Not feeling too much like Ms. Sunshine.

I find it amazing that now at nearly six weeks I am beginning to feel extremely sick. Shouldn't I have already been sick? Ugh. Sweet Pea is "roughly the size of half a baby pea," (fitting isn't it?) but unfortunately, even though little pea is so small I have still felt so bad that I really haven't wanted to get out of bed this weekend. I was starting to think I was home free on the whole sickness bit, but I am starting to feel (literally) like I was wrong. Perhaps this will just be a short spell. Lord, please let it be a short spell. I really am a wimp when it comes to pain.

Another thing... I despise the smell of the bathroom. That is normal though, right? It just doesn't seem to matter how much I clean it. It still stinks!

On a very positive note:
Psalm 139:13-16
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
This verse makes my heart smile.

The sonogram says: 5 and a half weeks.

Chad and I went in for our first sonogram today only to find out that I am not as far along as I had suspected. With all of the fatigue and breast tenderness I really thought that I was further along, maybe 8 weeks. Oh well, in reality it is probably better for the little sweet pea to stay in there a little longer; Chad and I have much to do before the little one arrives. Not to mention, the beginning of December is going to be very hectic with Chad's graduation and then moving.

Pregnancy updates:
I have noticed being a lot more sensitive to smells lately, which I know is normal. I have also noticed becoming more nauseous mostly in the morning and some at night, but I haven’t thrown up at all. That’s an achievement, right?

I am not exactly sure why but I am getting a gut feeling that this little sweet pea is going to be a girl. Chad and I have always said that whenever we finally had children we really hoped to have a boy first, but regardless, I will be just as happy with a little girl. ( :

Presleigh Tyler Bolton? It has a nice ring, I think.
