Today I have officially reached the 10 week mark and am almost to the end of the first trimester. Not really any news to report and I will spare everyone all of the details of morning (and night) sickness. I have been busy with work and pageants since I found out about the baby but now things are finally starting to slow down so I can relax in the evenings and try to get more sleep. I am tired most of the time and either starving every few hours or not wanting to eat at all. I thought I was going to escape the morning sickness but for the last 2 weeks its been pretty consistent- mornings until about 10am are rough as well as before going to bed. I read an article that said eating a small bowl of grain cereal before bed helps and it has a little but I'm looking forward to this ending soon. We still haven't told that many people but the athletics department rumor mill has started going a little wild so I am making my way around to the coaches and departments that I work with to fill them in. I have met with my bosses and the good news is that we are going to add a new staff member in August to cover most of my sports while I am gone. I was really surprised to hear that considering we have been trying to grow our staff for a long time, but it will only be a 10 month position (august-may) for a recent graduate that needs experience to fill. It will be a full time internship to go along with our graduate assistant position which will also take some of my events. It puts me at ease a little knowing that there will be another body here to help but I still have a lot to get done for my sports before the baby comes.
The most popular question we get is "are you going to find out what you are having?" We haven't decided on that yet but feel free to make your guess in our football player or cheerleader poll. If we do decide to find out early, it wont be until our May doctors visit but we want to see what you think! More updates to come, maybe the next one will feature some photos of a growing belly... the pants are starting to get a little tight :)
