Saving for College

David's sister Karen and her family gave us this Clemson piggy bank for Lima Bean. Not that Lima Bean can actually contribute money yet, but we're adding our change in there. The total as of today: 90 cents. Now if I can only get three more zeroes to go after the 90, maybe then we'll have enough to send Lima Bean to college. (All I have to say is that this kid better be getting lots of scholarships!) As for attending Clemson, well we'll see about that. I need to find some Wingate baby gear because I can't have her/him only knowing the colors orange and purple. Need to throw some blue and gold in the mix. Although I do know the first word our child will be able to spell is C-L-E-M-S-O-N.

10 weeks

In case you haven't noticed, I'm not very good at updating this thing each week. I really meant to update last Thursday after my doctor's appointment, but well, I was just plain tired.

Doc appt went well. He gave me an 'A.' Although you know me, I'm wondering why I didn't get an A+. Guess I didn't study enough. Lima Bean is still growing. That's all I can tell you. I won't have another ultrasound until 18 weeks so that's around the beginning of July. Seems far away but it should be right after we get back from the beach. (Which is 1 month, 1 week, and 1 day away as Heather informed me today).

I'm starting to feel a bit better. The nausea was an everyday occurence during weeks 6 through 8. Now it's an every other day event. And it no longer lasts all day. Which is nice because I miss being able to eat whenever I want to. I'm still dealing with the exhaustion. Today's a good day. A good day is any day that I come home and don't immediately lay down on the couch.
