Bump Envy

My daily vomiting saga continues. It seems that just when I have a good day and I think my new diet is working, I have a bad day. Yesterday was a bad day. We woke up in the morning to get ready for church. I did my normal, take shower, go back to bed, then get ready routine. I was almost done getting ready, when the I started throwing up. Only this time, Daniel was also in the bathroom getting ready. So Daniel casually tried to keep fixing his hair while I puked in the background. He lasted a while before he finally admitted, "listening to this makes me want to throw up in the sink." Great, that's just what we need, more vomit in this house.
I preached a sermon in Godsearch last night, and felt like I was in and out of my nauseous state. Daniel said that he got feedback that I seemed more relaxed than ever. So, thanks baby Goulet for making me feel sick, which made me relax.
All this to say... I'm not gaining much weight. I keep saying that Baby Goulet crawled back inside, because my belly is not that big. After sharing a few pregnancy stories last night in my sermon, the most feedback I got last night was from people that could not tell I was pregnant. So, thank you Jesus that I haven't ballooned. But after 22 weeks of donating my body to baby science, it would be nice to have something to show for it. Can I get alittle "baby on board action over here?" Until then, I will look at the pregnant women around me that are due two months after me and continue to have bump envy.

The stowaway

The beginning of January Daniel and I packed up Nathan, and our best friend Joanna and headed to Florida for two weeks. We stayed with Daniel's mom in Daytona Beach for a few days. Then, my parents met us so we could all go on a cruise together; 5 glorious days of fun and food. We had a great time. Lots of sun, sand, and being waited on. We loved it. And now, it turns out, we're going to have a permanent souvenir from our trip. We brought back a stowaway....in my womb. That's right, baby Goulet #2 is on the way. I'm due October 3. Exactly three weeks before Nathans 2nd birthday. All I can say is if baby #2 looks or acts like this guy, my heart's going to explode. Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Warning: Cute overload ahead.

Ode to our awesome friend, Jenna. Jenna is our incredibly funny, caring and all around wonderful neighbor. Not only can she sing, play guitar, have great hair and tie a scarf in 25 different ways, she also can take awesome pictures. Like the pictures that she took of me while I was 9 months pregnant, anyone that can make a hugely pregnant woman look comfortable deserves a medal. She took this belly picture of me: Jenna is also chronically Nathan's growth. She came over the other night to take some Christmas card/one month old pictures. Let's just say that Nathan is not the easiest subject to work with. You have to work around the fact that he doesn't focus, has little head control, and favors looking to the right. Despite these challenges Jenna just sent us these pictures. I can barely handle the cuteness, it makes me temporarily forget the 51 pound weight gain, weeks of puking, and hours of labor. This face makes me become delusional enough to think of how many

Our family Christmas

Here is the Christmas dilema when both parents in a family are pastors and need to be at church most of the Christmas weekend...when does our family do presents???  Answer - whenever we want :)  Daniel and I decided that we love traditions and we are enjoying creating new ones for our family.  One of the traditions that we are going to do with our family is to surprise our kids with the present part of Christmas.  We really want Christmas day to be about Jesus being born.  So we thought it would be fun as they get older to pick a day for us to open presents, then surprise the kids as to when it is. This year, we decided to have our family Christmas on Friday because its our usual family day anyway.  I also decided that it would work better for our schedule to set up and wrap some last minute presents during nap time.  So when the boys woke up from their naps we had a present party. Nathan's big gift was a kitchen with play food.  Nathan is really interested in cooking and loves t
