6 Weeks Pregnant

I am just 6 weeks pregnant. I just went to my first doctors appointment, but it was nothing special. They did not even do any blood work yet. I am starting to feel really nauseous. Just the thought of some foods really make me sick like Mexican food. It is still so crazy to me that there is something growing inside of me. I don't think I will be able to believe it until my belly starts to get bigger. My next appointment is at week 10 and they said we would be able to hear the baby's heart beat then, I'm really excited!

Pregnant!

I just found out I was pregnant while we were visiting Brandon's family in Orlando at Disneyworld. I had been feeling really worn out and starving and thought it would just be fun to try a pregnancy test. I took the test way early and both Brandon and I did not think it would work, but it did! It was so surprising! We had not even been trying for more than a few weeks. I am very excited though. Ever since I got married I have been dying to be a mom. I had been debating whether to do an internship or try having a baby so I decided we could try to have a baby and if that did not work I would do my internship. But it worked so now I get to be a mom :)

Diving in Bahamas

Diving in the Bahamas was a crazy experience for me. It was my first time diving in the ocean. We were originally supposed to go on an easy lagoon dive right off of the beach by our hotel but that did not work out. We ended up having to go to the shark side of the island to do a different dive. Before going on the dive I said I would go only if we were not going to see any sharks, but my worst fear ended up coming true. We went on our first dive and I had a really hard time getting water out of my mask and seeing anything. Then when I got back on the boat I was extremely boat sick even though I had taken a dramamine. The waves were really choppy and huge. After our first dive the dive leaders said we were going to get a great suprise, we were going diving to a ship wreck where there would be lots of sharks. I was so scared! Sharks are my worst nightmare and I had no intention of going in there with all those sharks. I ended up going because I was so sick on the boat being in the water was the only way to feel better. I will admit being in the water with the sharks was not as bad as I had invisioned but it was still scary. The sharks were pretty big and there were quite a few circuling the ship wreck. All in all, the dive was tough and not my favorite experience, but now I have at least tried it.

Bahamas

Brandon and I went to the Bahams (Paradise Island) for Christmas break. It was so beautiful and warm! We got to stay really close to amazing private beaches. The weather was really good most of the time, it only rained on one day. We did not even get sunburned! My favorite part about the beaches were the really fine sand. It was so powdery. The water was not very warm but it was not freezing so we were able to get in. The only bummer about the Bahamas is how expensive the food is. The locals told us that the women get on an airplane and go to Miami to do their grocery shopping, and that is cheaper than buying food on the island. We stayed at the Comfort Suites which was right next to the huge resort Atlantis. We recieved all the same ammenities as the guests at Atlantis for half the price. We got to see the huge aquarium, go to the great waterpark, and access the beautiful beaches. It was a really fun adventure :)
