Mommy Cherish

Finally!!!

Well for those who have been waiting for me to get this started, I finally did it. Now those of you who live down in Albany can stay up to date with what's going on with the Noah Winningham household.
Faith has just started running in a strange way. She was running before now, but now she runs like she's in a marching band and doesn't really go anywhere very fast. She is also testing us to see what she can get away with. It can be very frustrating at times, but there are times where it's hard not to laugh at her. She seems to like her dad more than her mommy right now. I just tell myself it's because he's gone all day so it's a treat when he comes home for work. I have to let her talk to "daddy" on the phone whenever we talk. Sometimes we make a call after naps because she's upset if daddy isn't there when she wakes up. I'm sure it's just a phase, soon she'll be asking for mommy, right?
Faith just had her "Well Check-up" on Thursday. She weighed 30lbs and is 31.5" tall. She's in the 100% for her weight (surprise, surprise) and in the 50% for her heighth, which really did surprise me. She had always been in the 75-90% for heighth. The Dr. said she's probably just beginning to even out now.
Mommy Cherish had an appt. this week too. I didn't see the actual Dr. yet, I had to see the nurse who screens the pregnancies first. I past!! The only problem was my blood pressure was too low, which mine is usually lower than average anyways, but that explains why I 've been feeling like I'm going to pass out (75% of the time) the nurse asked how much water I was drinking and what my diet was like. I'm drinking enough water and I've been eating like I have diabetes, since I had it when I was pregnant with Faith and it's a well balanced diet, so the nurse said it's probably just something that will pass after the first trimester. She told me she passed out everyday with her second and did everything right and had to just let it pass and it did after the first trimester.
I haven't actually puked yet, although if I would just let myself I would feel much better. No, most of my troubles this time around have just been the extreme fatigue and dizziness. I'm definitly showing, there's no hiding the belly. I get looks from people at church who didn't know I was pregnant and I can tell their shocked, but afraid to look at the same time. The belly literally came the week I found out I was pregnant. 4.5 weeks along and people could tell I was pregnant. In one way it's kind of nice because I totally skip over the whole "Is she just fat or is she pregnant?" scenario.
Well I'm getting tired and should head to bed now. I'll keep you in touch with all the news up here.

Hey Cherish! It was good to hear from you. I love getting comments! I think it is really cool that you are doing a blog, since a lot of people down here will definatly want to know what is going on. Thanks for the tip about Elisha and cold, I had actually forgotten that I had read that in a book somewhere. You should post some pictures soon, so we can see the cool place you are living now, and see how Faith is doing. Oh, and so we can see your belly!! Take care!
