2. Any symptoms/ how are you feeling? My nausea has really eased up but I'm still pretty tired

5. Fun GTKY: what is the craziest weather you have ever experienced? As a child I experienced some crazy wind storms in Seattle that caused a lot of damage and while living in Atlanta the tornadoes got a little close for comfort a few times... But the strangest/craziest have been these sandstorms we get in Phoenix. When they occur, all you see is a wall of sand moving across the city... It feels like a scene out of the movie Hidalgo.

5. Fun GTKY: what is the craziest weather you have ever experienced?
5 years ago, when I was a senior in college, there was a huge ice storm across our state the week after Christmas. It was my first time visiting the little town DH is from and they didn't have power. It was a little awkward! People were without power for a long time, it was such a mess.

10 weeks, 4 days today

Not really as nauseous as I have been, but super tired and unmotivated (this is relatively new, wasn't this tired a few weeks ago so I thought I'd avoid that one altogether!)... bad acne, very sore boobs.
3. What are you doing this week to stay healthy?
I really, really, really, really need to stop eating so many carbs. That is literally all I want to eat. I need more fruits/veggies/proteins but it is so hard! Also want to get back in the gym but again, hard!
4. Anything exciting happening this week? Doesn't have to be baby related!
Not really - work is crazy busy this week... so that's great......

4. Anything exciting happening this week? (Doesn't have to be baby related!) Nothing this week.
5. Fun GTKY: what is the craziest weather you have ever experienced? The remnants of the hurricane that hit OH in Sept 2008. I was downtown when it hit - crazy debris flying everywhere!

4. Anything exciting happening this week? (Doesn't have to be baby related!) My next OB appt is now next Monday due to the Hurricane. I guess my big excitement this week will be riding out this storm.
5. Fun GTKY: what is the craziest weather you have ever experienced? Looks like my answer after the next few days will be Sandy but I live in the Northeast so in the past decade we have had a couple winter storms where it would snow feet, not inches.

5. Fun GTKY: what is the craziest weather you have ever experienced? The summer after DS was born, we had 3-4 tornado warnings within a span of a week. Thunder and lightning like I have never seen. We spent so much time in the basement and DS never woke up once
If he can sleep through those storms, he can sleep through anything! The last time happened while we were staying at a hotel in another state for a mini-vacation. We ended up in the hotel basement with hundreds of our closest friends for several hours. We ended up leaving the next day because the hotel had no water!
