Thanksgiving Blessings

Its almost Turkey Time! I love this time of the year....I love the food, holiday parties with friends, the family gatherings and the time off work is always nice too! With Thanksgiving coming up this week I definitely have lots to be thankful for. Of course, this year, I am most thankful for our little one still growing inside. Baby Jonesie is such an amazing blessing and I thank God every day for giving us this most wonderful gift. I still can't help but think about what the doctor told us about the chances of conceiving on our own were and if we did the chances of the baby making it long enough to hear a heart beat. This baby is certainly my miracle and for that I am eternally thankful.
I'm anxiously waiting for Baby Jonesie to make his or her presence known with a kick to momma, but still none yet, although I know its still a little early. I am beginning my 15th week and go to the doctor on Tuesday for a checkup. I don't think an ultrasound will be done, but I am still so excited to hear the heart beat again. Because I can't feel the baby, the reassurance that baby is still doing well will be such a relief. I will definitely post this week on how the appointment goes.
This past week was one of my most difficult so far during my pregnancy. I was feeling awful and had to even leave work early one day. Everyone around me keeps saying, the morning sickness will go away, the nausea will go away, but I'm still waiting!!! I know I have no right to complain because I'd go through just about anything if it means bringing in a healthy baby into this world, but I do keep hoping the sickness will eventually subside and I can actually truly enjoy this pregnancy.
And finally, I am also thankful for all of you reading this, my friends and family. I hope all of you have a very Happy, Fun, Safe and YUMMY Thanksgiving!
