Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 02 January 2014

Well my Christas break is done and now I'm back to work. If it weren't for the horrible roads and the weather that's suppose to be coming later today I'd probably be jumping for joy. I'm EXHAUSTED. I thought my last pregnancy left me tired. That's going to be nothing compared to this one. For a week I did barn chores, cleaned house, tried to keep up with a toddler, and a hormonal 10 yr old. I was either sleeping or trying not to eat myself into a food coma. The good news is I didn't gain any weight so I probably needed all the calories. I didn't need the entire brick of cheese I ate yesterday or the bagel sandwiche with a giant porterhouse steak on the side.. or the 2 cherry pie thingies from the gas station before dinner. Hubby and the farm hand think I'm carrying twins because I'm eating for 3. BUT!! I didn't gain anything yet so obviously I burn more calories than I thought when I'm working around the farm.

Now that I'm back to work I'm going to try to eat better and get back to working out. The morning sickness has already started but so long as I eat something every 3 hours it seems to stay away. I had morning sickness for 6 months with little man so maybe this means its another boy.. or twin boys. I need to find some ginger altoids and stock up on crackers.
