Updates

Just an update to me and how I am feeling.  The morning sickness has gone away!!!!  It left at about 14 weeks and I am now 15 and loving life again.  Dave said today I have officially started to show.  I go back and forth everyday about whether or not I am showing.  Hopefully I will soon so I don't just look chubby anymore and people will recognize I am pregnant.  Next month I am going in to find out if it is a boy or girl.  Dave wants and thinks it is a girl.  I just don't know.  The odds of a girl are pretty good considering I only have sisters and have quiet a bit of sister-in-laws.  But we shall see!!

This week I am going to be packing like crazy because Saturday we move to our new apartment.  (We will need a two bedroom for obvious reasons) I know all the warnings about lifting too much will stress the baby so I made a deal with Dave.  I pack and he does any cleaning that involves a product more intense than windex.  He will also lift and move all the boxes while I get the keys from the office and unpack what he gets moved it.  Lots of people from church are coming to help so it should all go smoothly.  Plus the area we are moving to is really close to a lot of really good friends.  I am looking forward to seeing them more often and developing closer relationships.

Also probably one of the most exciting things is Dave has a new job.  Starting tomorrow he will be working for Highland Capitol.  They are an investment manager.  They are not located downtown so hopefully Dave won't be fighting too much traffic in the morning.  Plus they have really cool perks like gym memberships so Dave will be able to work out as much as he wants.  Also, the things I didn't like before go away meaning, less crazy hours, no more traveling, no more different client locations everyday!  It will be a consistent (although very hardworking) job!

We are so excited for all of the blessing Heavenly Father has given us recently.  We are truly blessed and are very thankful for them.  We love you all and hope everyone is as blessed and happy as we are!!

Hey Diana,
It's Jenn Valenza Brandt, from freshman year! I'm so glad that I got your blog address, i'd love to stay in touch and we have a blog also so please add me as a friend! Congrats on the exciting news!!! How wonderful and exciting! I'm glad you're feeling better, because the first trimester can be rough. Well I'm also pregnant and due at the end of June!! We're having a boy and naming him Collin Michael Brandt. We're so excited! I can't wait to be a mommy. I totally understand what you're saying about going back and forth between whether you are showing or not. YOu'll do it for a little bit longer and then it'll be obvious! It is so fun to feel them move and see them move from the outside! You'll just love it. I'm excited to find out what your having and the ultrasound is so awesome! Well take care
love
Jenn
