Chocolate - no thank you!

Hello All -

I figured it is about time for me to post a blog and not let Brad do all of the talking.

Yes, I am now 7 weeks pregnant. We are both very excited although I am also nervous about all of the changes that will be occurring with my body and otherwise in the upcoming months.

So far I have been feeling pretty good - just a little nauseous and "foggy" in the morning. The biggest change I have noticed is how tired I am! I feel like I could sleep and lay around all day! Thank goodness for the Holidays so that I have been able to do a lot of resting.

The other interesting thing is food cravings. I have not wanted anything to do with chocolate or sweets (which is a huge change for me!) but love oranges, salty foods, and lasagna. Hmmm - it is strange all the changes that pregnancy brings - even so early!

That is all for now - Have a Happy New Year!

Kirsten

Hi Kirsten and Brad,

I will be the first to respond to your newly formed blog. How fun. There is no one more excited than this "grandma" to be a grandma. You two will be great parents and your little il bambino or la bambina will be very lucky. By the way in Italian grandmother is la nonna. So officially I am going to be la nonna in about 7 months. I will try hard to become "fit" for the fun and challenge of being a grandma. I won't practice for a marathon, but will work on my cardiovascular and strength-tee-hee. Thank you for the clever and sweet way you announced this news. We are truly overjoyed!! Take care of yourselves. Love, Mom
