11 Weeks...and counting!

So, it has been a while since I have posted anything, sorry!

11 weeks - baby Carlson is almost fully formed and is just over 1 1/2 inches long- about the size of a fig!

Not too much has changed, ok so maybe a few things have changed...

* I feel fat, not pregnant- so I am hoping before too long I feel more pregnant than fat and hopefully I look more pregnant than fat- no such luck right now
* Clothes do NOT fit, nothing seems to be fitting- my normal clothes are too tight- my jeans don't fit, which is SO SAD- I haven't worn jeans in almost 2 weeks.
Erin was so sweet and gave me a huge box full of maternity clothes- THANK YOU ERIN!!!, but I am at that stage, where regular clothes are too tight and maternity clothes are still too big and just make me look even fatter
* Morning Sickness? ? ?  WHO came up with the MORNING part?  I have ALL DAY SICKNESS, and when I mean all day, I mean from the minute I get up until I go to bed and through the entire night.  I am getting to the real fun part- the part of pregnancy where NOTHING tastes good, looks good, smells good and I keep NOTHING down- I am hoping in the second trimester (about a week away) this crummy feeling goes away.  I'm not as tired as I have been, but I don't think that is much of a trade off- I rather be exhausted than sick
* Cooking and cleaning do not seem to interest me in the least- so that has kind of gone by the wayside right now- good think Kelly is understanding and has been really helpful around the house.  No wonder pregnant women get into nesting mode- they have to to clean up all the crap they have done nothing about for the past 7 to 8 months- I am ready for that stage!
*  We have been thinking about what to do with the spare bedroom/office/catch all/soon to be nursery- I think before too long we will be cleaning all our crap out of that room and closet and start making some room for baby Carlson.

Well- I think that is it for now- pictures to come of the growing belly soon!
