Well since I last posted, a lot has happened. I am now a full time teacher! I teach 4th grade at a charter school in phoenix. It has been quit an experience! When they said your first year will be challenging, they were right! But at the end of the day, I love what I do!
The best and most blessed change in my life lately is the sweet baby growing in my belly! Yep, I am 14 weeks pregnant! I could not be any happier! I can't believe Nick and I are going to be parents. It is all so unreal! Nick has been such an amazing, supportive husband through all of this! Lets just say I have not had the smooth sailing kind of pregnancy! I have had every type of symptom they warn you about! The first six weeks were perfect! I felt great! but literally the day I hit six weeks, I began feeling nauseous, I was extremely tired and was so sore( you know where ladies!). I began getting worse and worse. The sickness lingered all day long! Whoever termed the word "Morning" sickness was obviously a man! because I have been sick all day, everyday! Now that I am in my 14th week, I am starting to feel some relief! I have my good and bad days. I finally gave in and started taking zofran for the nausea. It helps sometimes, but not always! ugh, I am just hoping for full relief soon! I have to say though, I would be just fine being sick for the rest of my pregnancy, I just feel so blessed to be growing this miracle inside of me!
Well that is what is happening here in the Mallaire household! I will post some belly pictures soon! as of now I haven't felt well enough to even think about taking a picture of myself, ha!
I will be back tomorrow to talk about my sweet momma! It's been 4 years since she went to be with Jesus....I can't believe that :(
Have a great Saturday! Is anybody doing anything fun? The hubby and I are off to the Daniel Tosh (from tosh.0 on comedy central) show tonight! Its the 10:30 show....hopefully this pregnant mama can stay awake :)
