So after a week of living in the bathroom Tom told me to call the Dr. I haven't been able to keep liquids down, I am dizzy (I feel like I am going to pass out even though I am laying down), my heart has been doing some funny things, I lost 20lbs in a week, fun stuff like that. Tom was reading the baby book the Dr gave me and it said to call the Dr if was having any of these symptoms. I called this morning and the nurse wasn't too concerned at first but then I elaborated on the situation and she changed her mind. She gave me a prescription and said that if it doesn't work in the next couple days I need to let them know. They might want me to come in. She also said that I was allowed to take Dramamine!!! Yeah! I am so going to try to sleep the whole way back to Kenosha! We might be leaving tomorrow to come back because there is supposed to be freezing rain coming and Tom wants to get out of here before that comes. Please pray for us as we make our way back to Kenosha.

I am dying! I swear! Not really but it feels like it. We are pregnant. Normally that statement would have an exclamation mark at the end but I am too sick to put it there. Lord willing Baby Guthery will be arriving July 27th. I had my first ultrasound on Monday and they confirmed that the baby is in the uterus and the heart is beating! I am very thankful for this. I am not sure I could handle another miscarriage. I am so sick right now it is ridiculous. I have a nest of towels and blankets on the bathroom floor. I have lost 9lbs in the past three days. Poor Tom went to work without food or breakfast today because I was too busy in the bathroom.

I call this my nest...the layers keep the cold away.

I also have a container of green works wipes handy. My bathroom gets wiped down often now that I am living in there. There is nothing like living on the bathroom floor to make you feel really gross. I am praying that someday soon this goes away. I told Tom last night that this was our last baby. He reminded me that we had already discussed this and that I decided that 4 was the perfect number. I informed him that I had changed my mind since then. He still didn't take me seriously...

So it has been almost a month since the last time I posted. Why? Because there hasn't been anything to post about.

So Tom keeps telling me that it is going to snow and I keep getting excited thinking that I am going to wake up the next day to a winter wonderland and I am constantly disappointed. But today it really did snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I woke up to this!

So of course we had to go sledding :) But we had to get a few essentials first; like snow pants, long underwear and a sled.

We considered our options and I think we got the best one!

After he blew it up we were ready to go!!

 You have no idea how steep that hill was!!!!


I wish I could have gotten a picture of both of us on the innertube (we both fit) but I didn't really trust the little kids we were sledding by not to drop my camera in the snow.

After our first run down the hill I was covered!

This is the other side of the hill we were on. We decided to sled on the side that didn't have water on it :)


On the way back to our car Tom had some extra fun!

And ended up in a tree. Lol :)

We had a lot of fun!
