I haven't had morning sickness...Thank the Lord.  I honestly have eaten us out of house and home.  I think I go to the grocery store at least every other day.  I'm not used to eating small meals.  I'm a 3 meal kind of girl so this is taking some getting used to.  I also have had several morning that I've been up at 3 or 4 o'clock eating because I feel like my stomach is touching my backbone.  My sweet husband has been wonderful.  He is so cute when he tells people that "She's going to be a mommy!"  Makes my heart smile.
