This morning sickness is really making my attitude struggle. Like, it’s discouraging! I am not super sick, nor super tired. But I am sick enough and tired enough that it’s hard to do anything! And it kinda just lasts all day from when I get up to when I go to bed. I want to be really happy about this pregnancy and every once in awhile, the miracle of life just breaks in on me and I am overjoyed! Sometimes though, I just want to feel successful about parenting the kids I have and keeping up with housework. I’m leaning pretty hard on Brian these days and he has been AMAZING! Please pray that his energy will keep up and I will be more at peace with my sloooooooowness. I have good times though – maybe they will become more frequent. I think I’m 7 weeks tomorrow… I can do this!

About Us
We’re just a typical, atypical family in the Pacific Northwest. We homeschool, love Jesus and are learning as we go.
We have three beautiful daughters, born in 2007, 2009 and 2012 and two handsome sons, born in 2009 and 2013. (My sons are Bulgarian – arriving home in 2011 and 2017. If you’re curious about Bulgarian adoptions, I blogged about our experience.).
After learning about the need for adoptive families of children with disabilities, (and here and here) we began the process to adopt our son Jordan (who has Down Syndrome). He arrived home on December 3rd, 2011!. We were in process for Daniel (who has arthrogryposis) January-October 2017. You can see photos from our trips to Bulgaria by looking at June and Nov/Dec 2011 archives and May and October 2017.

Yes, you can do it! As you know from my previous comment describing what pregnancy is like for me, I can totally relate. Not excessively sick, not excessively tired but enough of those that everything requires tons of effort, and I would rather have holed up somewhere with a good book. I too relied a lot on Allan (and many days still do!) Praying for strength and peace for both of you. You are growing a human baby – it’s okay to be tired! (love the little baby animation at the side, by the way!)
Well at least you can get around ok!! 🙂 I’ll be praying for you. It’s hard to let yourself slloooooooow down and everything change, but it’s oh for such a good reason! And thank the Lord, it is only for a season! Let all other projects and pursuits take a rest, and let baby grow all of her/his precious little self! You’ll be back at it again in no time.
