Sick

So I have been so sick the past two days. Sick and pregnant just plain suck. I feel so bad for my little baby having to hear me blow my nose and cough every four minutes. "Sorry Baby...I put myself on bed rest to get better". I thought blogging might help me focus on some positive. I thought I would write the top ten things I am looking forward to before our little angel is born.

1. Getting a chance to cruise in my new Acura RDX! The other Acura was just too small for a baby.... Baby number two we are going to upgrade again to the MDX.
2. Finding out the baby's sex. I am dying with anticipation to know what is growing inside of me. Are you a boy or girl sweet baby??
3. Going to Maui in June for our last child free vacation together. It has been a great couple of years alone but next year Hawaii will be with Baby Sacco.
4. Buying baby clothes.
5. Decorating the nursery.
6. My baby shower
7. Going to San Fransisco for the Fourth of July! Speaking of, I need a cute red, white, and blue outfit...
8. Spending time with my husband. There is no one I would rather travel the world with or do nothing with...
9. Growing. I am sort of lying on this one, but hey, it is a healthy part of pregnancy.
10. Getting some warm weather!!! Am I the only one who feels San Diego is a damn ice box?? Bring me warmth please!

Pregnancy is amazing

I know it has been awhile since I have posted a blog. I have been having too much fun relaxing, hanging with Bryan, and growing my belly! If you do not already know, I quit my job. It was a must! I was so stressed out, and I all I wanted to do was savor these precious nine months and the young years of my baby. Quitting my job was the best decision I have made so far. Yes, I do love to work and I was a work-alcoholic, but now I can put all that energy into my family. Soooo worth it...and I am grateful that we are in a position to do it. The thing is I would have never tried to get pregnant unless I knew I could be with my baby every day. Life is actually quite long so in the broad spectrum of things it is only a short while that your children are young. Those hours and moments will never come back. Bottom line- our house is calmer, less stressed, and happier.

I also have to say to all those complaining pregnant women, I do not get it??? Pregnancy has so far been the best months of my life. Good and bad. I love every second that I can think about a baby growing inside of me. It is the most natural and beautiful thing a person can ever experience. I know I sound all organic and cheesy, but I mean it. I feel so blessed beyond words that I have a child on the way. What in life is more miraculous? I can care less about the acne, the sickness, and the stuff I am too embarrassed to talk about. I see it as a right of passage into motherhood.

Life is good and I feel so good pregnant!
