Pup pictures!

Well, after the lovely snow we had, we were out of power from Saturday evening until Tuesday.  The dogs and I headed to mom's where there was power and the pups were having fun with Sadie.  Bryan stayed at the fire station which came in handy for when they got called out.
Thanksgiving was very nice, quiet and relaxing. I went to my mom's in the morning, we had linner around 3, which Bryan came for, and then we went home to relax on the couch!!
Below are pictures of the crazy pups in the snow!!!

First snow of the year

We got our first snow last night. It was mostly gone this morning but there is more coming!  Duke isn't too sure about anything falling from the sky but as usual Daisy still loves the snow! I'm hoping with the snow tomorrow I will be able to get photos or videos of the pups playing to post!

Things are going good with the pregnancy.  The rash and itch are gone but I'm still drinking the teas and washing with the drying soap to make sure it stays away! I really don't want that crap back!

So far no weird cravings or food aversions, which I guess is good.

More to come....

First Ultrasound

Today was another doctor appointment. The rash is 90% gone and took the itch with it so I'm quite excited!!! Because of the concerns with the rash and the fact that twins run in the family I was able to talk the doctor into an ultrasound!!!  The baby looks good according to the doctor so that is very good news!!  The head is on the right of the picture (which is actually the left side of my body) and then the arms and legs. Hopefully next month we can find out what we are having... boy or girl... but at least there is one!!!!

Moving right along

14 weeks and 1 day! Time is just flying by.

Luckily the rash is getting better, I'm able to sleep through the night so that is happiness, I will take the sleep while I can! Hard to say if the rash is gone for good or just for now but I will take what I can get!!

Duke likes to lay on my belly at night so we are afraid the baby will come out with Duke's paw print in his head. So far Daisy doesn't seem to notice. But I'm sure she will when we start getting baby furniture in the house. The poor princess will no longer be the baby... except maybe at the Vet's office!

PUPPP

UGH! So here we are 13.5 weeks along and I have what is called PUPPP... a rash that is typical in the 3rd trimester, and it only goes away when you give birth, if you're lucky... Its basically like poison oak all over your body - you scratch it and it spreads. Not very fun during this time. The doctors have yet to figure out any good cures and I have tried many home remedies such as pine tar soap, vinegar, teas and medicated lotions.... Most days are good, its the nights that kill me. Pretty soon I will be sleeping outside where it is 30 degrees - nice and cold... Here's hoping for a cure soon!
