All I can say is that there has been some major changes over here in the Koby-Mandy Bawden family. First, we sold our beloved Tommy the Toyota! We had talked about selling him since we were first married, but two things happened; Koby really didn't want to sell him (I didn't either but Koby does the selling of things, not me), so he never got put up on KSL or anything. Then when he did put Tommy on KSL no one wanted to pay Koby's minimum (I think he might have put the price a little higher just so he could say he had him for sale, but not really sale him). Well, almost a year and a half later Tommy was sold at the price Koby wanted. It was so hard for me to say good bye to him. He was the car that Koby and I went to our first date in, he drove us to the airport for our honeymoon, he heard many conversations that no one else even knew about, he was our friend. Every time I see a 4 Runner in the Gray/Blue I wish he was back with us. We miss him alot!
Another change is that we are a one car family (obviously :))! At first I hated it! I have never really had to share a car so this was hard for me. I have the car 99% of the time because I have to drive out to Sandy, Taylorsville, Salt Lake, and back to Bountiful for school and work. The only hard part now is Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have to wake up way before my alarm to take Koby to the front runner station. It's not too bad though. One bonus is that we get to spend all the extra travel time together (not that we really talk much in the mornings, but we are still together!).
School is coming to an end for us! We have been keeping crazy hours with keeping up on projects and papers and all that "fun" stuff. Koby will be completely finished with school at the end of this semester, but won't walk until the Spring. I'm pretty darn jealous of him. I have one year left and then I will be done, so I guess not too much longer!
The last major change that I can think of is a little bundle of joy (that sounds like something my mom would say) we are expecting in the beginning of June!! I am 13 weeks and FINALLY not feeling nauseated just about every half hour of the day. I haven't gained a single pound so far, which I'm not too surprised about. I haven't been able to eat sweets, only in tiny quantities, and a very select type of foods. I had my first Dr's appointment in November and everything looked good. I have my second dr appointment tomorrow (and hopefully an ultrasound). One major change I have noticed is my bra. I can't wear it on the tightest notch any more, now I wear it on the largest and I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a new one soon. Koby has been so amazing through all the ups and downs so far!! He couldn't eat frozen burritos at home for the longest time because the smell made me instantly sick. Koby tries to make me comfortable when ever I don't feel well, which is especially nice when I feel like I'm going to barf right then and there. I luckily have not thrown up but the nausea gets to a point that I almost want to to make the feeling go away! I have had a few weird breastfeeding dreams so far, but nothing too extreme.
Well that is about it for us! We'll be sure and keep ya posted on the progress! :)
