Pregnancy

So being pregnant pretty much jacks up your entire body huh. I got some medicine from my doctor for the nausea so I am no longer loosing everything I eat, but now some new things have popped up! Out of respect for my readers I won't go into detail, but man my body is all sorts of wacky! The headaches are a new thing too but I have had headaches my whole life so I am used to those! As soon as this little guy/gal can read I am going to make these blogs into a book to remind them what I went through for them. Hah just kidding. I feel like I am always complaining about something but its always there and I am just waiting for this magical moment when everyone keeps telling me I will feel the best I have ever felt!

On a lighter note, I found a placement for my internship that starts in May and goes until I graduate in May of 2011. I am so excited about it and I think it is right up my alley. The place is in Fort Worth called The Art Station and it is doing therapy with all ages using art in the therapy sessions. It is combining the two things I love (art and creativity) and counseling into one thing! I can't wait to start and I feel like I have finally found the perfect place in life for me. I say that now but we will see after I have my first week. I will keep everyone updated on how that goes. I start at the end of May. This is going to be such an eventful year for us. I have one last year of grad school and we have a little one on the way. It will be tough to balance everything but it will work out somehow and there is no point in stressing about it. (I have never handled stress very well but with another life in my hands I am forcing myself to accept what life brings and not stress).

Shon and I decided that him and Cory were going to coach whatever sports team the kiddo decides they want to play. What a site that is going to be! Cory doesn't know yet but I am sure he would love the challenge. Especially if its a girl. How hilarious would it be for Cory and Shon to be coaching girls! Oh the plans we have in store for this kid. He/She has no idea what they are about to be brought into with this family!

Well until next time.. there is not much to update at the moment. We have about 9 weeks until we find out the gender so that will be exciting! Take care!
