly always concerned on how pregnancy would effect our marriage.  It runs in my family that morning sickness is pretty much 24/7 during most or some of the pregnancy and definitely during first trimester.  But Jon has definitely stepped up and he's been a huge help!  When I'm throwing up constantly in one day he is always uplifting and helping me out.  Whenever he can he comes to work with me and helps me with my nanny job.  These days I can't step into the kitchen...he does the dishes, gets me the food I need, etc.  I am sick the most in the morning, mid-day, and in the evening.  And sometimes it gets really bad if I'm unable to get food in me before "it's too late" and then I can't keep anything down after that.  Except the wonderful help given by my saltines.  This baby is going to like apples!  It's the go-to fruit that I've been able to eat between "meals."  I can also handle strawberries....but enough chat about food.  I feel icky!

Why did I say 10 in 10?  Because in ten weeks I lost 10 pounds.  I'm also looking forward to the day that I can enjoy sitting down and enjoying a FULL meal and not feel sick after it.  I don't even mind if it's not hot.  I just miss that stuff.
So go have fun and enjoy your big cheeseburger and fries and I'll go lay down and hold my stomach and think of my sweet baby growing.
Can't wait to meet this little one!

    Pancakes actually sound good these days! :) Feels like they are filling for the morning. :) My mom has a yummy recipe that's really healthy. I can't eat cheeseburgers for that same reason. The first night I kept throwing up my food and couldn't stop...left me with a stomach ache all through the night. :P I've been throwing up at least once a day (the most was 6 times I think) since February.

I was raised by a strict purity culture, and my father is a narcissistic sex addict

Image
  I would like to imagine life without hidden secrets or agendas.  If my desires could be brought to life my childhood would have been completely different.   ~~~~~ Until recently, I had never heard of the term "purity culture."  When I learned more about it, everything began to come clear to me.  The harsh feelings of betrayal stood out in my life countless times upon investing in space to process all the areas purity culture has entered into my way of thinking.  Purity culture is gender expectations based on a strict stereotype.  Men are expected to be strong, "masculine" leaders of the household, church, and society.  Women are expected to support them -- to be pretty, "feminine," sweet, supportive wives and mothers.  Before I go on into more detail, I can't help but notice things from that stereotype that has definite red flags.  Never once did it mention men are to be fathers, but it surely intended on making clear to state about women becoming su

Blog Party! :)

Image
Through Facebook I have found some more lovely blogs that I love to browse! :)  The ones with stories about their kiddos are fun and inspiring.  I also enjoy reading recipes and I'm thankful for those people out there showing me what to do in the kitchen!  I'm newly married (June 12, 2010) and figuring this all out.  I never enjoyed being in the kitchen that much growing up.  I was in charge of washing dishes, and looking at all those dishes being used........so I never spent a lot of time learning how to do things.  Now I regret it daily. But back to the Blog Party!  I'm a little late but now I'm healthy enough to answer the questions!! To start off, here's a little bit about myself.  I turn 23 on May 5th.  I share a birthday with my big sister and she will be thankful if I don't say how old she is turning (shh! we're seven years apart).  I posted not that long ago a list of 100 random things about me, so go read that if you're desperately wondering.

Bathroom Remodeling & stufffff

Image
Back in June 2013 when we bought the house we knew we were going to fix up the bathroom.  It didn't come with a shower, just a tub.  However we had to take down some tile to make that happen.  There wasn't the proper drywall surrounding the tub to prevent water damage.  Plus there was a window RIGHT in the middle of the exterior wall so we couldn't just easily put a shower in.  As time went on and washing paint brushes in that bathroom (who cares if we get paint in there?) Jon started to notice a leak.  So we stopped using that sink and figured there was more remodeling to do.  At that point we said....all or nothing. Issues in the bathroom/stuff that wasn't a big deal but wanted to change to make it our own: 1. No shower 2. Leaking sink faucet onto pipes. 3. Copper pipes (updated plumbing needed!) 4. Electrical updates desperately needed 5. Poor lighting (two can lights halfway down the wall only over sink is not well thought out) 6. Exterior Window 7. Vanity
