10 weeks

This post is late... but better late than never. Monday marked 10 weeks pregnant. So far so good. Baby chick is the size of a prune! No morning sickness to speak of, just a genreal mild nausea throughout the day and a keen sense of smell. I'm still exhausted. We had a family function in Vegas this weekend, so we (Steve) made the 6 hour drive to Vegas. It was uncomfortable, but totally worth it. We got to see a lot of my family and share the news of baby chick with them. They were all so happy. I am the youngest in the family...they have a hard time realizing that I have grown up! Three years ago when we got married, they couldn't believe it. Now that I am pregnant, they are even more in shock! They are all very happy for us though. It was so nice to share the news with everyone. This Sunday is mother's day and Steve will call his grandmother and let her know we are having a baby. After that, then I get to go public on Facebook. I will probably still wait until Friday the 15th to post it though. That is our next ulstrasound, so I will have great pics to go along with the announcement. A lot of gals have this on their blogs, so I thought I would do it too!
