Update

We went to the doctor today. I still have gained no weight and even lost another pound, but the doctor assures me that it's fine and that the baby is taking everything it needs from me with regards to nutrients, etc.

She also told me that I can take Phenegrin for nausea everyday and that it won't do a thing to the baby. I try my best to not take it, but some days are awful and I just have to have something so that I can function. For example, yesterday I had to leave my summer school kids twice to throw up. How functional is that? Not functional.. I know. However, I usually do well enough to only have one of these pills once a week or so.

The room colors are in my head and I have a plan now. It will be gender neutral, but not green or yellow. It will be contemporary, clean, fresh, and trendy, but that is all I can say so far! I don't want to ruin the masterpiece that is carved in my head. So you will see pictures closer to the due date.

We picked out paint, or maybe I should say I picked out paint. As I was picking it out, Zach's response was "I'm going to go look at lumber." I know.. he was bursting at the seams with excitement and eagerness. That lumber was not for the baby room project, but for something else in his brilliant head full of ideas. ;)

One last thing is that we are scheduled for an ultrasound on July 15th. They will look at the physical characteristics of the baby and make sure everything is developing correctly. They will also tell us the sex of the baby if we choose to know. As of right now, we aren't going to find out.

I was the type of kid that couldn't stand a secret so I am not quite sure why I am entertaining the idea of not finding out. Im telling you-- I don't do secrets. As a kid, I spent many years sneaking my presents and surgically unwrapping them with a butter knife throughout the Christmas season. Then, re-taping them after finding out what sweet piece of awesomeness was inside. How the heck am I going to not find out? But, its my idea and I feel kind of comfortable about it.

Anyway, I'll keep ya posted!
