Adragon's Journal

Wow its been awhile since I posted a journal entry. I find time being swallowed up before I know whats happening. Already I'm approaching the end of week 14 (woot) and officially in the 2nd trimester. I've noticed that my morning sickness seems to be slacking off a bit with the days and time I'm sick getting shorter and shorter each bout and the days I'm feeling good lasting longer and longer between sickness. I'm really glad about that cause being sick kinda sucks.

As christmas comes closer I'm hoping that I'll feel well enough to get the shopping done and almost anyone who asks what I want for christmas gets a standardized responce of "I'm sure you'll think of something but if you can't baby gift cards from Babies R Us would work as well". I know that these 2 kids will be quite the financial strain on the pocketbook but if we manage things right we should be ok. Also with the weather picking up and snow and ice all around I'm being more careful then ever when getting around. I don't want to risk slipping and falling which could be very bad. My sister has suggested I check out some sort of shoe product called Yaktrax or something like that. Apparently its designed to prevent you from slipping on icey walkways and stairs. Not sure how it would work though. Guess I gotta do my research.

As I progress through my pregnancy I'm finding a need for supporting pillows to be growing. I'm hoping to get a body pillow soon to help me stay supported and that in turn should also help me get a more fulfilling nights rest. I seem to wake up all the time. Irksome. I'm also finding that I hope the "heater" system provided by being pregnant kicks in soon. Its getting very cold and being small doesn't make surviving the winter months very easy. Anyway thats it for now i guess.
