Fetus Fund

This is mine and Zac's piggy bank...aka fetus fund...why do we call it the fetus fund??? Well a little over 3 months ago I took 4 of these...

We thought it was too good to be true so I took 4 of these lovely things and they all said the same thing...POSITIVE...VERY EXCITING!!!!

And this is our little one. I am officially 14 weeks. We went to the doctor at 9 weeks and got this picture of our little peanut aka Baby Eureka or Baby Bissell as some have said...lol!! We got to hear the baby's heart beat last week and that was really cool. It sounded like a galluping horse:) This is one of the main reasons I was sooo sad that I lost my job. Im due Sept 14th, (which is also Zac's bday) and if I still had my job I would have had 12 weeks paid maternity leave and in addition I would have been paid my same salary with the short term disability I had, oh well. We now save every piece of change and put it into the fetus fund! Ive been able to work more hours at the hospital which is good. Loosing my job has been really frustrating but we also feel extremely blessed to be able to have this baby and for me to be able to work more hours at the hospital. We dont have extra money to save like before but we will work it out!! We cant wait until Sept...and I cant wait until I stop throwing up!!

I was so excited when Linz texted me on Friday!!! And I am laughing that you took four tests. You are hilarious. Hopefully you'll feel better soon. I won't tell you that with Connor I was nauseous for 8 months ; )

Hi Tia it's Cara Hansen from Utah! Congratulations to the both of you I'm really excited for you! Being pregnant really sucks at times. The throwing up will stop, but then other not so fun things will start. Sorry but it doesn't end til the baby comes out!! Take care & for sure keep in touch!!

I'm still so excited about the news. Wish I lived closer to you so that I could hold your hair back when you throw up like you did with me! You are the BEST! And I hope you are reading "Michelle and Debra" often.(only you would get this)ha ha.

Congrats you guys!! I am so excited for this sweet little baby to come. I hope it will be 9/10 because that's Madisen's B-day!! :) Anyway, I also lost my job when I was prego with Madisen and was COMPLETELY freaked out about it, but it all worked out in the end. Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you stronger :)

Congratulations Tia. That is so exciting! We just had our daughter 4 months ago and it is seriously the best thing ever! I am so happy for you. If you don't mind, I'll let Katie know next time I talk to her. She'll be thrilled! I loved being pregnant. And in the end you forget about all the bad/uncomfortable stuff and it is totally worth it!
